CLAW: Composable Language-Annotated Whole-body Motion Generation

Jianuo Cao, Yuxin Chen, Masayoshi Tomizuka

Training language-conditioned whole-body controllers for humanoid robots demands large-scale motion-language datasets. Existing approaches based on motion capture are costly and limited in diversity, while text-to-motion generative models produce purely kinematic outputs that are not guaranteed to be physically feasible. We present CLAW, a pipeline for scalable generation of language-annotated whole-body motion data for the Unitree G1 humanoid robot. CLAW composes motion primitives from a kinematic planner, parameterized by movement, heading, speed, pelvis height, and duration, and provides two browser-based interfaces--a real-time keyboard mode and a timeline-based sequence editor--for exploratory and batch data collection. A low-level controller tracks these references in MuJoCo simulation, yielding physically grounded trajectories. In parallel, a template-based engine generates diverse natural-language annotations at both segment and trajectory levels. To support scalable generation of motion-language paired data for humanoid robot learning, we make our system publicly available at: https://github.com/JianuoCao/CLAW

FormalML: A Benchmark for Evaluating Formal Subgoal Completion in Machine Learning Theory

Xiao-Wen Yang, Zihao Zhang, Jianuo Cao et al.

Large language models (LLMs) have recently demonstrated remarkable progress in formal theorem proving. Yet their ability to serve as practical assistants for mathematicians, filling in missing steps within complex proofs, remains underexplored. We identify this challenge as the task of subgoal completion, where an LLM must discharge short but nontrivial proof obligations left unresolved in a human-provided sketch. To study this problem, we introduce FormalML, a Lean 4 benchmark built from foundational theories of machine learning. Using a translation tactic that converts procedural proofs into declarative form, we extract 4937 problems spanning optimization and probability inequalities, with varying levels of difficulty. FormalML is the first subgoal completion benchmark to combine premise retrieval and complex research-level contexts. Evaluation of state-of-the-art provers highlights persistent limitations in accuracy and efficiency, underscoring the need for more capable LLM-based theorem provers for effective subgoal completion,
