    • Adaptive Abstractions for Robust Hierarchical Manipulation Planning 

      Noseworthy, Michael S. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)
      In this thesis, we address the problem of long-horizon robotic manipulation under partial observability. Tasks such as gearbox assembly or tidying a workstation involve many objects and necessitate a variety of manipulation ...

    • Methods for Generalization Under Distribution Shift 

      Netanyahu, Aviv (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)
      Machine learning systems have achieved remarkable performance in tasks where test data closely resembles the training distribution. However, real-world applications often require systems capable of handling more challenging ...

    • Scaling 3D Scene Perception via Probabilistic Programming 

      Gothoskar, Nishad (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)
      Understanding and interpreting the 3D structure of the world is a central challenge in artificial intelligence. Our physical world is 3D, yet our AI systems often “see” that world through pixels and images. In order to ...
