Towards Robust Prehensile Manipulation in Open-Ended Environments

arXiv:2610.06376v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose to use Quality-Diversity (QD) algorithms to solve robotic prehensile manipulation tasks in open-ended environments. Our approach enables the efficient discovery of a wide range robust grasp configurations, which serve as reliable starting points for generating diverse prehensile manipulation trajectories on articulated objects. The resulting diversity in manipulation behaviors enhances generalization and adaptability, enabling effective deployment continuously evolving open-world settings.
