Abstract

The widespread adoption of IoT has driven the development of cyber-physical systems (CPS) in industrial environments, leveraging Industrial IoTs (IIoTs) to automate manufacturing processes and enhance productivity. The transition to autonomous systems introduces significant operational costs, particularly in terms of energy consumption. Accurate modeling and prediction of IIoT energy requirements are critical, but traditional physics- and engineering-based approaches often fall short in addressing these challenges comprehensively. In this paper, we propose a novel methodology for benchmarking and analyzing IIoT devices and applications to uncover insights into their power demands, energy consumption, and performance. To demonstrate this methodology, we develop a comprehensive framework and apply it to study an industrial CPS comprising an educational robotic arm, a conveyor belt, a smart camera, and a compute node. By creating micro-benchmarks and an end-to-end application within this framework, we create an extensive performance and power consumption dataset, which we use to train and analyze ML models for predicting energy usage from features of the application and the CPS system. The proposed methodology and framework provide valuable insights into the energy dynamics of industrial CPS, offering practical implications for researchers and practitioners aiming to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of IIoT-driven automation.

Physics-Guided Residual Reinforcement Learning for Humanoid Narrow-Path Traversal

Traversing narrow paths is challenging for humanoid robots due to the sparse and safety-critical footholds required. Purely template-based or end-to-end reinforcement learning-based methods suffer from such harsh terrains. This paper proposes a two stage training framework for such narrow path traversing tasks, coupling a template-based foothold planner with a low-level foothold tracker from Stage-I training and a lightweight perception aided foothold modifier from Stage-II training. With the curriculum setup from flat ground to narrow paths across stages, the resulted controller in turn learns to robustly track and safely modify foothold targets to ensure precise foot placement over narrow paths. This framework preserves the interpretability from the physics-based template and takes advantage of the generalization capability from reinforcement learning, resulting in easy sim-to-real transfer. The learned policies outperform purely template-based or reinforcement learning-based baselines in terms of success rate, centerline adherence and safety margins. Validation on a Unitree G1 humanoid robot yields successful traversal of a 0.2m wide and 3m long beam for 20 trials without any failure.

HERMES: A Holistic End-to-End Risk-Aware Multimodal Embodied System with Vision-Language Models for Long-Tail Autonomous Driving

End-to-end autonomous driving models increasingly benefit from large vision-language models for semantic understanding, yet safe and reliable planning under long-tail conditions remains challenging, particularly in mixed-traffic environments involving heterogeneous road users and rare safety-critical interactions. This paper proposes HERMES, a holistic risk-aware end-to-end multimodal driving framework that explicitly incorporates long-tail semantic knowledge into trajectory planning. HERMES employs a foundation-model-assisted annotation pipeline to construct structured Long-Tail Scene Context and Long-Tail Planning Context, capturing hazard-centric scene information, maneuver intent, and risk-aware planning guidance. A Tri-Modal Driving Module then integrates multi-view visual observations, historical ego-motion, and long-tail semantic instructions through intent- and risk-aware conditioning for trajectory generation. Extensive experiments on a large-scale real-world long-tail driving benchmark demonstrate consistent improvements over representative recent baselines in overall planning performance and across diverse safety-critical scenarios. Ablation studies further validate the effectiveness and complementary roles of the major components within HERMES.

StageCraft: Execution Aware Mitigation of Distractor and Obstruction Failures in VLA Models

Large scale pre-training on text and image data along with diverse robot demonstrations has helped Vision Language Action models (VLAs) to generalize to novel tasks, objects and scenes. However, these models are still susceptible to failure in the presence of execution-time impediments such as distractors and physical obstructions in the robot's workspace. Existing policy improvement methods finetune base VLAs to improve generalization, yet they still struggle in unseen distractor settings. To address this problem, we investigate whether internet-scale pretraining of large vision-language models (VLMs) can be leveraged to reason about these impediments and mitigate policy failures. To this end, we propose StageCraft, a training-free approach to improve pretrained VLA policy performance by manipulating the environment's initial state using VLM-based in-context reasoning. StageCraft takes policy rollout videos and success labels as input and leverages VLM's reasoning ability to infer which objects in the initial state need to be manipulated to avoid anticipated execution failures. StageCraft is an extensible plug-and-play module that does not introduce additional constraints on the underlying policy, and only requires a few policy rollouts to work. We evaluate performance of state-of-the-art VLA models with StageCraft and show an absolute 40% performance improvement across three real world task domains involving diverse distractors and obstructions. Our simulation experiments in RLBench empirically show that StageCraft tailors its extent of intervention based on the strength of the underlying policy and improves its performance with more in-context samples.
