Mind the Gap: Rethinking I/O Design for Contact-Rich Visuomotor Policy Learning

Contact-rich teleoperation logs expose a policy I/O design choice: demonstrations may contain the robot execution (E), leader command (C), or both. These signals are not interchangeable: E2E may discard contact-generating command offsets, whereas E2C preserves these offsets but omits the robot's execution response. We propose Dual-State Conditioning (EC2C), which conditions on both E and C while predicting future C, exposing command-execution mismatch as a cue for contact, latency, payload, and operator compensation; in quasi-static contact, this cue is often force-correlated. On a low-cost setup without force, tactile, or motor-current policy input, EC2C outperforms E2E and a strong E2C baseline across several real-world contact-rich, force-sensitive, and dynamic tasks. These results support EC2C as a practical default I/O setting for contact-rich imitation learning. We further formulate latency-adaptive inpainting as a temporal extension of this I/O choice for action-chunking policies, and discuss when long histories help dynamic inference or introduce causal confounding.

FunduSAM: A Specialized Deep Learning Model for Enhanced Optic Disc and Cup Segmentation in Fundus Images

The Segment Anything Model (SAM) has gained popularity as a versatile image segmentation method, thanks to its strong generalization capabilities across various domains. However, when applied to optic disc (OD) and optic cup (OC) segmentation tasks, SAM encounters challenges due to the complex structures, low contrast, and blurred boundaries typical of fundus images, leading to suboptimal performance. To overcome these challenges, we introduce a novel model, FunduSAM, which incorporates several Adapters into SAM to create a deep network specifically designed for OD and OC segmentation. The FunduSAM utilizes Adapter into each transformer block after encoder for parameter fine-tuning (PEFT). It enhances SAM's feature extraction capabilities by designing a Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM), addressing issues related to blurred boundaries and low contrast. Given the unique requirements of OD and OC segmentation, polar transformation is used to convert the original fundus OD images into a format better suited for training and evaluating FunduSAM. A joint loss is used to achieve structure preservation between the OD and OC, while accurate segmentation. Extensive experiments on the REFUGE dataset, comprising 1,200 fundus images, demonstrate the superior performance of FunduSAM compared to five mainstream approaches.
