    Passive-Dynamic-Walking-Inspired Dynamics Guidance for Energy-Efficient Humanoid Locomotion

    This paper proposes a framework inspired by passive dynamic walking (PDW) to achieve energy-efficient humanoid locomotion. By creating slope-equivalent conditions and removing PDW-specific guidance during optimization, the framework reduces mechanical cost of transport by 6.8-15.2% in simulated experiments and 16.3% on hardware with a motion prior, without degrading velocity tracking.

    The team at ETH Robotic Systems Lab demonstrated high-speed rough-terrain locomotion on ANYmal using an automatic curriculum learning approach called LP-ACRL. This method dynamically samples terrain types, difficulty levels, and velocity commands based on policy performance, without requiring pre-defined training sequences. The work was presented at RAL 2026.

    Editorial context：The work introduces LP-ACRL, a curriculum learning framework that automatically samples terrain types, difficulty levels, and velocity commands based on policy performance, eliminating the need for pre-defined training sequences.
