FlowHOI: Flow-based Semantics-Grounded Generation of Hand-Object Interactions for Dexterous Robot Manipulation

FlowHOI: Flow-based Semantics-Grounded Generation of Hand-Object Interactions for Dexterous Robot Manipulation

Summary

This paper proposes FlowHOI, a two-stage flow-matching framework that generates temporally coherent hand-object interaction sequences for dexterous robot manipulation. It conditions on egocentric observations, language instructions, and 3D Gaussian splatting scene reconstructions, achieving higher action recognition accuracy and physics simulation success rates than diffusion-based baselines, with real-robot execution demonstrated on four tasks.

Editorial context

FlowHOI introduces a two-stage flow-matching framework for generating semantically grounded hand-object interaction sequences, improving action recognition accuracy and physics simulation success rates over diffusion-based baselines while enabling real-robot execution.

To address the scarcity of high-fidelity HOI supervision, we introduce a reconstruction pipeline that recovers aligned hand-object trajectories and meshes from large-scale egocentric videos, yielding an HOI

We propose FlowHOI, a two-stage flow-matching framework that generates semantically grounded, temporally coherent HOI sequences, comprising hand poses, object poses, and hand-object contact states, conditioned on an egocentric observation, a language instruction, and a 3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS) scene reconstruction. We decouple geometry-centric grasping from semantics-centric manipula
