MOMASPLAT: Dynamic Novel-View Demonstration Augmentation for Mobile Manipulation

MOMASPLAT: Dynamic Novel-View Demonstration Augmentation for Mobile Manipulation

Summary

This research presents MOMASPLAT, a framework designed to augment demonstration data for mobile manipulation by synthesizing trajectories from unseen robot base poses. The method combines 3D Gaussian Splatting and feed-forward 3D foundation models to reconstruct static scenes and manipulated objects in 3D, enabling the generation of geometrically consistent synthetic demonstrations. Evaluated on five real-world tasks involving rigid and articulated objects across three scenes, MOMASPLAT demonstrates improved robustness to navigation uncertainty and localization drift, more than doubling the average success rate of baseline methods while reducing the need for large-scale data collection.

Editorial context

The paper introduces MOMASPLAT, a framework that uses 3D Gaussian Splatting and foundation models to synthesize novel-view demonstrations for mobile manipulation tasks, addressing viewpoint sensitivity in imitation learning by reconstructing both static scenes and dynamic objects.

proaches use novel-view synthesis (NVS) to augment demonstrations with unseen viewpoints, but they assume static scenes and therefore fail to re-render the manipulated object during the post-contact interaction phase, leaving the most critical parts of the demonstration unaugmented. We present MOMASPLAT, a novel-view demonstration augmentation framework for mobile manipulation that synthesizes full manipulation traje
