Stairway to Success: Zero-Shot Floor-Aware Object-Goal Navigation via LLM-Driven Coarse-to-Fine Exploration
Object-Goal Navigation (OGN) remains challenging in real-world, multi-floor environments and under open-vocabulary object descriptions. We observe that most episodes in widely used benchmarks such as HM3D and MP3D involve multi-floor buildings, with many requiring explicit floor transitions. However, existing methods are often limited to single-floor settings or predefined object categories. To address these limitations, we tackle two key challenges: (1) efficient cross-level planning and (2) z…

What is Past is Prologue:
#Paleoclimate constraints on #ECS Equilibrium #ClimateSensitivity #GreenhouseGas sensitivity of Earth's #Climate
First of 3 papers this summer.
My career trajectory has been building towards using past climate archives to narrow the possibilities of future climate. But it is HARD. And computationally expensive.
The next two papers of this project will rule out some high and low sensitivity simulations using Past Climate (Proxy) archives and Data Assimilation. Those should be out in preprint in the next couple of months.
We hope this project (first to constrain earth climate sensitivity using coupled atmosphere-ocean earth system models) will be streamlined in the future and applied widely.
