Object-grounded embodied picking for e-commerce warehouse fulfillment: a foveated diffusion policy for operational robustness
Embodied picking for e-commerce fulfillment remains vulnerable to dense clutter, reflective packaging, and background variation, which can undermine the effectiveness and robustness of visuomotor policies learned from demonstrations. A key limitation is the absence of explicit object grounding, causing policies to exploit spurious contextual cues rather than task-relevant visual evidence. To address this issue, we propose the Foveated Diffusion Policy (FDP), which integrates object-centric visua
