RAPID reconstructs an interactive simulation environment from a demonstration and infers three components needed for agentic code refinement: a testable task specification, robot action primitives and a program that composes those primitives.

Why this paper

From NVIDIA and 3 others

In one line

RAPID automatically generates, verifies, and refines robot programs from a single visual demonstration, generalizing across object and scene variations using object-centric relational representations.
