OpenBelief-Nav: Evidence-Preserving Object Memory for Open-Vocabulary Language-Guided Navigation

Open-vocabulary 3D scene graphs provide compact semantic memory for language-guided navigation, but mapped objects are often exposed through a single fused feature or committed semantic label. Such commitment can remove minority yet task-relevant hypotheses from the task-time interface. We present OpenBelief-Nav, an evidence-preserving object memory that retains observation-level phrases, reliability cues, and frame-mask provenance while maintaining separate aggregate geometric and visual representations. Semantically related phrases are consolidated into a vocabulary-independent object belief from which task-specific readouts perform fixed-vocabulary projection or free-form retrieval. On five ScanNet200 and eight Replica scenes, full-belief projection achieves mIoU scores of 0.2742 and 0.2912, compared with 0.2393 and 0.2701 for a matched early-commit readout. Across 78 HM3D-YCB navigation trials, consensus and early-commit retrieval each achieve 60/78 successes, compared with 58/78 for belief-weighted retrieval and 55/78 for DualMap. Across 20 Unitree G1 runs organized as 10 matched evaluation cases, a correction policy permitting at most two verified candidate attempts improves target-confirmation success from 6/10 to 8/10 relative to top-1-only execution. Code will be released upon acceptance at https://openbelief-nav.github.io/.

Speech2Grasp: Data-Efficient Transfer of Text-Conditioned Grasp Detection to Speech in Humanoid Robots

Humanoid robots increasingly require multi-modal understanding for natural interaction with humans. Despite the prominence of vision-language models, they generally assume textual rather than the more natural speech inputs. In this paper, we investigate whether a well-established text-conditioned model can be transferred to speech in a data-efficient manner. Using ALBEF as a case study, we conduct diagnostic analyses showing that a lightweight MLP-based projector effectively adapts it to speech, while preserving semantic discrimination and robustness. Motivated by these findings, we introduce Speech2Grasp, a framework for data-efficient transfer of text-conditioned grasp detection to speech. Real-world humanoid robot experiments show that Speech2Grasp outperforms cascaded ASR-based pipeline, while reducing inference latency. Our findings suggest a practical paradigm for extending established text-conditioned systems to speech.

A Simple View on Large-Signal Resonant-Tunneling-Diode Dynamics

We present a model for an accurate description of the large-signal resonant-tunneling-diode (RTD) dynamics, which allows for a simple and intuitive analysis in terms of dynamical trajectories in a phase space. We show that the RTD admittance can be accurately described by a simple RLRC equivalent circuit, which has a universal configuration, but with different circuit parameters in the large- and small-signal cases.
