Researchers have developed LHM-Humanoid, a novel physics-based control system for simulated humanoids designed for continuous, long-horizon object transport in cluttered environments. Unlike previous methods that rely on short, reset-based clips, LHM-Humanoid enables a single, uninterrupted sequence of actions, including repeatedly fetching, carrying, and placing objects. The system addresses the challenge of transitioning between these actions by learning to recover balance and ensure a smooth continuation from each placement, outperforming existing end-to-end and hierarchical reinforcement learning techniques across various cluttered scenes.
