AI 中文摘要
标准化基准在推动机器人操作学习发展中发挥了核心作用,但多数聚焦于地面支撑的操作系统,这限制了其在动态至关重要的领域(如空中操作AM)的适用性。AM面临独特的系统级挑战,包括环境干扰、操作器与浮动基座间的耦合动力学以及受限的自由度,因此任务性能取决于机器人实体、低层控制与高层策略设计的共同作用。我们提出AM-Bench,这是一款面向多旋翼AM策略学习的模块化仿真套件与基准,涵盖欠驱动、全驱动与过驱动等代表性实体,包含接触、运输与约束交互类共12项任务,可配置气动干扰与执行器饱和、提供标准低层控制器及基线策略学习算法。与主要强调端到端策略性能的现有操作基准不同,AM-Bench可对实体、控制、干扰及策略选择的相互作用进行系统级评估。我们通过三项仿真研究(涵盖高层策略、策略-控制接口及实体)展示其诊断价值,并对建模效果进行了实际验证,同时完成了学习流程的硬件测试。
英文摘要
Standardized benchmarks have played a central role in advancing robot manipulation learning, yet most focus on ground-supported manipulation systems, which limits their applicability to dynamics-critical domains such as aerial manipulation (AM). AM presents distinct system-level challenges, including environmental disturbances, coupled dynamics between the manipulator and floating base, and constrained degrees of freedom. Consequently, task performance depends jointly on robot embodiment, low-level control, and high-level policy design. We introduce AM-Bench, a modular simulation suite and benchmark for multirotor-based AM policy learning. AM-Bench includes representative embodiments spanning underactuated, fully actuated, and overactuated systems, 12 tasks across contact, transport, and constrained interaction, configurable aerodynamic disturbances and actuator saturation, standard low-level controllers, and baseline policy-learning algorithms. Unlike prior manipulation benchmarks that primarily emphasize end-to-end policy performance, AM-Bench enables system-level evaluation of how embodiment, control, disturbances, and policy choices interact. We demonstrate its diagnostic value through three simulation studies spanning high-level policies, policy--control interfaces, and embodiments, together with real-world validation of modeled effects and a hardware test of the learning pipeline.
