Prior Evolution and Task Alignment for Aerial Grasping

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 16, 2026 · UTC

Aerial grasping is a remarkable capability exhibited by predatory birds, allowing them to capture prey through highly coordinated maneuvers in flight. Inspired by this capability, researchers have developed various formulations to reproduce such maneuvers through trajectory optimization. However, two limitations remain in practice. First, the resulting optimization problem is highly nonconvex and sensitive to initialization, making high-quality solutions difficult to obtain under a limited computational budget. Second, prescribed numerical objectives are human-designed abstractions that descri
