用视觉语言模型识别机器人执行任务时的语义错误,提升真实环境下的鲁棒性。

I-FailSense: Towards General Robotic Failure Detection with Vision-Language Models

  • 基于现有数据构建语义错配失败数据集,训练轻量分类头融合多层特征。
  • 在语义错配检测上超越同类模型,在多种场景下实现零样本迁移。
  • 开源框架支持真实世界部署,适合需要自主故障检测的机器人研究者。

开放世界中语言驱动的机器人操作不仅需要精准执行任务,还需具备故障检测能力以保障实际应用的可靠性。尽管视觉语言模型(VLMs)显著提升了机器人的空间推理与任务规划能力,但在识别自身错误方面仍存在局限,尤其难以发现语义错配失败——即机器人执行了语义合理但与指令不一致的操作。为此,本文从现有语言条件操作数据集中构建针对语义错配失败的数据集,并提出 I-FailSense,一个专为故障检测设计的开源 VLM 框架,采用基于接地仲裁的架构。方法通过微调基础 VLM,再在不同内部层添加轻量级分类头(称作 FS blocks),并通过集成机制聚合预测结果。实验表明,I-FailSense 在语义错配检测上优于同等规模及更大规模的先进 VLM,且仅在语义错配数据上训练即可泛化至更广泛的故障类别,有效迁移至其他仿真环境与真实场景,支持零样本或极小量后训练。相关数据集与模型已公开发布于 HuggingFace(网页:https://clemgris.github.io/I-FailSense/)。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Language-conditioned robotic manipulation in open-world settings requires not only accurate task execution but also the ability to detect failures for robust deployment in real-world environments. Although recent advances in vision-language models (VLMs) have significantly improved the spatial reasoning and task-planning capabilities of robots, they remain limited in their ability to recognize their own failures. In particular, a critical yet underexplored challenge lies in detecting semantic misalignment errors, where the robot executes a task that is semantically meaningful but inconsistent with the given instruction. To address this, we propose a method for building datasets targeting Semantic Misalignment Failures detection, from existing language-conditioned manipulation datasets. We also present I-FailSense, an open-source VLM framework with grounded arbitration designed specifically for failure detection. Our approach relies on post-training a base VLM, followed by training lightweight classification heads, called FS blocks, attached to different internal layers of the VLM and whose predictions are aggregated using an ensembling mechanism. Experiments show that I-FailSense outperforms state-of-the-art VLMs, both comparable in size and larger, in detecting semantic misalignment errors. Notably, despite being trained only on semantic misalignment detection, I-FailSense generalizes to broader robotic failure categories and effectively transfers to other simulation environments and real-world with zero-shot or minimal post-training. The datasets and models are publicly released on HuggingFace (Webpage: https://clemgris.github.io/I-FailSense/).
