pi05_franka_haply_absjointpos

π₀.₅ — absolute joint-position control on franka_haply_joint_delta

π₀.₅ fine-tuned on Haply-teleoperated Franka demonstrations, predicting absolute joint positions. Checkpoint taken at the step with the lowest eval loss.

Action space

8-dimensional, from the dataset's action_absolute_joint_position column:

These are absolute targets, not deltas — despite the dataset being named franka_haply_joint_delta, which refers to its default action column. Order is the contract: feeding this model joint deltas, or a Cartesian action space, produces plausible-looking nonsense rather than an error. The source dataset publishes the authoritative axis names as joint_position_0 … joint_position_6, gripper.

Observations are three 224×224 RGB cameras (observation.images.base_0_rgb, observation.images.base_1_rgb, observation.images.left_wrist_0_rgb) plus an 8-dim observation.state. empty_cameras=0 — the three cameras exactly fill π₀.₅'s three image slots, with no masked padding.

chunk_size=50 and n_action_steps=50 are pi05_base's own defaults. At 20 fps that is 2.5 s of predicted motion, executed open-loop in full before re-planning. Lower n_action_steps at inference for tighter closed-loop control; it does not affect the weights.

Usage

from lerobot.policies.pi05.modeling_pi05 import PI05Policy

policy = PI05Policy.from_pretrained("arkojit1/pi05_franka_haply_absjointpos")

Requires access to the gated google/paligemma-3b-pt-224 repo — the preprocessor loads its tokenizer by id. Accept the license there first and make sure HF_TOKEN is set.

Training

Global batch 256 across 8×MI300X (RCCL DDP, 32 per GPU), learning rate 2.5e-5 with a cosine schedule, bf16 with gradient checkpointing, quantile normalisation of state and action, image augmentation on the train split only. 84 train / 10 eval episodes.

eval_loss is the training objective evaluated on held-out episodes — not a success rate. With only ~10 held-out episodes it is correspondingly noisy; treat differences of a few percent as unresolved.
