MolmoAct2: Action Reasoning Models for Real-world Deployment

Yi Ru Wang's public personal site describes her as a University of Washington Ph.D. student in computer science and engineering working on robot learning and manipulation.

Ranjay Krishna works at the intersection of computer vision, natural language processing, robotics, and human-computer interaction.

Studies embodied AI, computer vision, and robotics, and previously completed a BS at the University of Washington with majors in computer science and statistics.

Ai2's PRIOR profile says he earned a BS in 3D Art and Animation from the University of Idaho in 2012, and public AI2 project pages credit him on AI2-THOR and ManipulaTHOR.

Winson Han's public site says he works in embodied AI as a game designer on PRIOR at Ai2. Public publication listings connect him to simulation and embodied AI work including ProcTHOR and related projects.

Rose Hendrix is a research scientist on PRIOR at Ai2. PRIOR's public profile says she earned a PhD in mechanical engineering at the University of Washington and works on reinforcement learning and embodied AI.

CEO of the Allen Institute for AI and professor of computer science at the University of Washington. His work spans computer vision, multimodal learning, reasoning, and embodied AI.

Dieter Fox is a professor in the Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Washington. His homepage says he is now sharing his time between UW and Ai2 and that he received his PhD from the University of Bonn in 1998.

Author of the MolmoAct report. The paper lists Jiafei Duan with Allen Institute for AI and the University of Washington, and credits Duan with leading the project, curating the MolmoAct Dataset, leading the paper writing, and designing simulation and real-world evaluations.
