Abstract:In this paper, we propose a method that applies Inertial-Leg (IL) tokenization to an attention-based network for proprioceptive state estimation in legged robots. Unlike existing learning-based state estimators that concatenate all sensor measurements into a single flat vector, the proposed architecture represents inertial measurements and leg-wise measurements as individual tokens and uses an attention mechanism to learn the relative importance of each this http URL design allows the network to reweight each measurement according to the current contact condition, reflecting the fact that the reliability of forward kinematic measurements depends on whether the corresponding foot is in contact. Unlike conventional contact-aided estimators, however, the proposed method learns this behavior without relying on an explicit contact estimator or on explicit measurement updates based on a stationary contact assumption. To validate the proposed method, we conducted experiments on a Unitree Go1 robot, including debris terrain not modeled in simulation and gait patterns not seen during training. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves better estimation performance than existing learning-based state estimators under unseen gait patterns and also improves performance over contact-aided model-based methods.
