DexDiffuser: Generating Dexterous Grasps with Diffusion Models
We introduce DexDiffuser, a novel dexterous grasping method that generates, evaluates, and refines grasps on partial object point clouds. DexDiffuser includes the conditional diffusion-based grasp sampler DexSampler and the dexterous grasp evaluator DexEvaluator. DexSampler generates high-quality grasps conditioned on object point clouds by iterative denoising of randomly sampled grasps. We also introduce two grasp refinement strategies: Evaluator-Guided Diffusion (EGD) and Evaluator-based Sampling Refinement (ESR). Our simulation and real-world experiments on the Allegro Hand consistently demonstrate that DexDiffuser outperforms the state-of-the-art multi-finger grasp generation method FFHNet with an, on average, 21.71--22.20\% higher grasp success rate.
