arXiv:2604. 00767v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Wearable human activity recognition (HAR) has made steady progress, yet much of this progress remains grounded in fixed-window, closed-set classification benchmarks.
PDRVLA is a Vision‑Language‑Action model that incorporates a lightweight Physical Dynamics Module to extract physical tokens from vision‑language features, enabling action generation without online video synthesis. The module predicts future RGB, depth, and optical‑flow features, guided by auxiliary supervision from a frozen pretrained video world model. Trained solely on publicly available data augmented with human‑to‑robot synthesis, subtask annotation, and embodied chain‑of‑thought (ECoT) annotation, PDRVLA achieves high success rates across four simulation benchmarks, with ablations demonstrating the benefits of world‑model supervision and various conditioning strategies.

arXiv:2607. 14543v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly used as the reasoning backbone of embodied agents, enabling robots to interpret visual scenes, follow language instructions, and plan multi-step actions.
As AI systems increasingly assist humans in physical tasks, ensuring safety becomes paramount -- physical actions carry immediate and irreversible consequences that digital errors do not. We introduce the Vision-Language Embodied Safety Agent (VLESA), a framework that monitors human activities from egocentric video and triggers real-time safety interventions when dangerous actions are predicted.
