Cortex: A Bidirectionally Aligned Embodied Agent Framework for Long-horizon Manipulation

arXiv:2607. 05377v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While recent Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models show promise toward generalist manipulation policies, they struggle with long-horizon tasks due to their Markovian nature-relying solely on current observations.

From USD Scenes to Knowledge Graphs: Zero-Shot Ontology Grounding with LLMs

arXiv:2606. 09134v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Constructing knowledge graphs from 3D simulation scenes is essential for robot task reasoning, but the key bottleneck, grounding scene objects to formal ontology classes, still relies on manually curated dictionaries that are brittle and do not generalize across assets.

What Objects Enable, Not What They Are: Functional Latent Spaces for Affordance Reasoning

arXiv:2606. 05533v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing robot planning systems rely on appearance-based reasoning, where visual observations are encoded into latent spaces organized around object appearances (e.
