arXiv:2607. 22832v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon embodied tasks require policies that execute many dependent actions before task success can be observed.
arXiv:2607. 00272v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traditional robot programming is challenging: it requires orchestrating multimodal perception, managing physical contact dynamics, and handling diverse configurations and execution failures.
arXiv:2606. 19980v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Achieving dexterous robotic manipulation in the real world heavily relies on human supervision and algorithm engineering, which becomes a central bottleneck in the pursuit of general physical intelligence.
arXiv:2601. 21570v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The field of Embodied AI is witnessing a rapid evolution toward general-purpose robotic systems, fueled by high-fidelity simulation and large-scale data collection.
The paper introduces Auto‑Robotist, a self‑evolving large language model (LLM) agent that transforms evolutionary robot design search traces into an explicit natural‑language skill library. Each skill records a structural archetype, evidence‑grounded rules, and supporting designs, enabling the agent to retrieve and condition LLM edits during search while still using a genetic algorithm for exploration. Experiments on seven EvoGym tasks show that Auto‑Robotist outperforms standard genetic algorithms, especially when transferring learned skills to larger design spaces.
arXiv:2606. 04970v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We envision a proactive multi-modal assistant system which gives users real-time step-by-step guidance on a procedural task, autonomously deciding \textit{when} to interrupt, and \textit{how} to coach.
arXiv:2608.21204v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Behaviour Cloning (BC) has driven remarkable progress in robot manipulation, yet it is fundamentally limited by its inability to self-improve: a poli...
arXiv:2610.02196v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study test-time evolution for humanoid loco-manipulation: solving tasks that a controller was never trained for by repurposing its existing skills...
The paper introduces URAI, a Universal Robot‑Agent Interface that separates robot control into two roles: a programming agent that writes reusable, task‑specific tools from intent, and an execution agent that calls these tools in a feedback loop. This design keeps high‑level decision making in the model while delegating low‑level motion to code, allowing tool revisions to persist across episodes without retraining the foundation model. Experiments on RoboDojo and AgileX tasks show significant gains in success rate, speed, and token efficiency compared to direct fingertip control and pre‑written programs.
arXiv:2607. 14252v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-horizon robot planning requires more than predicting what actions will do next; it also requires memory of the embodied experience that makes future goals interpretable.
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.
arXiv:2603. 24576v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Robots often observe information that determines a future action long before that action is executed.
arXiv:2608. 08466v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern LLM agents are often improved by modifying prompts, tools, or workflows manually, while the executable scaffold surrounding the model---the \emph{harness}---is typically treated as a fixed artifact after deployment.
