EgoLAP is a VLA pre‑training framework that learns from both human and robot trajectories by expressing motion intent as temporally abstracted language actions linked to motion‑level reasoning grounded in scene geometry, physics, and object affordances. It jointly trains on a shared language‑based action chain‑of‑thought, enabling the transfer of human experience to robot control. In extensive real‑world and simulated experiments, EgoLAP achieves 80.1% mean real‑world task progress, a 2.3× improvement over alternative action representations, and outperforms composite reasoning formats.
Egocentric human data offer a path to scaling robot learning beyond costly robot demonstrations, yet the embodiment gap makes raw human trajectories a poor supervisory target for control. Our key insi...
AtomEgo investigates how to integrate large-scale egocentric human interaction data into embodied foundation model pre‑training. The study uses a curated 2,659‑hour corpus and a scalable data pipeline to evaluate three co‑training paradigms across vision‑language‑action and world‑action architectures. Results show that the benefit of egocentric data depends on both its scale and the quality of alignment with robotic embodiment, offering practical guidance for scalable ego‑robot pre‑training.
arXiv:2605. 30280v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Embodied intelligence is often studied through specialized models for individual tasks such as manipulation or navigation, resulting in fragmented capabilities and limited generalization across tasks, environments, and robot embodiments.
Ego4WAM investigates how various properties of egocentric human data—such as human‑robot alignment, data duration, task diversity, and supervision type—affect robot learning. The study, conducted under a unified world‑action model framework, shows that aligned demonstrations improve out‑of‑distribution generalization and lower the amount of target‑task robot data needed. It also finds that video‑only supervision remains effective, and that data duration and task diversity influence downstream capabilities in distinct ways, as validated on real robots and RoboDojo.
arXiv:2606. 00054v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent progress in generalizable embodied control has been driven by large-scale pretraining of Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models.
arXiv:2601. 11460v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Learning structured task representations from human demonstrations is essential for bimanual manipulation, where action ordering, object involvement, and interaction geometry vary significantly across executions.
LAPT-Scale introduces a latent action pre‑training framework that leverages large‑scale egocentric human videos to train embodied robotic policies. The method comprises LAPT‑Scale‑LAM, which learns continuous latent actions by modeling visual transitions in human videos, and LAPT‑Scale‑Policy, which aligns these latent actions with robot embodiment and fine‑tunes for specific tasks. Using 23.3K hours of video, the approach improves real‑robot success rates from 63.3% to 85.0% and generalizes to unseen visual conditions.

arXiv:2607. 26903v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The key bottleneck in embodied AI is not model architecture but data.
Embodied foundation models are expected to benefit from data scaling like large language models, but face a much tighter data bottleneck. Teleoperated real-robot trajectories remain the dominant pretraining source due to their precise action supervision and embodiment alignment, yet their scalability is limited by high collection cost, acquisition difficulty, and low behavioral and environmental diversity.
