The paper introduces Skeleton-Language feature Pooling Switching, a weakly‑supervised vision‑language pretraining strategy for skeleton‑based zero‑shot spatio‑temporal action localization. It replaces video‑level pooling with instance‑level feature computation during inference, enabling the model to estimate unseen actions without costly annotations. Additionally, Scene‑Mixed Discriminative Contrastive Learning is proposed to separate actions at the instance level within mixed scenes using a MIL framework, and experiments on four public datasets confirm the method’s effectiveness.

The paper introduces FailureSpot, a label‑efficient method for detecting failures at the timestamp level in vision‑language‑action (VLA) policies. It first generates weak supervision from unlabeled VLA action chunks by identifying abnormal patterns, then employs active learning to annotate only the most uncertain trajectories. Experiments on multiple VLA policies demonstrate improved performance for both timestamp‑level and trajectory‑level failure detection.

The paper introduces NAVA-WAM, a method that learns action priors directly from observation-only videos to pretrain action policies for robots. It uses a two-stage training process: first, it pretrains on videos with future‑video flow‑matching supervision to learn action‑relevant priors, and second, it fine‑tunes with action‑labeled demonstrations for robot control. Experiments show that NAVA‑WAM outperforms previous methods in both in‑distribution and out‑of‑distribution scenarios, achieving strong action‑label efficiency and real‑robot generalization.

The paper introduces PSEE, a method for progressive sensor event expansion that generates pseudo action segments from point-supervised labels in wearable sensor streams. By leveraging semantic activations, sensor-specific transition evidence, and adaptive temporal ownership, PSEE produces high‑quality pseudo boundaries that can train standard temporal action localization detectors without altering their inference. Experiments on four inertial‑sensing benchmarks show that PSEE outperforms adapted point‑supervised baselines, works with various detectors, and remains robust to different point sampling strategies.
