arXiv:2512. 21201v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Zero-shot object navigation (ZSON) requires robots to find target objects in unseen environments without task-specific fine-tuning or pre-built maps, a key capability for general-purpose service robots.

Building memory is essential for long-horizon planning in zero-shot embodied navigation. Detector-centric scene graphs often compress observations into sparse nodes, discarding fine-grained visual evidence and accumulating noise, while 3D reconstruction-based methods remain computationally prohibitive.
arXiv:2606. 29908v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing world model-based planners for visual navigation typically follow a verification-centric paradigm, decoupling goal intent from trajectory synthesis.

arXiv:2605. 06317v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing Vision-Language Navigation (VLN) methods typically adopt an egocentric, step-by-step paradigm, which struggles with error accumulation and limits efficiency.

arXiv:2606. 26964v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As embodied AI and world models increasingly operate in dynamic 3D environments, visual perception must move beyond passively interpreting given observations toward actively deciding what to observe.
