arXiv:2606. 08530v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models achieve strong benchmark performance but still struggle in real-world deployment with unseen objects, background shifts, and different robot embodiments.
KeyGen is a framework that learns canonical 3D keypoints from point clouds to create structured, object‑centric representations for policy learning in robotic manipulation. By conditioning a visuomotor diffusion policy on these keypoints and object geometry, it predicts full manipulation trajectories that maintain geometric correspondence across different object instances. Experiments on a photorealistic simulation benchmark with three tasks show that KeyGen outperforms prior methods on both seen and unseen objects, scales with more demonstrations, remains robust to rescaling, and performs well in real‑world manipulation.
arXiv:2606. 20246v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models pre-trained on massive video-robot datasets have revolutionized robotic manipulation, yet their multi-billion parameter architectures impose prohibitive computational burdens during downstream fine-tuning and real-time inference.
