DK‑VLM introduces Dual‑Kernel Attention, where a visual token’s attention is computed from both its input position and its geometric position derived from 3D points and camera poses. A semantic kernel preserves pretrained attention while a geometric kernel modulates attention via point displacements and relative view transformations, with a learned gate fusing the two. The model also employs Reference‑Frame Composition supervision to update its reference frame across successive judgments, achieving top scores on six spatial benchmarks and strong performance on VSI‑Bench and ReVSI‑32.

CameraEditor is a new framework that transforms camera-controlled image editing into a temporal sequence prediction problem. By using video diffusion models, it incorporates a geometric perception module and dynamic reference routing to create precise visual references through dynamic panorama cropping. The method also inserts intermediate transition frames to handle large perspective shifts, maintaining content identity and spatial coherence, and is evaluated on a dataset of 5,760 instances with a benchmark of 462 test cases, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance.

FOCAL‑VLA is a framework that improves vision‑language‑action models by combining subtask‑guided geometry distillation with implicit world modeling. It transfers geometric knowledge from VGGT to focus on subtask‑relevant image regions and uses Track4World features to capture future 3D evolution, guiding action generation without running these models at inference time. Experiments demonstrate that FOCAL‑VLA outperforms baselines on both simulation benchmarks and real‑world manipulation tasks.

GS‑VLA introduces a lightweight, plug‑and‑play framework that uses a 4 M‑parameter 3D‑Gaussian canonicalizer to adapt frozen Vision‑Language‑Action (VLA) policies to viewpoint shifts without retraining the policy. By treating viewpoint changes as a localized novel‑view synthesis problem under a locality assumption, the method normalizes observations through a scene‑ and policy‑independent disocclusion task. Experiments on the LIBERO benchmark demonstrate that GS‑VLA recovers a large portion of performance lost due to camera displacement, improving results across different policy architectures, unseen task suites, and perturbation scales.
whyItMatters":"The approach offers a computationally efficient alternative to costly fine‑tuning or generative augmentation, enabling robust VLA deployment in real‑world settings where camera configurations may vary."
