World-Action Models for Robot Learning and Control: A Survey

The survey "World-Action Models for Robot Learning and Control" reviews recent advances in coupling future world prediction with executable action generation for robots in open environments. It clarifies the scope of World-Action Models (WAMs) relative to conventional world models, model-based RL, and Vision‑Language‑Action policies, and organizes existing methods through a unified taxonomy covering representations, transition modeling, action interfaces, architectures, training pipelines, data modalities, and scaling strategies. The paper also surveys applications in manipulation, navigation, and autonomous driving, summarizes datasets, benchmarks, and metrics, and discusses key challenges such as action alignment, spatial consistency, long‑horizon memory, and efficient inference.

AtomicVLA: Unlocking the Potential of Atomic Skill Learning in Robots

AtomicVLA is a unified planning-and-execution framework that generates task-level plans, atomic skill abstractions, and fine-grained actions for robotic manipulation. It builds a scalable atomic skill library using a Skill‑Guided Mixture‑of‑Experts (SG‑MoE) and a flexible routing encoder that assigns new skills to dedicated experts, enabling continual learning. Experiments show that AtomicVLA outperforms baseline models on both simulated and real‑world long‑horizon tasks, achieving significant improvements in task performance and learning efficiency.
