arXiv:2606. 04269v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deformable object manipulation (DOM) is challenging due to high-dimensional, partially observable states that evolve through long-horizon, topology-changing interactions with multiple valid manipulation modes.
arXiv:2606. 16202v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Humans naturally understand object physics through everyday interactions, but faithfully predicting complex deformable dynamics, such as elastic materials and fabrics, remains a major challenge for computer vision and robotics.
Recent advances in image-to-video generation have improved visual realism, making physically grounded and controllable dynamics an important step toward future world simulation. Current models often generate plausible motion, but it is not reliably governed by explicit physical causes, and instance-level constraints can leak or become entangled in multi-object interactions.
Video generation models achieve high visual quality but often struggle to generate physics-aware videos. Unlike rigid-body motion, which can be described by explicit trajectories or formulas, complex deformation dynamics remain challenging to synthesize.

arXiv:2606. 01950v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World models enable intelligent agents to predict the consequences of their actions on the environment.
Synthesizing realistic Human-Object Interactions (HOI) is critical for creating embodied avatars and functional virtual environments. However, current data-driven approaches primarily rely on motion capture datasets, which are expensive to scale and limited in functional diversity.
