MemBodied: Recurrent Associative Memory for Vision-Language-Action Models

MemBodied introduces a fixed‑size episodic memory for Vision‑Language‑Action models, comprising an associative state that tracks interactions across policy calls and an episode anchor that stores a compact representation of the initial scene. By conditioning action generation on these memory components instead of raw past observations, MemBodied reduces context bloat and inference latency. In five memory‑dependent RMBench tasks, it outperforms stateless and vanilla recurrent policies by significant margins, and achieves a 90.6% success rate on the LIBERO‑Long suite, improving over the baseline by 5.4%.

2AM: Grounding Agent-Side Memory as Guidance for Steerable Action Models in Long-Horizon Manipulation

The paper introduces 2AM, a system that separates memory and action execution in long‑horizon robot manipulation. 2AM stores task memory exclusively in a multimodal Agent, while a single RGB‑based, stateless Action Model performs motion based on language and optional 2D hints. On the LIBERO‑Mem benchmark, 2AM achieves 76.3% average completion—over 61 points higher than the best baseline—demonstrating that agent‑side memory and precise steering of the Action Model can substantially improve performance.

LM-X: Explainable Action Modeling with Progress, Event, and Uncertainty Prediction for Generalist Robot Manipulation

LM‑X is a generalist vision‑language‑action policy that augments action prediction with three online, explicitly supervised signals: return‑to‑go (RTG) for task progress, event‑to‑go (ETG) for the next semantic transition, and heteroscedastic action flow for local reliability. By conditioning action generation on these signals, LM‑X embeds explainability directly into control rather than as a post‑hoc explanation. After a 20‑day pretraining run on 64 GPUs, LM‑X outperforms an action‑only backbone by 16.0 points and a single‑head variant by 10.8 points, and achieves 74.1 % success on 50 RoboTwin2.0 tasks and 68.6 % on seven real‑robot tasks, surpassing the GR00T N1.7 baseline.

2AM: Grounding Agent-Side Memory as Guidance for Steerable Action Models in Long-Horizon Manipulation

The paper introduces 2AM, a system that keeps task memory solely within a multimodal Agent while using a single RGB‑based, stateless Action Model to execute motions. By compiling interaction history into subtask language and optional 2D grasp/place/move hints, the Agent steers the Action Model, which is trained to tolerate imperfect guidance through dropout, noise, and jitter. On the LIBERO‑Mem benchmark, 2AM achieves 76.3% average completion without depth, geometry, or planners, vastly outperforming the best baseline.
