arXiv:2608. 00315v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robot policies are becoming increasingly general, with vision-language-action (VLA) models enabling a single policy to execute diverse tasks specified in natural language.
arXiv:2606. 23754v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying foundation models for robot control raises a central challenge: the expressive power that enables rich, multimodal perception also makes these models opaque and difficult to analyze formally, rendering them intractable for existing verification tools.
arXiv:2607. 14543v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly used as the reasoning backbone of embodied agents, enabling robots to interpret visual scenes, follow language instructions, and plan multi-step actions.
arXiv:2512. 19178v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bridging the gap between natural language commands and autonomous execution in unstructured environments remains an open challenge for robotics.
arXiv:2606. 09749v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated impressive end-to-end performance across a variety of robotic manipulation tasks.
arXiv:2607. 04517v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models are commonly treated as end-to-end action policies conditioned on natural-language task descriptions.
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models are commonly treated as end-to-end action policies conditioned on natural-language task descriptions. In practice, however, their behavior often depends sharply on how the instruction is phrased, suggesting that language is not merely a task label but an optimizable conditioning input.
arXiv:2606. 10918v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The recent trend in scaling models for robot learning has resulted in impressive policies that can perform various manipulation tasks and generalize to novel scenarios.
arXiv:2606. 12299v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models provide a natural language interface to robot control, but the mapping from language to behavior is often brittle and unintuitive: semantically similar instructions can induce drastically different behaviors, while some capabilities may not be elicitable through prompting alone.
arXiv:2606. 02562v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous robots that interact with people must make safe and efficient decisions under human-induced uncertainty, such as their preferences, goals, competency, and willingness to cooperate.
Reinforcement Learning has revolutionized the landscape of robotic research, allowing robust learning of complex robotic skills in simulation. However, real-world deployment in open-ended environments requires strong safety guarantees to prevent dangerous or harmful behaviors.
