arXiv:2603. 04910v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Imitation learning from human demonstrations has achieved significant success in robotic control, yet most visuomotor policies still condition on single-step observations or short-context histories, making them struggle with non-Markovian tasks that require long-term memory.

arXiv:2603. 24576v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Robots often observe information that determines a future action long before that action is executed.

arXiv:2608. 07065v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Action-chunking visuomotor policies learn from demonstrations and improve temporal consistency by predicting short action sequences rather than single-step commands.

arXiv:2604. 18933v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Robotic manipulation tasks exhibit varying memory requirements, ranging from Markovian tasks that require no memory to non-Markovian tasks that demand in-context memorization of historical information within a single trial or in-context adaptation based on the outcomes of multiple past trials.

arXiv:2607. 14252v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-horizon robot planning requires more than predicting what actions will do next; it also requires memory of the embodied experience that makes future goals interpretable.

arXiv:2608. 12308v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Aerial vision-language navigation (VLN) requires an embodied agent to integrate visual evidence over time, plan future actions, and determine when it has reached a navigation goal under partial observability.

arXiv:2511. 18960v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have shown remarkable progress in embodied tasks recently, but most methods process visual observations independently at each timestep.

arXiv:2606. 15631v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Extending a vision-language-action (VLA) policy to a new task typically requires task-specific teleoperated demonstrations and per-task fine-tuning, making adaptation costly in both data collection and compute.

arXiv:2607. 27138v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) models remain constrained by scarce action-labeled robot data, whereas action-free videos offer abundant observations of physical change.

arXiv:2607. 29235v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although world-action models (WAMs) enhance long-horizon robot control by predicting visual evolution before acting, long-horizon reliability demands repeated re-grounding in real observations--not recursive rollout.
