arXiv:2606. 31919v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Zero-shot Object Goal Navigation (ZSON) with RGB-only perception poses a fundamental challenge for embodied agents, as the absence of explicit depth information introduces severe physical uncertainty and semantic-physical misalignment.
LookStep is a new end‑to‑end framework for Vision‑Language Navigation that integrates Language‑Centric Future State Modeling with an Event‑Driven Rolling Memory. It uses language labels to predict coarse navigation progress and future states for candidate actions, and autonomously decides which observations to store in a bounded memory with semantic roles. Empirical results show that LookStep outperforms existing methods on VLN‑CE tasks, achieving a 49.7% success rate on R2R‑CE Val‑Unseen while improving memory efficiency and reducing data requirements.
Mem2Ego introduces a vision‑language model for embodied navigation that combines global memory with egocentric visual inputs. By adaptively retrieving task‑relevant cues from a global memory module and aligning them with local perception, the framework improves spatial reasoning and decision‑making over long horizons. The method outperforms prior state‑of‑the‑art approaches on the HSSD and HM3D benchmarks and shows strong performance on a real robot.

InsightMap is a framework that uses top‑down maps as explicit spatial memory and action‑conditioned prediction targets for language‑guided navigation. It links historical views to labeled map locations and employs a shared multimodal backbone to jointly learn navigation action prediction and post‑action map generation, providing auxiliary training supervision. The approach supports a unified RGB‑D pipeline for navigation, visual question answering, situated reasoning, and 3D grounding, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results on R2R‑CE, RxR‑CE, ScanQA, SQA3D, ScanRefer, and outperforming baselines on the Unitree Go2 platform.
