InDex: Empowering VLA Models with Intent-Conditioned Arm-Hand Coordination for Dexterous Manipulation

arXiv:2606. 12109v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pre-trained Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models provide useful semantic and spatial priors, yet their parallel-gripper action interfaces do not specify how those priors should be realized by a dexterous hand.

Bridging the Morphology Gap: Adapting VLA Models to Dexterous Manipulation via Intent-Conditioned Fine-Tuning

arXiv:2606. 12109v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated remarkable zero-shot generalization in robotic manipulation, yet the vast majority of pre-trained pipelines remain strictly confined to low-DoF parallel grippers.

Adaptive Vision-Language Grasping via Composable Foundation Priors and Generalizable Grasp Synthesis

AdaRoboVLG is a Vision‑Language‑Grasp framework that separates a generalizable base grasp policy from task‑specific understanding. The base policy generates and evaluates physically feasible grasp candidates using kinematic mapping and force‑closure stability, while foundation‑model modules supply composable spatial, cognitive, and temporal priors that adapt grasp synthesis to different robotic hands and environments without retraining. Experiments show strong cross‑hand generalization, effective handling of diverse grasping challenges, and functional grasping in cluttered, dynamic settings.

Simple-to-Complex Structured Demonstrations for Vision-Language-Action Learning

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated strong capabilities in robotic manipulation by integrating visual perception, language understanding, and robot action generation. Existing research has primarily focused on improving model architectures, training strategies, and dataset scale, while little attention has been paid to how demonstrations are collected and organized.
