The paper introduces Latent Motion Reasoning (LMR), a two‑stage approach that separates text‑to‑motion generation into a planning phase and an execution phase. LMR uses a Dual‑Granularity Tokenizer to create a compressed, semantically rich reasoning latent for global trajectory planning and a high‑frequency execution latent for detailed motion fidelity. Experiments on T2M‑GPT and MotionStreamer show that this architecture improves both semantic alignment and physical plausibility compared to direct translation methods.
arXiv:2606. 15099v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models predominantly rely on explicit Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning to bridge perception and action.
A*-Thought-V2 is a framework that models Chain-of-Thought reasoning as a geometric trajectory in a 3D PCA space, using explicit-implicit latent tokens to compress steps that deviate from the main question-to-solution direction. The method measures alignment angles to decide which steps remain text and which become latent, and introduces stepwise embedding forcing and label forcing to train the architecture. Experiments on Qwen models show up to 2.6% accuracy gains, halved response length, and significant reductions in computation and training time.
Latent-CoT-Drive (LCDrive) is a vision‑language‑action model for autonomous driving that replaces natural‑language chain‑of‑thought reasoning with a latent language capturing possible outcomes of driving actions. The model interleaves action‑proposal tokens, aligned with the model’s output actions, and world‑model tokens grounded in a learned latent world model to reason about future outcomes. After a supervised cold‑start using ground‑truth future rollouts, LCDrive is further refined with closed‑loop reinforcement learning, achieving faster inference, higher‑quality trajectories, and greater gains from interactive RL than both non‑reasoning and text‑reasoning baselines on a large‑scale end‑to‑end driving benchmark.

Synthesizing human motion from textual descriptions is essential for immersive digital applications, yet existing methods face a persistent trade-off between semantic fidelity and physical realism. Large language model (LLM)-based approaches can interpret diverse open-vocabulary instructions and compose high-level action plans, but they often generate motions that violate physical constraints.
