SCRIPT is a scalable diffusion policy that uses a Joint Action-State-Text Diffusion Transformer (JAST‑DiT) to jointly encode actions, physical states, and natural‑language instructions, enabling direct interaction between language semantics and control dynamics. The method employs a multi‑stage training framework, including supervised imitation pre‑training, a nonlinear history conditioning mechanism for stable autoregressive control, and a post‑training stage with Reinforcement Learning with Hybrid Rewards (RLHR) that injects learnable noise to improve motion quality and instruction following. Experiments on the 1200‑hour MotionMillion dataset show that SCRIPT outperforms prior state‑of‑the‑art methods across text alignment, motion quality, and physical realism, and its performance scales consistently with model size.

Being‑M0.7 is a latent world‑action model that learns from a large mixed‑modality human dataset (over 10,000 hours of video‑only, motion‑only, and paired video‑motion data) to predict future latent visual states and motion. The model is pre‑trained on human data, adapted to robot viewpoints during mid‑training, and then combined with an action expert via gated cross‑attention during post‑training to produce executable whole‑body commands. In experiments, Being‑M0.7 outperforms baselines on the SIMPLE benchmark and matches the best baseline on real‑world Unitree G1 loco‑manipulation tasks.

The paper argues that diffusion-based action policies can use a frozen, observation‑free backbone as a reusable trajectory prior, with task adaptation handled entirely by the conditioning pathway. By pretraining a general action head on forward‑kinematics data and then freezing it, the authors show that a single backbone can match or outperform normally trained models on MimicGen and LIBERO. Their experiments reveal that a small 5 M‑parameter MLP backbone can rival large U‑Net and transformer backbones, indicating that action backbones are often over‑parameterized and that image‑style architectures may not be the best fit for low‑dimensional action generation.

The paper investigates the LeWorldModel (LeWM) and its Sketched Isotropic Gaussian Regularizer (SIGReg), showing that the original Raw LeWM objective biases variance toward temporally persistent components, which suppresses residual variance and hampers robot state decodability. By applying SIGReg specifically to temporally centered residuals, the authors decouple persistent and residual variance allocation, improving representation quality. On the LIBERO benchmark, this adjustment boosts downstream policy success on the Goal suite by 1.66× and raises overall success rates from 63.6% to 83.8%, outperforming Diffusion Policy and pretrained OpenVLA without external pretraining.
