GeoLAM: Learning Geometry-Grounded Latent Actions from Unlabeled Human Videos

GeoLAM is a framework that learns geometry‑grounded latent actions from unlabeled human videos. It uses future‑frame reconstruction with a frozen geometric feature hierarchy and motion supervision from a 4D geometry teacher to capture 3D displacement, image‑plane motion, and surface‑orientation changes. After pretraining, the representation serves as transition targets for a world‑action model trained on robot demonstrations, enabling denoised latent actions and executable action chunks without requiring hand‑pose annotations or future‑video generation during deployment.

Skeleton-based Zero-Shot Spatio-Temporal Action Localization via Weakly-Supervised Pretraining

The paper introduces Skeleton-Language feature Pooling Switching, a weakly‑supervised vision‑language pretraining strategy for skeleton‑based zero‑shot spatio‑temporal action localization. It replaces video‑level pooling with instance‑level feature computation during inference, enabling the model to estimate unseen actions without costly annotations. Additionally, Scene‑Mixed Discriminative Contrastive Learning is proposed to separate actions at the instance level within mixed scenes using a MIL framework, and experiments on four public datasets confirm the method’s effectiveness.

IGGT4D: Streaming 4D Instance-Grounded Geometry Transformer

Real-world spatial intelligence requires agents to understand scenes from continuous video streams, where objects move, persist, disappear, and reappear over time. While recent spatial foundation models have enabled generalizable feed-forward 3D reconstruction, most streaming methods remain geometry-centric and lack temporally consistent object-level understanding.

ParticleSplat: Self-supervised Object-centric Latent Particle Splatting

ParticleSplat is a self‑supervised, object‑centric learning framework that extends the Deep Latent Particles (DLP) model into 3D by representing scenes as latent particles mapped to 3D Gaussian splats. It jointly encodes multiple camera views into a shared 3D latent space, enabling unsupervised learning of object masks and controllable 3D scene editing such as moving objects by manipulating latent particles. Experiments on simulated and real‑world datasets demonstrate that this 3D representation improves performance on downstream robotic manipulation tasks.

Learning Geometric Representations from Videos for Spatial Intelligent Multimodal Large Language Models

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) excel at 2D semantic understanding but lack intrinsic 3D awareness, resulting in representations that fail to maintain geometric and spatial consistency across video frames. Given the scarcity of large-scale 3D data, we present GeoVR, a novel framework that learns geometric representations using purely 2D video sequences.
