arXiv:2606. 18861v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reconstructing simulation-ready digital twins of articulated objects from sensor observations remains constrained by two persistent gaps: (i) part-level geometric reconstruction is decoupled from kinematic-parameter estimation, and (ii) the recovered models often violate basic dynamic invariants such as energy conservation, leading to drift when the URDF is replayed in physics simulators.
arXiv:2509. 15443v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Human-to-humanoid imitation learning presents a promising pathway to address the severe data scarcity bottleneck in robotics by utilizing abundant, large-scale human motion collections.
Dynamic-scene reconstruction is almost always evaluated inside the observed time window, yet deployment settings such as AR overlays, robot interaction, and anticipatory planning need the future surface: the geometry at times beyond those captured. No standard benchmark measures this.

arXiv:2606. 28128v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video generation models have emerged as a promising paradigm for embodied world simulation.
arXiv:2608. 15555v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video models are increasingly used to predict what happens next in a scene, yet the metrics commonly used to compare their outputs say little about whether the predicted objects move correctly.
arXiv:2602. 08058v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In the presence of occlusions and measurement noise, geometrically accurate scene reconstructions -- which fit the sensor data -- can still be physically incorrect.
Physics engines facilitate large-scale training and evaluation for embodied intelligence, while generative video world models are emerging as implicit simulators of future states and interactions. However, existing evaluations of physical fidelity are often conducted in isolation and rely heavily on perceptual similarity or human judgments, providing limited insight into which physical principles or parameters are violated.

arXiv:2509. 26633v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A dominant paradigm for teaching humanoid robots complex skills is to retarget human motions as kinematic references to train reinforcement learning (RL) policies.

arXiv:2606. 31672v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite rapid progress in interactive world models (IWMs), existing benchmarks evaluate action following only at trajectory level and ignore memory and interaction physics.
arXiv:2606. 16202v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Humans naturally understand object physics through everyday interactions, but faithfully predicting complex deformable dynamics, such as elastic materials and fabrics, remains a major challenge for computer vision and robotics.
