Vision-Language-Action models and World-Action Models have advanced language-conditioned robotic manipulation, yet often leave metric relations among actions, objects, and scene geometry implicit. Hum...
arXiv:2606. 00054v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent progress in generalizable embodied control has been driven by large-scale pretraining of Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models.
arXiv:2606. 17046v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generalist robot policies must follow user instructions while reasoning about how objects, cameras, and robot actions interact in the 3D physical world.
World models offer a promising route toward robot planning by enabling agents to imagine and verify the consequences of actions before execution. However, current video-based world models often struggle to capture the physical constraints that govern manipulation, particularly contact.
arXiv:2606. 13769v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World models that capture how actions induce physical change enable scalable robot learning without reliance on embodiment-specific action labels.
arXiv:2606. 28813v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human videos are a scalable source of supervision for robot manipulation, as they are abundant and naturally capture rich object interactions.
