CrossSafe: Towards Cross-Embodiment Latent Safety Filters

Read the original on arXiv AI →

CrossSafe proposes embodiment-conditioned safety filtering that uses a Hamilton‑Jacobi reachability value function shared across robots while conditioning on each robot’s morphology and kinematics via a morphology‑aware latent representation. The method performs reachability analysis directly in latent space, enabling a single policy trained on multiple bimanual robot embodiments and manipulation tasks to generalize zero‑shot to a held‑out embodiment and reduce collision rates. Experiments on five embodiments and five tasks demonstrate that training with more embodiments improves generalization.

ActSafeGuard: Differentiable and Training-Aligned Constraint Enforcement for Flow-Matching Policies

arXiv:2609. 11697v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) and World-Action Models (WAMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in general-purpose robotic manipulation, yet their generated actions may violate hard physical constraints and therefore be unsafe or infeasible for deployment.

Qwen-VLA: Unifying Vision-Language-Action Modeling across Tasks, Environments, and Robot Embodiments

arXiv:2605. 30280v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Embodied intelligence is often studied through specialized models for individual tasks such as manipulation or navigation, resulting in fragmented capabilities and limited generalization across tasks, environments, and robot embodiments.

Verifiable Foundation Models for Robot Safety

arXiv:2606. 23754v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying foundation models for robot control raises a central challenge: the expressive power that enables rich, multimodal perception also makes these models opaque and difficult to analyze formally, rendering them intractable for existing verification tools.
