arXiv:2608. 20308v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Egocentric video offers scalable manipulation data for embodied AI, yet recovering metric 3D hand trajectories remains challenging due to severe object occlusion and frequent out-of-sight gaps.
Ego2Act is a new benchmark that tests video generation models on goal‑directed, egocentric manipulation tasks. It contains 2,640 videos from 110 real‑world tasks, each requiring multiple steps of object manipulation to achieve a high‑level goal. The benchmark includes Ego2ActJudge, a reference‑free evaluation pipeline that better aligns with human judgments of task completion and physics plausibility.
MINT is a foundation model that directly predicts world-space two-hand trajectories from egocentric RGB video, jointly estimating camera motion, hand states, and hand presence in a single spatiotemporal representation. It uses an open-source labeling pipeline, EGOPIPELINE, to generate large-scale pseudo-labels for pretraining, followed by fine-tuning on a small set of high-quality joint annotations. The model outperforms existing multi-stage approaches in accuracy and speed, and generalizes zero‑shot to unseen egocentric datasets.
The paper introduces P³-WAM, a unified world action model for egocentric dexterous manipulation that integrates 3D perception, action-conditioned prediction, and goal-directed planning. It operates in three modes—Perceive, Predict, and Plan—using a mixture-of-transformers architecture that shares base weights and adapts to modality-specific inputs. Experiments demonstrate that unified training improves performance across all three capabilities, outperforming specialized baselines on 3D hand reconstruction and action-conditioned video prediction while producing more instruction‑adherent manipulation videos.
