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.

HiWE is a hierarchical world knowledge model that enables zero‑shot 3D path planning by linking visual grounding with language‑based planning through a point‑based interface. It uses PointVLM to map task‑relevant objects to image coordinates, lifts these predictions into a semantic 3D representation with depth data, and then a language planner (3DLLM) generates end‑effector waypoints and gripper commands. The system is evaluated on 14 simulated manipulation tasks and four physical‑robot tasks, with ablations on visual training data, spatial inputs, and grasp selection.
ForeAct3D is a framework that grounds future world modeling in Vision‑Language‑Action policies by decoding depth, semantic segmentation, and camera pose from policy representations into current and future 3D scene states. The future queries are conditioned on the policy‑generated action chunk, and a physical‑consistency closure enforces background staticity, instance‑level rigidity, and wrist‑camera pose alignment with end‑effector kinematics. This approach eliminates the need for future prediction at inference and achieves high success rates on LIBERO and CALVIN, outperforming the base policy across all suites.
