DeVA: Decoupled Video-Action Model with physical guidance for robot policy learning
Generalizable robot manipulation requires policies that can anticipate how visual scenes evolve while executing language instructions. While recent Vision-Language-Action models benefit from large-scale pretraining, their predominantly static pretraining objectives provide limited supervision for physical dynamics and temporal causality, leaving control-relevant knowledge to be learned from downstream robot demonstrations.

Perceive, Predict, and Plan: a Unified World Action Model for Egocentric Dexterous Manipulation
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.

RoboDream: Compositional World Models for Scalable Robot Data Synthesis
Scaling robot learning requires large-scale, diverse demonstrations, yet real-world data collection via teleoperation remains prohibitively expensive and time-consuming. While video diffusion models offer a promising avenue for data scaling, existing generative approaches are often limited to superficial visual augmentation, or suffer from embodiment hallucinations that yield physically infeasible motions.

RawVLA: Embodied Neural Image Signal Processor For Robotic Manipulation
RawVLA introduces a streaming neural image signal processor that adaptively renders RAW observations for vision‑language‑action (VLA) policies, focusing on imaging factors that influence embodied behavior. The authors systematically analyze how five ISP dimensions—gain, sensor noise, chromatic response, tonal response, and bit depth—affect action prediction and manipulation success, showing that RAW‑to‑RGB processing significantly shapes outcomes. They also present RawVLA‑Bench, a RAW‑domain manipulation benchmark that evaluates image processing as an explicit variable across clean and adverse conditions, demonstrating that RawVLA maintains performance under standard settings while markedly improving robustness under degraded imaging.
