The paper introduces a metric interaction framework for robotic manipulation that explicitly models object- and scene-level interactions in Cartesian space. It uses Interaction‑Centric Tokens (ICTs) to represent end‑effector trajectories relative to objects and a Metric Action Interaction Field (MAIF) to attend to scene point‑cloud features for geometry‑conditioned action corrections. Experiments show modest but consistent improvements across several benchmarks, including LIBERO, RoboTwin 2.0, and real‑world tasks.
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.
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...
