arXiv:2606. 10803v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) excel at utilizing digital APIs and increasingly serve as the "brain" of embodied AI, instructing robots to interact with the physical world.
arXiv:2606. 04046v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In embodied vision-language decision making tasks such as robotic manipulation and navigation, Vision-Language and Vision-Language-Action Models (VLMs & VLAs) are powerful tools with different benefits: VLMs are better at long-term planning, while VLAs are better at reactive control.
arXiv:2606. 30185v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Improving vision-language models (VLMs) on visual reasoning typically requires retraining or hand-designed prompts and tools.
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) excel at utilizing digital APIs and increasingly serve as the "brain" of embodied AI, instructing robots to interact with the physical world. In such embodied settings, a central capability is the use of physical tools, which underpins MLLMs' ability to assist humans in real-world tasks.
arXiv:2606. 26196v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have recently made remarkable progress in unifying vision-language understanding and reasoning, especially following the introduction of models such as OpenAI's O-series and DeepSeek's R-series, which have driven a paradigm shift toward perception-centric intelligence.
arXiv:2607. 27703v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly used in embodied agents to interpret visual inputs, reason about spatial relationships, and make task-level decisions based on that reasoning.
