NormAct: A Benchmark for Hidden Social Norm Compliance in Embodied Planning

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2606. 27826v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed as embodied planners in egocentric environments, where task success requires not only achieving instructed goals but also acting in socially appropriate ways.

NormAct: Benchmarking Embodied Agents' Proactive Compliance with Unspoken Social Norms

arXiv:2606. 27826v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Embodied agents driven by multimodal large language models (MLLMs) can often complete everyday tasks from visual observations, but goal achievement does not establish whether they proactively respect unstated social norms.

Cortex: A Bidirectionally Aligned Embodied Agent Framework for Long-horizon Manipulation

arXiv:2607. 05377v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While recent Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models show promise toward generalist manipulation policies, they struggle with long-horizon tasks due to their Markovian nature-relying solely on current observations.

Neurosymbolic Embodied Agents

arXiv:2608. 16794v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Language and vision-language models generate plausible embodied plans but do not guarantee executability, as their outputs can violate environment dynamics or act on incorrectly grounded entities.
