SceneTeract: Probing and Improving Agent-Aware Activity Reasoning in 3D Indoor Scenes
SceneTeract is a verification interface that separates semantic action understanding from physical feasibility in indoor 3D scenes. It decomposes activities into atomic actions and performs explicit geometric checks to determine executability, providing diagnostic traces for failures. The system reveals widespread functional and accessibility issues in synthetic scenes, shows that existing VLMs over‑predict action feasibility, and improves VLM performance through post‑training with verifier feedback, with benefits that generalize to real‑world scenes.

RoboPhys-3D: A Comprehensive Embodied World Model Evaluation via 3D Reconstruction
RoboPhys-3D is a 3D‑grounded embodied world model benchmark built on RoboTwin 2.0, featuring 50 manipulation tasks, 5,000 episodes, and 25,000 multi‑view ground‑truth videos. It evaluates video world models by processing both generated and ground‑truth videos through the same 3D reconstruction pipeline, allowing the separation of reconstruction‑induced from generation‑induced errors. The benchmark defines 50 metrics across four sub‑dimensions—pixel fidelity, 3D geometry consistency, state understanding, and task completeness—and introduces the Average Full Score and RoboPhyscore for holistic assessment, with RoboPhyscore showing strong correlation with human judgments.

GameWAM: A World Action Model for Video Games
GameWAM is the first World-Action Model designed for native closed-loop gameplay and GUI control in modern video games. It jointly generates future visual observations and executable keyboard-mouse trajectories using parallel visual and action generative processes, block-causal conditioning, and flow matching. The model predicts gameplay/GUI mode at each step, handles heterogeneous native controls, and employs block-cycle control for long-horizon interaction, achieving competitive task success with fewer native actions than prior agents.

CLAP: Cross-Embodiment Video World Models are Zero-Shot Physical Simulators
CLAP is a cross-embodiment framework for action‑conditioned video generation that can be trained on diverse internet‑scale videos from both humans and robots. It reconciles different action spaces—end‑effector poses, language instructions, and latent actions—using a curriculum that first learns physics priors from unlabeled video and then grounds them in real‑world action spaces for zero‑shot deployment. The resulting models match or exceed state‑of‑the‑art single‑embodiment models in challenging environments and support few‑shot adaptation across a wide range of robot morphologies.
