arXiv:2606. 04269v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deformable object manipulation (DOM) is challenging due to high-dimensional, partially observable states that evolve through long-horizon, topology-changing interactions with multiple valid manipulation modes.
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated strong capabilities in robotic manipulation by integrating visual perception, language understanding, and robot action generation. Existing research has primarily focused on improving model architectures, training strategies, and dataset scale, while little attention has been paid to how demonstrations are collected and organized.
arXiv:2608. 01452v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dynamic manipulation is a critical capability for robots operating in complex and dynamic environments, where robots must interact with objects that are moving or require rapid adjustments.

arXiv:2602. 13197v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The ability to learn manipulation skills by watching videos of humans has the potential to unlock a new source of highly scalable data for robot learning.
KeyGen is a framework that learns canonical 3D keypoints from point clouds to create structured, object‑centric representations for policy learning in robotic manipulation. By conditioning a visuomotor diffusion policy on these keypoints and object geometry, it predicts full manipulation trajectories that maintain geometric correspondence across different object instances. Experiments on a photorealistic simulation benchmark with three tasks show that KeyGen outperforms prior methods on both seen and unseen objects, scales with more demonstrations, remains robust to rescaling, and performs well in real‑world manipulation.
