RetailSMV: Exocentric vs. Egocentric Adaptation of Foundation Video World Models in Retail

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2607. 00310v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation video diffusion models are increasingly viewed as world simulators for embodied agents, yet their pretraining on internet-scale generic video leaves them poorly aligned with real-world deployment domains.

HumanScale: Egocentric Human Video Can Outperform Real-Robot Data for Embodied Pretraining

Embodied foundation models are expected to benefit from data scaling like large language models, but face a much tighter data bottleneck. Teleoperated real-robot trajectories remain the dominant pretraining source due to their precise action supervision and embodiment alignment, yet their scalability is limited by high collection cost, acquisition difficulty, and low behavioral and environmental diversity.

Whareformer: Learning to Track What is Where in Long Egocentric Videos

The recently established 'Out of Sight, Not out of Mind' (OSNOM) task for egocentric videos focuses on tracking objects that are moved by the camera wearer, online, maintaining knowledge of instance locations throughout the video even when they leave the field of view or become heavily occluded. In this paper, we propose the first learning-based solution to the OSNOM task: Whareformer, a transformer-based model with two components: an updatable memory of established tracks and a track assignment module that associates observations with existing tracks in a feed-forward manner.
