arXiv:2606. 31919v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Zero-shot Object Goal Navigation (ZSON) with RGB-only perception poses a fundamental challenge for embodied agents, as the absence of explicit depth information introduces severe physical uncertainty and semantic-physical misalignment.
arXiv:2607. 17574v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement-learning navigation policies for legged robots select actions reactively from current observations and short-term memory, with limited capacity to anticipate how moving obstacles will evolve in the near future.
arXiv:2606. 18634v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: To locate a target object while exploring the unknown environment is a fundamental capability for autonomous agents, with applications ranging from search-and-rescue to field robots.
arXiv:2606. 00267v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video world models (WMs) have shown promise for policy evaluation and improvement by imagining realistic future observations conditioned on ego-robot actions.
arXiv:2608. 07267v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent vision-language navigation (VLN) systems increasingly adapt pretrained vision-language models (VLMs) into vision-language-action (VLA) policies that map egocentric observations and language instructions directly to navigation actions.
arXiv:2606. 30696v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Enabling robots to follow natural language commands to complete zero-shot long-horizon tasks remains challenging.
