arXiv:2608. 11738v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM)-based UAV aerial image understanding and reasoning is essential for aerial intelligence yet poses distinct challenges arising from extreme scale variation, arbitrary camera orientations, and high object density.

arXiv:2606. 06836v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Language-guided UAV agents must execute long-horizon semantic instructions while producing smooth, physically feasible continuous flight commands, yet existing Vision-Language Navigation (VLN) benchmarks typically use discrete or coarse actions and existing UAV Vision-Language-Action (VLA) tasks focus on short, atomic maneuvers.

arXiv:2608. 15175v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly deployed for autonomous navigation in complex outdoor environments, where dynamic conditions and mission requirements require intelligent adaptive decision-making.

arXiv:2607. 17951v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Natural-language control offers a promising interface for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), but directly applying self-hosted computer-use agents (SHCUAs) to UAV control introduces a structural mismatch.

arXiv:2606. 28397v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language navigation (VLN) has recently advanced with large language and multimodal models, enabling agents to follow natural-language instructions in unseen environments without training a task-specific navigation policy.

arXiv:2606. 31073v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) provide a promising interface for high-level robotic task planning, but their use in multi-UAV collaboration remains difficult to evaluate systematically.
