Learning Foresight without Explicit Trajectories for 3D Diffusion Policies

The paper introduces Movement Trend Guidance, a method that equips 3D diffusion policies with foresight by learning a compact latent representation of interaction evolution from a brief observation history. This latent, supervised by sparse future gripper states during training, serves as future-oriented conditioning during inference, enhancing action generation without adding explicit planning. The approach improves performance on RoboTwin2.0, LIBERO-40, and DexArt benchmarks, achieving higher success rates across multiple tasks.

ActSafeGuard: Differentiable and Training-Aligned Constraint Enforcement for Flow-Matching Policies

arXiv:2609. 11697v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) and World-Action Models (WAMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in general-purpose robotic manipulation, yet their generated actions may violate hard physical constraints and therefore be unsafe or infeasible for deployment.

Temporally Centered SIGReg Improves LeWorldModel Representations for Robot Policy Learning

The paper investigates the LeWorldModel (LeWM) and its Sketched Isotropic Gaussian Regularizer (SIGReg), showing that the original Raw LeWM objective biases variance toward temporally persistent components, which suppresses residual variance and hampers robot state decodability. By applying SIGReg specifically to temporally centered residuals, the authors decouple persistent and residual variance allocation, improving representation quality. On the LIBERO benchmark, this adjustment boosts downstream policy success on the Goal suite by 1.66× and raises overall success rates from 63.6% to 83.8%, outperforming Diffusion Policy and pretrained OpenVLA without external pretraining.
