MemBodied: Recurrent Associative Memory for Vision-Language-Action Models

MemBodied introduces a fixed‑size episodic memory for Vision‑Language‑Action models, comprising an associative state that tracks interactions across policy calls and an episode anchor that stores a compact representation of the initial scene. By conditioning action generation on these memory components instead of raw past observations, MemBodied reduces context bloat and inference latency. In five memory‑dependent RMBench tasks, it outperforms stateless and vanilla recurrent policies by significant margins, and achieves a 90.6% success rate on the LIBERO‑Long suite, improving over the baseline by 5.4%.

2AM: Grounding Agent-Side Memory as Guidance for Steerable Action Models in Long-Horizon Manipulation

The paper introduces 2AM, a system that keeps task memory solely within a multimodal Agent while using a single RGB‑based, stateless Action Model to execute motions. By compiling interaction history into subtask language and optional 2D grasp/place/move hints, the Agent steers the Action Model, which is trained to tolerate imperfect guidance through dropout, noise, and jitter. On the LIBERO‑Mem benchmark, 2AM achieves 76.3% average completion without depth, geometry, or planners, vastly outperforming the best baseline.
