arXiv:2605. 25477v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The ability to efficiently and reliably learn new tasks has been a foundational challenge in robotics.
arXiv:2605. 22305v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We analytically solve the Mountain Car problem, a canonical benchmark in RL, and derive an optimal control solution, closing a gap after 36 years.
Pretrained dense visual features from Vision Transformers (ViTs) are powerful yet have been underutilized in robot learning. Modern robot policies either compress each observation into a single global token, or rely on visual backbones trained from scratch, sacrificing both fine-grained spatial detail and the benefits of large-scale visual pre-training.
arXiv:2606. 29892v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has become indispensable for pushing Vision-Language-Action Models (VLAs) beyond static imitation learning.
arXiv:2606. 20246v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models pre-trained on massive video-robot datasets have revolutionized robotic manipulation, yet their multi-billion parameter architectures impose prohibitive computational burdens during downstream fine-tuning and real-time inference.
