CaP-X: A Framework for Benchmarking and Improving Coding Agents for Robot Manipulation

arXiv:2603. 22435v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: "Code-as-Policy" considers how executable code can complement data-intensive Vision-Language-Action (VLA) methods, yet their effectiveness as autonomous controllers for embodied manipulation remains underexplored.

DriveVLM-RL: Neuroscience-Inspired Reinforcement Learning with Vision-Language Models for Safe and Deployable Autonomous Driving

arXiv:2603. 18315v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Traditional reinforcement learning (RL) methods rely on manually engineered rewards or sparse collision signals, which fail to capture the rich contextual understanding required for safe driving and make unsafe exploration unavoidable in real-world settings.

InduceKV: Fixed-Footprint Continual Adaptation of Multimodal LLMs via Inducing KV Memories

arXiv:2607. 02010v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models must adapt to evolving tasks and domains, yet continual improvement under bounded deployment footprint remains difficult because repeated parameter updates or growing replay stores can accumulate adaptation state over time.
