Manipulation, locomotion, sim-to-real transfer and autonomous driving: learning systems that have to survive physics.
arXiv:2608. 19729v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-language-model-based embodied agents can complete instructed tasks but often violate safety constraints in the process, a problem recently framed as interactive safety.
arXiv:2608. 19759v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multifingered grasping is a crucial robotic skill, but current deep-learning grasp planners often struggle to generalize to new objects because they are trained on limited, object-specific datasets.
arXiv:2608. 19425v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable performance evaluation is a central bottleneck for deploying robot-learning policies in real-world conditions.
arXiv:2608. 19710v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable underwater robotic perception remains difficult because optical imagery degrades under turbidity, wavelength-dependent attenuation, low illumination, scattering, and blur.
arXiv:2608. 19684v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent studies investigate how to leverage pre-collected datasets to improve the policy performance and sample efficiency of RL.
arXiv:2608. 20084v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robots executing long-horizon manipulation tasks from natural-language instructions must reason about both semantic task structure and geometric feasibility.
arXiv:2608. 20114v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mobile manipulation requires a robot to predict how locomotion and arm motion jointly alter future observations and control.
arXiv:2512. 18046v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, commonly known as, drones pose increasing risks in civilian and defense settings, demanding accurate and real-time drone detection systems.
arXiv:2512. 10668v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A deep understanding of the physical world is essential for robotic manipulation and physically realistic simulation.
arXiv:2608. 04720v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Real-time object detectors achieve remarkable accuracy under controlled conditions, yet degrade sharply on non-ideal inputs-fisheye distortion, game-rendered content, aerial views, and 360{\deg}panoramas.
arXiv:2608. 19776v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current dexterous grasp planners primarily optimize for physical stability, focusing on whether an object can be grasped rather than how it should be grasped to support downstream functional tasks.
arXiv:2608. 19380v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While modern autonomous driving systems excel at perception tasks such as object detection and trajectory prediction, they lack the high-level causal reasoning required to interpret traffic accidents.
arXiv:2608. 19490v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: State-of-the-art vision-language-action (VLA) models such as $\pi_{0.
arXiv:2608. 19589v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pretrained Vision-Language-Action models provide a strong foundation for robot learning, but sequentially adapting them to diverse skills can perturb the representations and velocity mappings used by previous skills, leading to catastrophic forgetting.
arXiv:2608. 20308v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Egocentric video offers scalable manipulation data for embodied AI, yet recovering metric 3D hand trajectories remains challenging due to severe object occlusion and frequent out-of-sight gaps.
arXiv:2608. 19212v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Out-of-context (OOC) misinformation pairs authentic images with misleading captions to construct false narratives without image manipulation, making detection a problem of multimodal alignment rather than image forensics.
arXiv:2602. 13710v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models enable instruction-following embodied control, but their large compute and memory footprints hinder deployment on resource-constrained robots and edge platforms.
arXiv:2608. 20271v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid proliferation of memecoins on blockchain platforms has increased the risk of fraudulent activities, particularly rug pulls.
arXiv:2608. 19891v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: How to efficiently finetune robot policies to learn new tasks on the fly?
arXiv:2608. 19794v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The convergence of large language models (LLMs), structured knowledge bases (KBs), and reasoning ability (RA) presents a promising trajectory toward general embodied intelligence (GEI).
