Manipulation, locomotion, sim-to-real transfer and autonomous driving: learning systems that have to survive physics.
arXiv:2607. 27138v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) models remain constrained by scarce action-labeled robot data, whereas action-free videos offer abundant observations of physical change.
arXiv:2607. 26651v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With the promising performance of deep neural networks on image-based tasks, different real-world applications such as autonomous driving and motion detection have become increasingly mature and relevant to human lives.
arXiv:2607. 26452v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World models must learn the joint dynamics of states, actions, events, and observations, yet existing video, robotics, and simulation datasets usually capture only part of this structure.
arXiv:2607. 26464v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Physical Unified Device Architecture (PUDA) is an AI-native hardware harness for self-driving laboratories (SDLs).
arXiv:2607. 26935v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bot detectors deployed at scale treat traffic as binary: human or bot.
arXiv:2607. 26307v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Contemporary LLM-based coding agents produce code as black-box outputs: the rationale behind each line is hidden, the evolution of the code through benchmark-driven repair is ephemeral, and post-hoc auditing is impossible.
arXiv:2607. 26434v2 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying learned control policies on low-cost robotic platforms introduces transport latencies and noisy motor feedback that systematically widens the sim-to-real gap.

arXiv:2607. 26903v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The key bottleneck in embodied AI is not model architecture but data.
arXiv:2509. 11594v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: GBPP is a fast learning based scorer that selects a robot base pose for grasping from a single RGB-D snapshot.
arXiv:2607. 26121v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Embodied intelligence integrates learned perception and decision making with real-time computation, control, and physical interaction.
arXiv:2607. 28229v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The web is increasingly accessed by AI agents rather than humans.
arXiv:2607. 27924v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In the physical world we inhabit, space and time are fundamentally continuous.

Gemini Robotics ER 2 helps robots reason, collaborate, and solve real-world tasks. It represents a step change in video understanding, tool orchestration, and multi-robot collaboration for robotic applications.
World models give embodied AI a predictive core: they compress observations into states, simulate action-conditioned futures, and enable planning beyond reactive control. This predictive layer, however, opens a new security boundary-compromise can propagate from data, sensors, prompts, or feedback into physical action.
Credit assignment is a fundamental challenge in cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning, particularly in embodied AI settings characterized by limited and delayed feedback as well as dynamically changing numbers of active agents. We propose MARS-RA, a framework that reformulates credit assignment as a rank aggregation problem using contribution-based pairwise comparisons among agents generated by large multimodal models.
Flow matching (FM) has become a popular action head paradigm for modern embodied models. However, as a conditional generative model, it does not explicitly expose its inherent uncertainty, producing faulty action chunks even when it misinterprets the scene or encounters out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs.
In the physical world we inhabit, space and time are fundamentally continuous. However, existing machine learning paradigms for world modeling are largely confined to discrete-time prediction, thereby exhibiting significant inefficiency in capturing the dynamics of physical world.
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have attracted growing interest as a scalable approach to robotic manipulation. While these models are effective action predictors, deploying them as robotic agents exposes critical gaps: no mechanism for failure recovery, inconsistent execution over long horizons, and limited robustness to shifts in observations, tasks, or embodiments.
