Manipulation, locomotion, sim-to-real transfer and autonomous driving: learning systems that have to survive physics.
arXiv:2607. 00666v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models often fail to perform the same learned tasks under environmental shifts, such as changes in camera pose and shifts to a different but similar robot (e.
arXiv:2607. 00530v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Improvements in the technical performance of human--robot interaction (HRI) systems do not automatically translate into differences that human users can detect during live interaction.
arXiv:2607. 00001v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Most approaches to AI alignment treat human preferences as fixed targets to be inferred and optimized.
arXiv:2607. 00716v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Skeleton-based action recognition has achieved remarkable success by exploiting joint coordinates and their topological connections, yet prevailing methods overwhelmingly assume complete and clean skeleton inputs.
arXiv:2607. 00033v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dexterous robot manipulation can benefit from the abundance of human demonstrations, but transferring such demonstrations to robot policies remains challenging.

arXiv:2607. 00889v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present DeWorldSG, a novel framework that generates spatio-temporally robust 3D Semantic Scene Graphs from RGB-D sequences.
arXiv:2607. 00025v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While deep learning models achieve state-of-the-art performance in complex tasks, they remain brittle when faced with new environments or sensory deprivation.
arXiv:2502. 18975v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Machine learning models are inherently bound to the distribution of the training data, often exploiting non-causal shortcuts.
arXiv:2607. 00808v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pre-training on large-scale videos to improve reinforcement learning efficiency is promising yet remains challenging.
arXiv:2603. 14354v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: End-to-End autonomous driving (E2E-AD) systems face challenges in lifelong learning, including catastrophic forgetting, difficulty in knowledge transfer across diverse scenarios, and spurious correlations between unobservable confounders and true driving intents.
arXiv:2607. 01111v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robot policies inevitably encounter failures when deployed in real environments.
arXiv:2607. 00310v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation video diffusion models are increasingly viewed as world simulators for embodied agents, yet their pretraining on internet-scale generic video leaves them poorly aligned with real-world deployment domains.
arXiv:2607. 01212v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current work on robot furniture assembly mostly focuses on toy-scale settings or single-arm manipulation.
arXiv:2607. 01225v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prior work on imitation learning from suboptimal demonstrations typically relies on compressed supervision signals such as confidence estimates, discriminator scores, or importance weights.

arXiv:2607. 00444v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spatiotemporal motion planning, especially in multi-robot settings, requires robots to reason about collision-free regions that change over time, which is challenging in continuous spaces when feasible regions are transient and geometrically constrained.
