Manipulation, locomotion, sim-to-real transfer and autonomous driving: learning systems that have to survive physics.
arXiv:2608. 03127v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hand motion carries the finest-grained information in human activity, yet the representations behind hand generation, understanding, and robot learning are overwhelmingly continuous--joint angles or MANO parameters.
arXiv:2608. 03682v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physical AI policies require inference throughout their lifecycle, including model evaluation, cloud reinforcement learning rollout, edge GPU serving, and onboard deployment.
arXiv:2608. 03231v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies promise general robotic manipulation, but their robustness against physical-world attacks remains fragile.
arXiv:2608. 02150v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Embodied intelligence and world models require video understanding systems to go beyond recognizing objects and actions and develop an understanding of physical regularities.
arXiv:2608. 02958v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies trained by behavior cloning fail silently: from the action stream alone, a collapsing rollout looks much like one making clean progress, because imitation supplies no notion of progress.
arXiv:2608. 03207v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Flow-matching vision-language-action (VLA) models such as pi0 generate robot actions by integrating a learned denoising velocity field, and have been reported to resist adversarial perturbations that readily fool autoregressive VLAs.
arXiv:2607. 27703v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly used in embodied agents to interpret visual inputs, reason about spatial relationships, and make task-level decisions based on that reasoning.
arXiv:2608. 00747v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models are increasingly integrated into autonomous robotic systems for task planning and control, but this integration exposes them to prompt injection attacks that can lead to unsafe decisions and physical harm.
arXiv:2605. 28114v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Language-model agents are moving from single-user assistants into persistent networks that build trust and reputation with one another, and the same models increasingly control physically embodied robots as well as software.
arXiv:2608. 02638v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) components are increasingly pervasive in several software systems, including Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs).
arXiv:2607. 27933v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Flow matching (FM) has become a popular action head paradigm for modern embodied models.
arXiv:2608. 01755v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models for autonomous driving (AD) increasingly utilize chain-of-thought (CoT) supervision to enhance the reasoning capabilities of their Vision-Language Model (VLM) components, yet existing annotation pipelines commonly expose the teacher model to the logged ground-truth (GT) future trajectory.
arXiv:2608. 02951v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Preference-based reinforcement learning (PbRL) for general stochastic MDPs often requires training a reward model.
arXiv:2608. 03361v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI systems based on Large Language Models (LLMs) have prompted fears that they may harbor hidden goals, seek to dominate or eliminate humanity, or even suffer as sentient beings.
arXiv:2606. 20880v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Decision-making under partial or adversarial observability requires accurate inference of the environment's latent state and its associated uncertainty.
arXiv:2608. 03496v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous robots are moving rapidly from research labs into everyday life - on roads, in the air, in warehouses, and in space.
arXiv:2608. 03483v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing chunk-based Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models execute a fixed number of actions (i.
arXiv:2608. 03378v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The development and testing of advanced aerial robots require experiments in controlled environments with tailored airflow profiles.
arXiv:2608. 03330v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This thesis addresses fundamental challenges in traffic scene prediction for autonomous driving by introducing robust and computationally efficient models based on polynomial representations.
arXiv:2604. 18933v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Robotic manipulation tasks exhibit varying memory requirements, ranging from Markovian tasks that require no memory to non-Markovian tasks that demand in-context memorization of historical information within a single trial or in-context adaptation based on the outcomes of multiple past trials.
