arXiv:2608. 14379v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have recently achieved promising performance in robotic manipulation.
arXiv:2608. 14481v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As heterogeneous robotic systems deploy across diverse urban zones, maintaining safety amid complex human-robot interactions remains a critical challenge.
arXiv:2608. 13605v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Natural language provides robots with a flexible task interface, but target ambiguity in embodied environments arises not only from user intent; it can also result from missing taskrelevant physical evidence in the current observation.
arXiv:2608. 13600v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study Evolution Strategies (ES) for continual control, where agents must adapt to changing tasks without forgetting previous ones.
arXiv:2604. 16509v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Many robotic exploration algorithms rely on graph structures for frontier-based exploration and dynamic path planning.
arXiv:2608. 14047v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper integrates end-to-end Visual-Language-Action (VLA) models with agentic tool-use to propose Agentic Robot with Tool-use (ART).
Camera-based object detectors are vulnerable to physical adversarial attacks designed to suppress detections. While adversarial training and input purification offer some protection, they often overfit to specific attack distributions and fail on adaptive adversaries.
arXiv:2608. 12932v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models promise to bring end-to-end reasoning to autonomous driving, but their computational cost remains far too high for real-time control.
arXiv:2603. 01891v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Action chunking improves exploration and accelerates value propagation in long-horizon reinforcement learning, but naively applying off-policy methods to the temporally extended action space at reduced decision frequency offsets these gains, leading to poor sample efficiency.
arXiv:2608. 12917v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Developing effective robot navigation methods in crowded environments is essential for real-world applications.
arXiv:2608. 12864v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Public blockchain data enables large-scale DeFi-related analysis, but many existing approaches are application-specific, difficult to scale, or hard to interpret.
arXiv:2608. 12564v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automating empirical research is a long-standing direction of AI.
arXiv:2608. 13415v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We consider the problem of autonomously learning robot skills under a limited practice budget for sequential tasks.
arXiv:2511. 07820v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite the rise of billion-parameter foundation models trained across thousands of graphical processing units (GPUs), similar scaling gains have not been shown for humanoid control.
arXiv:2601. 11729v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Visual Foundation Models (VFMs), such as DINO and CLIP, excel in semantic understanding of images but exhibit limited spatial reasoning capabilities, which limits their applicability to embodied systems.
arXiv:2608. 12854v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous driving requires planning under both semantic constraints and predictive dynamics.
arXiv:2608. 12719v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Routing each query to a cost-effective large language model (LLM) is critical for balancing quality and cost, yet most routers rely on a centralized task center to predict model performance, creating an information-risk mismatch and a scalability bottleneck as the model pool grows.
arXiv:2608. 12743v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Spatial intelligence is becoming a foundation for embodied agents, robotic planning, and multimodal assistants.
arXiv:2506. 01568v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Being able to solve a task in diverse ways makes agents more robust to task variations and less prone to local optima.
arXiv:2608. 13453v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have emerged as generalist robotic policies capable of following diverse language instructions and performing a wide range of manipulation tasks.
