WALA Learning Executable Latent Actions from Action-Labeled Demonstrations and Action-Free Videos
Jiahao Liu, Zhongpu Xia, Shuai Tian +13
WALA is a framework that learns executable latent actions for robot manipulation by pretraining on both action‑labeled demonstrations and unlabeled videos, predicting future change…
VT-WAM: Visual-Tactile World Action Model for Contact-Rich Manipulation
Shuai Tian, Yupeng Zheng, Yuhang Zheng +7
Contact-rich manipulation requires policies to react to local deformation, pressure, slip, and friction, yet these cues are temporally sparse and often invisible in visual observat…
TacForeSight: Force-Guided Tactile World Model for Contact-Rich Manipulation
Yujie Zang, Yuhang Zheng, Xian Nie +7
Contact-rich manipulation requires robots to continuously perceive and regulate evolving physical interactions under dynamic contact transitions or complex surface geometries. Rece…
Towards Long-Lived Robots: Continual Learning VLA Models via Reinforcement Fine-Tuning
Yuan Liu, Haoran Li, Shuai Tian +5
Pretrained on large-scale and diverse datasets, VLA models demonstrate strong generalization and adaptability as general-purpose robotic policies. However, Supervised Fine-Tuning (…
PokeVLA: Empowering Pocket-Sized Vision-Language-Action Model with Comprehensive World Knowledge Guidance
Yupeng Zheng, Xiang Li, Songen Gu +12
Recent advances in Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have opened new avenues for robot manipulation, yet existing methods exhibit limited efficiency and a lack of high-level know…
OmniVTA: Visuo-Tactile World Modeling for Contact-Rich Robotic Manipulation
Yuhang Zheng, Songen Gu, Weize Li +11
Contact-rich manipulation tasks, such as wiping and assembly, require accurate perception of contact forces, friction changes, and state transitions that cannot be reliably inferre…
