ReSim: Generating High-Fidelity Simulation Data via 3D-Photorealistic Real-to-Sim for Robotic Manipulation
Xiaoshen Han, Junqiu Yu, Minghuan Liu +6
Real-world data collection for robotics is costly and resource-intensive, requiring skilled operators and expensive hardware. Simulations offer a scalable alternative but often fai…
LA4VLA: Learning to Act without Seeing via Language-Action Pretraining
Tao Lin, Yuxin Du, Yiran Mao +13
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models are commonly pretrained on robot demonstrations by jointly mapping visual observations and language instructions to actions. However, dense visu…
AffordanceVLA: A Vision-Language-Action Model Empowering Action Generation through Affordance-Aware Understanding
Qize Yu, Jiadi You, Yuran Wang +10
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models leverage the rich world knowledge of pretrained vision-language models (VLMs) to enable instruction-following robotic manipulation. However, the…
SIM1: Physics-Aligned Simulator as Zero-Shot Data Scaler in Deformable Worlds
Yunsong Zhou, Hangxu Liu, Xuekun Jiang +12
Robotic manipulation with deformable objects represents a data-intensive regime in embodied learning, where shape, contact, and topology co-evolve in ways that far exceed the varia…
UltraDexGrasp: Learning Universal Dexterous Grasping for Bimanual Robots with Synthetic Data
Sizhe Yang, Yiman Xie, Zhixuan Liang +4
Grasping is a fundamental capability for robots to interact with the physical world. Humans, equipped with two hands, autonomously select appropriate grasp strategies based on the…
InstructVLA: Vision-Language-Action Instruction Tuning from Understanding to Manipulation
Shuai Yang, Hao Li, Bin Wang +7
To operate effectively in the real world, robots should integrate multimodal reasoning with precise action generation. However, existing vision-language-action (VLA) models often s…
