Pelican-VLA 0.5: Attending Before Acting Benefits Generalization

Zeyuan Ding, Wenhai Liu, Yang Xu +6

In this report, we present Pelican-VLA 0.5, a unified VLA model that integrates vision-language understanding, future-frame generation, and action prediction within a single archit…

VLA-Trace: Diagnosing Vision-Language-Action Models through Representation and Behavior Tracing

Haoyuan Shi, Xiancong Ren, Yingji Zhang +9

Understanding how Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models transform multimodal knowledge into embodied control remains an open challenge. We present VLA-Trace, a progressive diagnostic…

Pelican-Unify 1.0: A Unified Embodied Intelligence Model for Understanding, Reasoning, Imagination and Action

Yi Zhang, Yinda Chen, Che Liu +26

We present Pelican-Unify 1.0, the first embodied foundation model trained according to the principle of unification. Pelican-Unify 1.0 uses a single VLM as a unified understanding…

EPIC-Bench: A Perception-Centric Benchmark for Fine-Grained Embodied Visual Grounding in Vision-Language Models

Haozhe Shan, Xiancong Ren, Han Dong +9

While large vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly adopted as the perceptual backbone for embodied agents, existing benchmarks often rely on question-answering or multiple-…

A2Eval: Agentic and Automated Evaluation for Embodied Brain

Shuai Zhang, Jiayu Hu, Zijie Chen +9

Current embodied VLM evaluation relies on static, expert-defined, manually annotated benchmarks that exhibit severe redundancy and coverage imbalance. This labor intensive paradigm…

Bridging VLMs and Embodied Intelligence with Deliberate Practice Policy Optimization

Yi Zhang, Che Liu, Xiancong Ren +17

Developing a universal and versatile embodied intelligence system presents two primary challenges: the critical embodied data bottleneck, where real-world data is scarce and expens…
