LLM-as-a-Verifier: A General-Purpose Verification Framework

Jacky Kwok, Shulu Li, Pranav Atreya +6

Scaling pre-training, post-training, and test-time compute have become the central paradigms for improving the capabilities of LLMs. In this work, we identify verification, the abi…

DIRECT: When and Where Should You Allocate Test-Time Compute in Embodied Planners?

Jadelynn Dao, Milan Ganai, Yasmina Abukhadra +7

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are increasingly deployed as high-level planners for embodied agents, with an emerging strategy of scaling test-time compute to improve capability. Ho…

MEM: Multi-Scale Embodied Memory for Vision Language Action Models

Marcel Torne, Karl Pertsch, Homer Walke +14

Conventionally, memory in end-to-end robotic learning involves inputting a sequence of past observations into the learned policy. However, in complex multi-stage real-world tasks,…

Scaling Verification Can Be More Effective than Scaling Policy Learning for Vision-Language-Action Alignment

Jacky Kwok, Xilun Zhang, Mengdi Xu +4

The long-standing vision of general-purpose robots hinges on their ability to understand and act upon natural language instructions. Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have made r…
