Vesta: A Generalist Embodied Reasoning Model
Johan Bjorck, Zhiqi Li, Yunze Man +29
Robots operating in open-world environments must seamlessly integrate localization, spatial reasoning, navigation, and long-horizon planning. While specialist models excel at indiv…
T-Rex: Tactile-Reactive Dexterous Manipulation
Dantong Niu, Zhuoyang Liu, Zekai Wang +31
The ability to react dynamically to tactile signals has long been considered crucial to agile human-level dexterity. Yet contemporary learning-based Vision-Language-Action (VLA) mo…
Contrastive Action-Image Pre-training for Visuomotor Control
Yuvan Sharma, Dantong Niu, Anirudh Pai +16
Existing vision encoders for robotics face a fundamental bottleneck: robotic datasets lack the scale necessary for large-scale pre-training. Prior work circumvents this data scarci…
EgoScale: Scaling Dexterous Manipulation with Diverse Egocentric Human Data
Ruijie Zheng, Dantong Niu, Yuqi Xie +12
Human behavior is among the most scalable sources of data for learning physical intelligence, yet how to effectively leverage it for dexterous manipulation remains unclear. While p…
World Action Models are Zero-shot Policies
Seonghyeon Ye, Yunhao Ge, Kaiyuan Zheng +33
State-of-the-art Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models excel at semantic generalization but struggle to generalize to unseen physical motions in novel environments. We introduce Drea…
DreamGen: Unlocking Generalization in Robot Learning through Video World Models
Joel Jang, Seonghyeon Ye, Zongyu Lin +25
We introduce DreamGen, a simple yet highly effective 4-stage pipeline for training robot policies that generalize across behaviors and environments through neural trajectories - sy…
