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…

Planning-aligned Token Compression for Long-Context Autonomous Driving

Zhixuan Liang, Yuxiao Chen, Yurong You +12

Monolithic vision-action models represent an emerging paradigm in autonomous driving. However, this architecture produces token sequences that quickly exceed real-time computationa…

Accelerating Structured Chain-of-Thought in Autonomous Vehicles

Yi Gu, Yan Wang, Yuxiao Chen +8

Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning enhances the decision-making capabilities of vision-language-action models in autonomous driving, but its autoregressive nature introduces signific…

Counterfactual VLA: Self-Reflective Vision-Language-Action Model with Adaptive Reasoning

Zhenghao "Mark" Peng, Wenhao Ding, Yurong You +11

Recent reasoning-augmented Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have improved the interpretability of end-to-end autonomous driving by generating intermediate reasoning traces. Yet…

The Case for Negative Data: From Crash Reports to Counterfactuals for Reasonable Driving

Jay Patrikar, Apoorva Sharma, Sushant Veer +3

Learning-based autonomous driving systems are trained mostly on incident-free data, offering little guidance near safety-performance boundaries. Real crash reports contain precisel…

Driving Everywhere with Large Language Model Policy Adaptation

Boyi Li, Yue Wang, Jiageng Mao +4

Adapting driving behavior to new environments, customs, and laws is a long-standing problem in autonomous driving, precluding the widespread deployment of autonomous vehicles (AVs)…
