AECNav: Active Evidence Consolidation for Efficient Zero-Shot Open-Vocabulary Object Navigation
Guanlin Liu, Shaobin Ling, Renyuan Liu +2
Zero-shot object-goal navigation (ZSON) in open-vocabulary scenarios is challenging, as it requires a robot to locate an arbitrarily specified object in an unseen environment witho…
Token-Wise Latent Streaming from Slow Reasoners to Fast Planners for Dynamic Vision Language Navigation
Tianshuai Hu, Yangyi Zhong, Zeying Gong +7
Vision-Language Navigation in dynamic, human-centric environments exposes a fundamental tension: linguistic reasoning is slow and deliberative, whereas safe, socially compliant pla…
FutureNav: Unified World-Action Modeling for Vision-and-Language Navigation
Lingfeng Zhang, Zeying Gong, Xiaoshuai Hao +7
Vision-and-language navigation (VLN) in continuous environments requires an agent to ground instructions in egocentric observations while maintaining spatial understanding across l…
AffordanceVLA: A Vision-Language-Action Model Empowering Action Generation through Affordance-Aware Understanding
Qize Yu, Jiadi You, Yuran Wang +12
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models leverage the rich world knowledge of pretrained vision-language models (VLMs) to enable instruction-following robotic manipulation. However, the…
NavThinker: Action-Conditioned World Models for Coupled Prediction and Planning in Social Navigation
Tianshuai Hu, Zeying Gong, Lingdong Kong +7
Social navigation requires robots to act safely in dynamic human environments. Effective behavior demands thinking ahead: reasoning about how the scene and pedestrians evolve under…
FLUX: Accelerating Cross-Embodiment Generative Navigation Policies via Rectified Flow and Static-to-Dynamic Learning
Zeying Gong, Yangyi Zhong, Yiyi Ding +6
Autonomous navigation requires a broad spectrum of skills, from static goal-reaching to dynamic social traversal, yet evaluation remains fragmented across disparate protocols. We i…
The RoboSense Challenge: Sense Anything, Navigate Anywhere, Adapt Across Platforms
Lingdong Kong, Shaoyuan Xie, Zeying Gong +135
Autonomous systems are increasingly deployed in open and dynamic environments -- from city streets to aerial and indoor spaces -- where perception models must remain reliable under…
Vision-Language-Action Models for Autonomous Driving: Past, Present, and Future
Tianshuai Hu, Xiaolu Liu, Song Wang +17
Autonomous driving has long relied on modular "Perception-Decision-Action" pipelines, where hand-crafted interfaces and rule-based components often break down in complex or long-ta…
SocialNav-Map: Dynamic Mapping with Human Trajectory Prediction for Zero-Shot Social Navigation
Lingfeng Zhang, Erjia Xiao, Xiaoshuai Hao +7
Social navigation in densely populated dynamic environments poses a significant challenge for autonomous mobile robots, requiring advanced strategies for safe interaction. Existing…
Stairway to Success: An Online Floor-Aware Zero-Shot Object-Goal Navigation Framework via LLM-Driven Coarse-to-Fine Exploration
Zeying Gong, Rong Li, Tianshuai Hu +6
Deployable service and delivery robots struggle to navigate multi-floor buildings to reach object goals, as existing systems fail due to single-floor assumptions and requirements f…
From Cognition to Precognition: A Future-Aware Framework for Social Navigation
Zeying Gong, Tianshuai Hu, Ronghe Qiu +1
To navigate safely and efficiently in crowded spaces, robots should not only perceive the current state of the environment but also anticipate future human movements. In this paper…
