This paper presents an invertible neural network adapter for general robotic manipulation, designed to generate precise high-dimensional actions conditioned on multimodal observati…
RePO-VLA: Recovery-Driven Policy Optimization for Vision-Language-Action Models
Weijia Liufu, Xiaoyu Guo, Ruiyi Chen +16
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models remain brittle in long-horizon, contact-rich manipulation because success-only imitation provides little supervision for execution drift, while…
ManipArena: Comprehensive Real-world Evaluation of Reasoning-Oriented Generalist Robot Manipulation
Yu Sun, Meng Cao, Yang Ping +24
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models and world-action models have emerged as central paradigms for general-purpose robotic intelligence, yet their empirical progress remains constra…
GLaD: Geometric Latent Distillation for Vision-Language-Action Models
Minghao Guo, Meng Cao, Jiachen Tao +5
Most existing Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models rely primarily on RGB information, while ignoring geometric cues crucial for spatial reasoning and manipulation. In this work, we…
Seeing through Imagination: Learning Scene Geometry via Implicit Spatial World Modeling
