Embodied Agents Take Control: Minimal-Interface Zero-Shot Agents Rival Industrial-Scale Policies in Vision-and-Language Navigation
Jian Zhou, Xunyi Zhao, Gengze Zhou +4
The paper investigates using general-purpose language models as autonomous embodied agents for zero-shot vision-and-language navigation, showing that with only a monocular RGB came…
Automating the Design of Embodied Agent Architectures
Jian Zhou, Sihao Lin, Jin Li +3
Embodied agents are typically built as hand-designed compositions of perception, memory, planning, and action modules. This modularity exposes a large architectural design space, b…
Ask When It Pays: Cost-Aware Open-Ended Interaction for Instance Goal Navigation
Xunyi Zhao, Sihao Lin, Gengze Zhou +5
Instance Goal Navigation (IGN) requires an embodied agent to find a specific object instance among distractors from an under-specified natural-language description. Such ambiguity…
IntentionNav: A Benchmark for Intent-Driven Object Navigation from Implicit Human Instruction
Lin Qian, Shijie Li, Sihao Lin +4
Existing object navigation benchmarks usually tell an embodied agent which object category to find, such as microwave or chair. Human-facing embodied AI is often asked something le…
Decoupled Action Expert: Confining Task Knowledge to the Conditioning Pathway
Jian Zhou, Sihao Lin, Shuai Fu +3
Many recent Vision-Language-Action models employ diffusion or flow-matching backbones with hundreds of millions of parameters for action generation. However, unlike image synthesis…
One Agent to Guide Them All: Empowering MLLMs for Vision-and-Language Navigation via Explicit World Representation
Zerui Li, Hongpei Zheng, Fangguo Zhao +5
A navigable agent needs to understand both high-level semantic instructions and precise spatial perceptions. Building navigation agents centered on Multimodal Large Language Models…
