Beyond Interaction Capacity: Estimator Scaling with Recursive Models for CTR Prediction
Shivang Chopra, Fotis Iliopoulos, Zsolt Kira +1
Click-Through Rate prediction, a core task in recommendation and advertising systems, relies on modeling interactions among sparse categorical features. Explicit cross networks are…
CAPEX: Efficiently Distilling Foundation Model Behavior into Deployable Robot Policies through Experience-Adaptive Reasoning
Shivam Aarya, Zhang Xi-Jia, Chengyue Huang +6
Robot learning has largely relied on human-teleoperated demonstrations to acquire effective learnable behaviors. However, human-operated data collection processes can be unintuitiv…
Opt2VLA: Force-Aware Vision-Language-Action for Contact-Rich Humanoid Whole-Body Manipulation
Fukang Liu, Yipu Chen, Jaehwi Jang +3
Humanoid robots are expected to perform diverse human-level tasks in daily environments, many of which require precise regulation of interaction forces. While recent vision-languag…
Lies We Can See: Joint Verbal and Non-Verbal Deception by VLM Agents in Embodied Social Interactions
Jaewoo Ahn, Junseo Kim, Hyunseo Kim +4
Strategic deception by LLM and VLM agents has emerged as a central AI alignment and safety concern. Social-deduction games (where each player holds a hidden role and communicates w…
K9-Bench: Evaluating Multimodal LLMs on Canine-Centric Videos
Khush Attarde, Yusuf Ali, Megha Thukral +3
MLLMs have shown strong zero-shot capabilities across diverse inputs such as across images, video, audio, and text. A crucial, yet underexplored, application of these models lies i…
SafeManip: A Property-Driven Benchmark for Temporal Safety Evaluation in Robotic Manipulation
Chengyue Huang, Khang Vo Huynh, Sebastian Elbaum +3
Robotic manipulation is typically evaluated by task success, but reaching the correct final state does not guarantee safe execution. A robot may succeed despite contamination, prem…
Video2Sim2Real: Full-Stack Autonomous Dexterous Skill Acquisition from a Single Human Video
Yunhai Han, Jianuo Qiu, Linhao Bai +14
Human manipulation videos are a convenient and intuitive source for robot learning. However, directly transferring human dexterity to robots remains challenging due to perception e…
SeeTraceAct: Visibility-Aware Latent Planning from Cross-Embodiment Demonstration Videos
Jaehyeon Son, Junhyun Kim, Kyle Kam +7
Vision-language-action models (VLAs) are promising general-purpose robot policies, but adapting them to new tasks typically requires costly task-specific teleoperation data. As an…
Hide-and-Seek in Trajectories: Discovering Failure Signals for VLA Runtime Monitoring
Seongheon Park, Wendi Li, Changdae Oh +4
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models enable robots to follow natural language instructions and generalize across diverse tasks, but they remain vulnerable to execution failures that…
The Geometry of Robustness: Optimizing Loss Landscape Curvature and Feature Manifold Alignment for Robust Finetuning of Vision-Language Models
Shivang Chopra, Shaunak Halbe, Chengyue Huang +2
Fine-tuning approaches for Vision-Language Models (VLMs) face a critical three-way trade-off between In-Distribution (ID) accuracy, Out-of-Distribution (OOD) generalization, and ad…
SAGE: Sink-Aware Grounded Decoding for Multimodal Hallucination Mitigation
Tripti Shukla, Zsolt Kira
Large vision-language models (VLMs) frequently suffer from hallucinations, generating content that is inconsistent with visual inputs. Existing methods typically address this probl…
Sim2real Image Translation Enables Viewpoint-Robust Policies from Fixed-Camera Datasets
Jeremiah Coholich, Justin Wit, Robert Azarcon +1
Vision-based policies for robot manipulation have achieved significant recent success, but are still brittle to distribution shifts such as camera viewpoint variations. Robot demon…
