Addressing the Orchestration Gap in Generalist Robots via Physical Agency
Liane Galanti, Dhruv Shah, Tri Dao
General-purpose robots need to reason about their actions, combining perception, world knowledge, planning, success detection, recovery, and low-level control. Today's state-of-the…
Emergent Compositional Skills in Mixture-of-Experts VLAs
Shlok Shah, Rhiaan Jhaveri, Tharun Kumar Tiruppali Kalidoss +3
We consider the problem of learning compositional robot policies end-to-end from expert demonstrations, without any pre-specified notion of task decomposition or hierarchy. We ask…
RoboVista: Evaluating Vision Language Models for Diverse Robot Applications
Shuangyu Xie, Kaiyuan Chen, Ziyang Chen +8
Diverse applications for robotics, such as industry and agriculture, require robots to operate across various embodiments, changing visual conditions, and complex planning. Vision-…
Towards Data-Driven Metrics for Social Robot Navigation Benchmarking
Pilar Bachiller-Burgos, Ulysses Bernardet, Luis V. Calderita +8
This paper presents a joint effort towards the development of a data-driven Social Robot Navigation metric to facilitate benchmarking and policy optimization for ground robots. We…
Gemma 4 Technical Report
Gemma Team, Sherif El Abd, Vaibhav Aggarwal +320
We introduce Gemma 4, a new generation of open-weight, natively multimodal language models in the Gemma model family. Designed to advance compute efficiency and reasoning, the Gemm…
RAVEN: Long-Horizon Reasoning & Navigation with a Visuo-Spatio-Temporal Memory
Yixun Hu, Zhicheng Zheng, Lihan Zha +5
Long-term robot deployment requires a compact and scalable memory that preserves fine-grained visual semantics, grounds observations in space and time, and enables efficient storag…
