Egocentric human data provides a scalable source of experience for robot learning, but varies substantially in human-robot alignment, behavioral coverage, and available supervision. Existing work shows favorable scaling with increasing human data, but it remains unclear which data properties drive downstream robot gain …
Robot policies increasingly incorporate semantic reasoning and future-world prediction, yet combining these capabilities does not guarantee that local predictions and actions remain aligned with task progress. We introduce CogWAM, a cognition-guided world-action model that establishes an explicit semantic interface bet …
World-action models jointly learn robot policies and predict future observations, making the representation space an interface between control and prediction. We study the design of this space through controlled comparisons, finding that neither reconstruction fidelity nor pre-trained perceptual features alone ensure e …
