Vision-Language-Action models (VLAs) are increasingly deployed in safety-critical physical environments, yet their adversarial robustness remains poorly understood. Existing attacks typically assume white-box access or rely on surrogate VLAs, which rarely holds in real-world deployments. Our key insight is that most VL …

Learning general-purpose robot policies requires large-scale real-world interaction data, yet collecting robot demonstrations remains expensive and difficult to scale. Egocentric videos offer abundant human interaction experience with task-relevant semantics for robotic manipulation, but direct transfer is challenging …

World-action models (WAMs) jointly generate future world states and actions through iterative denoising, using shared weights to process heterogeneous semantic streams of video, proprioceptive, and action tokens. Quantization reduces inference cost, but comparable numerical errors in different streams can have markedly …

World-action models (WAMs) leverage pretrained video models to improve generalization in robot control by jointly predicting future visual states and actions. This capability comes at a substantial inference cost, as dense future-frame tokens are repeatedly processed during denoising. Prior methods address this by toke …

Equipping VLM agents with world modeling capabilities has shown strong potential for complex reasoning and long-horizon planning, while reducing the dependence of policy learning on costly real-world interactions. Existing methods mainly rely on prospective simulation to predict the consequences of candidate actions. H …

Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) improves language-model reasoning by comparing verified rewards among multiple solution rollouts for each query. However, difficult training queries can yield only incorrect rollouts, leaving GRPO with no reward contrast or learning signal. Prior hint-based methods construct au …
