Multimodal representations enable zero-shot classification and retrieval, but aligning independently trained models usually requires large amounts of paired data. Yet, the Platonic Representation Hypothesis suggests that models trained on different modalities may converge spontaneously toward a shared representation ge …

Long-horizon world-model planning typically relies on autoregressive rollouts, where predicted states are repeatedly fed back into the model. This preserves temporal structure but creates a horizon-length sequential path and exposes later predictions to recursive decoded-state feedback. We introduce Parallel Predictive …

Efficient action generation in vision-language-action (VLA) models requires capturing both coarse action structure and fine-grained details. Discrete action tokens provide compact structural representations but sacrifice precision, while continuous action tokens offer high precision but often require multiple denoising …

World action models improve robotic manipulation by conditioning actions on predicted futures, yet existing tactile variants largely inherit video-generation pipelines that reconstruct future tactile observations through iterative denoising. Such prediction can become unreliable under deployment drift: small changes in …

Scientific software presents a demanding test for computer-using agents based on visual language models (VLMs): completing a research workflow requires interpreting specialized interfaces, manipulating scientific objects, and producing verifiable results. We thus introduce OSWorld-Science, a benchmark and evaluation en …

Robots have significant potential to automate construction processes. However, their industry adoption remains limited, partly because of the programming effort required to adapt robots to diverse tasks. This paper presents a skill sequence planning method that enables a heterogeneous team of multi-functional robots to …

Scientific code repositories encode decades of human knowledge in executable models, methods, and tools. Yet fragmented toolchains, implicit domain conventions, and specialized correctness criteria make this knowledge difficult to convert into reliable learning experience-a challenge we call the scientific experience b …
