In LLM-based agent systems, failures can originate from early steps whose effects propagate through subsequent interactions, making their origins difficult to identify. To trace such failures back to their origin, failure attribution has been formulated as the task of identifying the earliest step responsible for the f …

Autoregressive video generation requires denoising the current frames while writing their key-value representations as context for future predictions. However, these two roles typically share parameters, and we find that their gradients exhibit distinct patterns and systematic negative alignment, hindering the joint op …

Persistent spatial memory enables embodied agents to navigate familiar environments across repeated visits. However, targets may move while unobserved, including during navigation, making remembered locations unreliable by the time an agent arrives. Despite advances in memory retrieval and state prediction, accounting …

Improving robot policies on new tasks without collecting additional expert demonstrations remains a central challenge in robot learning. World action models (WAMs) use broad video priors to jointly predict future videos and actions, offering a potential source of supervision for adapting to new tasks. However, generate …

Real-world robot learning is constrained by the cost of collecting experience and evaluating candidate behaviors. Video generation models offer a scalable foundation for visual simulators that predict action outcomes before physical execution. Yet they often favor visual plausibility over accurate action following and …

Audio-driven streaming avatar generation requires real-time synthesis of speech-synchronized videos with dynamic and diverse motion. Self Forcing uses Distribution Matching Distillation (DMD) to distill bidirectional video diffusion models into causal, few-step generators for real-time streaming. However, DMD minimizes …
