WOVEN: Weaving Visual World Modeling into Multimodal LLMs

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) struggle with spatial, embodied, physical, and temporal reasoning. We hypothesize that these failures reflect a shared deficit in visual transition reasoning, and test whether this capability can serve as a shared training primitive, one that different models can learn from diff...

DreamAvoid: Critical-Phase Test-Time Dreaming to Avoid Failures in VLA Policies

This work proposes DreamAvoid, a critical-phase test-time dreaming framework that enables VLA models to anticipate and avoid failures, and introduces an autonomous boundary learning paradigm to refine the system's understanding of the subtle boundary between success and failure.

WorldAgen: Unified State-Action Prediction with Test-Time World Model Training

WorldAgen is presented, a unified framework that jointly learns world modeling and action prediction while enabling test-time training (TTT) to adapt to new environments, and surpasses existing state-of-the-art models at inference time.

HumanCLAW: Can Vision-Language Models Act Through a Body?

This work introduces HumanCLAW, an evaluation framework that decouples action decision-making from low-level execution in a vision-language model (VLM), and builds HumanCLAW-Bench, a database of 1,218 long-horizon, egocentric find-navigate-interact episodes across 41 indoor scenes.

MANIGUARD: A Benchmark and Data Suite for Specification-Grounded Safety Evaluation and Improvement of Robotic Manipulation

Foundation-model policies for robotic manipulation are advancing rapidly on task success, but rigorous evaluation of whether they succeed safely is still lacking. We introduce ManiGuard, a specification-grounded framework for evaluating and improving the safety of foundation-model manipulation, comprising the ManiGuard...
