Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarms increasingly rely on language-model agents to provide adaptive mission-level reasoning in uncertain environments. Fully distributed control, in which each UAV hosts an independent Small Language Model (SLM), removes reliance on a centralized coordinator but introduces an information...
World Action Models (WAMs) predict visual futures and robot actions, yet they remain susceptible to task-incomplete imagination, where plausible, action-consistent predictions omit the transition needed for task completion. In this paper, we show that this failure is not inherent to the world model backbone, but emerge...
Quadrupedal locomotion requires balancing conflicting objectives such as command tracking, stability, and energy efficiency, yet conventional reinforcement learning (RL) hardcodes these priorities into a fixed scalar reward at training time. We present PROMO (Preference-Conditioned Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learnin...
A hierarchical framework for spacecraft task-and-motion planning (TAMP) that grounds LLM reasoning in a graph of reusable behaviors and domain-specific planning modules is presented, establishing a scalable and auditable foundation for language-driven agentic planning of spacecraft RPO.

Vision-language-action (VLA) models struggle on history-dependent manipulation tasks, where the current observation alone does not determine the action, and the policy needs a memory of the history. Existing memory methods decide what to remember by design, for example, keeping frames with large pixel changes, and show...
Learned manipulation policies rediscover from data the spatial relations that rigid-body mechanics supplies in closed form. This costs data, and it leaves the policies fragile to geometric changes in the scene. We present Screw Attention, a transformer layer in which the relation between two bodies is a spatial transfo...
Autoregressive Vision-Language-Action models often represent continuous robot actions as discrete token sequences, enabling action prediction with standard next-token objectives. FAST has substantially improved this representation by compactly encoding action containing diverse temporal frequencies into relatively few...
In this paper, we study how to achieve one-step action generation in Robotic Foundation Models (RFMs), aiming to overcome the high inference latency of multi-step flow matching. MeanFlow provides a promising framework for this goal, yet its direct application leads to performance collapse. We discover that this stems f...
Unsupervised skill discovery has emerged as a promising approach for leveraging reward-free datasets to pretrain general-purpose policies. However, current skill discovery methods either require access to expert data or exhibit limited generalization, failing to transfer effectively to previously unseen layouts. A key...
Vision-language-action policies often see only one or a few recent frames, which makes it difficult to evaluate how they use information that disappears during a task. We introduce MIKASA-Robo-VLA, a benchmark of 90 language-conditioned manipulation tasks. All but 10 hide the cue an action depends on. Those 10 are reac...
Reasoning-enabled VLA policies expose chain-of-thought (CoT) traces that appear to explain and guide their actions, creating a potential interface for runtime safety through reasoning monitoring and correction. In this work, we define and operationalize two evaluation axes for assessing when this interface can improve...
World-model planners typically scale outward by rolling farther, sampling more trajectories, or optimizing longer, while assigning the same computation to every imagined transition. We show that making every transition uniformly deeper wastes computation and can degrade planning because useful refinement is concentrate...
Robots are getting smarter, but how can their hardware match that growth? New Microsoft Research findings show that moving AI inference beyond the robot can improve task success, boost efficiency, and support more advanced physical AI workloads. The post Offloaded inference for real-world physical AI robotics appeared first on Microsoft Research.
