Joint-embedding predictive architectures (JEPAs) learn compact latent world models without pixel reconstruction. Existing JEPA pipelines typically train visual representations and action-conditioned dynamics before adding a control policy or solver.

World Action Models (WAMs) incorporate visual representations from video generation backbones to guide action prediction. Recent efficient WAMs adopt Mixture-of-Transformers (MoT) architectures and compute video representations once for reuse by the action expert.

Language models trained with long-horizon agentic reinforcement learning can generalize knowledge through reasoning, express precise actions, and pursue goals over many steps, raising the ceiling on what an embodied agent can understand and decide.

Real-time robot control demands enough visual history to infer motion and task progress, but processing that history can delay action. We present Long-WAM, a model-system framework for scaling the context of causal world-action models under real-time control constraints.

Precise grounding matters. It specifies which object is the target and where that object is, even in clutter and for tiny objects, and it has to be fast enough for closed-loop control.

Long-horizon planning with latent world models requires reasoning across timescales and levels of abstraction. Existing task-agnostic JEPA world models predict and plan at a single timescale or with multiple horizons in one shared latent space.

Large-scale action pretraining equips Embodied Foundation Models (EFMs) with strong manipulation capabilities, with particular strengths in generalization and closed-loop robustness, but reproducing such pretraining requires substantial robot data and computation.

Estimating a humanoid robot's internal state from video has a wide range of real-world applications but remains unexplored. During interactions with a robot, its onboard state information may be unavailable due to privacy, ownership, or communication constraints.

Bimanual manipulation with dexterous hands has attracted growing attention in research on robotic action models. However, few studies have developed benchmarks specifically tailored for dexterous manipulation, leaving the dexterous manipulation capabilities of existing models…

In this paper, we systematically investigate the mechanisms, scaling behavior, and generalization of physical Recursive self-improvement. We introduce PhysRSI-eval to quantify physical RSI through a five-axis metric: First-Attempt Performance, Efficiency, Success, Budget and…
