While generalist vision-language-action (VLA) models have enabled diverse open-world manipulation, real-world robotic assistance requires two critical capabilities they currently lack: personalization and reliable execution. First, executing an instruction like"make me a sandwich"requires grounding subtask decompositio...

This work proposes VLAct, a VLA-oriented VLM backbone trained on broad, heterogeneous, multi-embodiment robot data before task-specific fine-tuning, showing that representation-centric continued pre-training can deliver highly competitive performance under a modest compute budget and is an important independent axis of...
MemVLN is proposed, a novel VLN framework that achieves state-of-the-art performance with real-time inference efficiency (14 FPS) and introduces Procedural Memory for fast action with a compact vocabulary of atomic mid-level actions to bypass auto-regressive decoding latency.
