Learning and Transferring Closed-Loop Robot Software

The value of execution-improved software as a resource for acquiring new policies in this setting is demonstrated, although initial references remain better on two target tasks when averaged across runs.

Improving Cross-embodiment Transfer in Latent Action Models with Action-Similarity Supervision

This work evaluates cross-embodiment transfer on RoboTwin 2.0 in a controlled setup, two bimanual robots demonstrate disjoint task sets, a policy is trained on all the demonstrations, and each robot is evaluated closed-loop on the tasks only the other demonstrated.

TacSushi: Tactile-Grounded World-Action Modeling for Dexterous Sushi Manipulation

Comparisons support complementary benefits of feature-wise gated tactile fusion and training-only predictive supervision of TacSushi, a tactile-grounded, Cosmos3-based world-action policy that learns from recorded future consequences while acting on current observations.

AURORA: A Natural Language-Driven Agentic Framework for Understanding, Reasoning, and Orchestrating Reliable Air-Ground Co-Simulation

The results show that reliable scenario generation requires verifying realized behavior, not merely executable code, and demonstrate the value of explicit intermediate representations for verifiable and repairable language-driven co-simulation.

CoreSense: Traceable Failure Recall and Conflict-Aware Belief Gating for Auditable Robot Decisions

CoreSense is presented, a robot-system integration architecture that combines traceable episodic evidence with a conflict-aware belief gate and bounded, auditable recommendations that supports an auditable integration pattern, not autonomous recovery or certified safety.

Predict Before You Deploy: Offline Prediction of Quantization-Induced Task Degradation for World Action Models

PreDE (Predict Before You Deploy), a policy-calibrated framework for predicting quantization-induced task degradation from offline action deviations, supports policy-specific behavioral calibration for quantization configuration selection while identifying candidates that require closed-loop evaluation.

From Rollout to Reset: A Graph-Based Harness for Autonomous Long-Horizon Manipulation Evaluation

HALTER, a Harness for Autonomous Long-horizon Task Evaluation and Reset, which restores the scene by planning over a library of learned atomic reset skills, so demonstration cost scales with the size of that library rather than with the number of terminal states.

Kinematics-Grounded Agentic AI for Robotic Additive Manufacturing Process Planning

This paper presents agentic robotic additive manufacturing (A-RAM), an agent-specialist-tool framework that converts user intent and a part file into traceable, execution-ready plans that is evaluated on a six-axis robotic-arm AM cell through three case studies covering expert-specified planning, goal-only planning, ob...

REACT: A Fully Spiking State-Space Model for Real-Time Event-Driven Temporal Perception

REACT is proposed, a fully spiking state-space model for event-driven temporal perception that processes raw events one by one, without temporal accumulation, and shows that event-driven spiking state-space dynamics can provide low-latency, continuously updated temporal perception for reactive robotic systems.

JEPA-WAM: Connecting Generated Visual Instructions to World Action Models through JEPA Latent Representations

World Action Models (WAMs) have demonstrated strong robotic manipulation capabilities by augmenting pretrained video generative models with action experts. However, current WAMs still show limited instruction-following ability when conditioned solely on text instructions. We argue that this limitation stems in part fro...

Constraint-Safe Graph-Context Scoring for Stable Point-Feature Labels Under Text-Width and Accessibility-Inspired Profiles

Point-feature label placement on interactive maps must reconcile geometric validity, display yield, local placement utility, and stability across camera motion. Accessibility and multilingual requirements further change label dimensions, yet algorithmic evaluations often collapse these concerns into overlap counts. We...

Offloaded inference for real-world physical AI robotics

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.
