Agentic reinforcement learning (RL) for web search is prohibitively expensive due to long context lengths and costly environment interactions, and this inefficiency is further exacerbated by GRPO-based optimization, which discards learning signals from entire rollout groups with zero reward variance…
Navigation is a fundamental capability in embodied AI, representing the intelligence required to perceive and interact within physical environments. To achieve such intelligence, recent advanced works leverage Vision-Language Models (VLMs), which demonstrate strong generalizability and possess a wel…
We present LightMover, a framework for controllable light manipulation in single images that leverages video diffusion priors to produce physically plausible illumination changes without re-rendering the scene. We formulate light editing as a sequence-to-sequence prediction problem in visual token s
Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) empowers agents to associate time-sequenced visual observations with corresponding instructions to make sequential decisions. However, dealing with visually diverse scenes or transitioning from simulated environments to real-world deployment is still challenging.
The academic field of learning instruction-guided visual navigation can be generally categorized into high-level category-specific search and low-level language-guided navigation, depending on the granularity of language instruction, in which the former emphasizes the exploration process, while the…
Vision-and-language navigation (VLN) stands as a key research problem of Embodied AI, aiming at enabling agents to navigate in unseen environments following linguistic instructions. In this field, generalization is a long-standing challenge, either to out-of-distribution scenes or from Sim to Real.…
Trained with an unprecedented scale of data, large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and GPT-4 exhibit the emergence of significant reasoning abilities from model scaling. Such a trend underscored the potential of training LLMs with unlimited language data, advancing the development of a universal…
Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) task aims to enable AI agents to accurately understand and follow natural language instructions to navigate through real-world environments, ultimately reaching specific target locations. We recognise a promising opportunity to extend VLN to a comparable navigati…
