AR-VLA: Autoregressive Action Expert for Vision–Language–Action Models

RSS 2026poster

We propose a standalone autoregressive (AR) Action Expert that generates actions as a continuous causal sequence while conditioning on refreshable vision-language prefixes. In contrast to existing Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models and diffusion policies that reset temporal context with each new ob…

FM-Steer: Enhance Generalist Policies with Value-Guided Cascaded Denoising

CVPR 2026

Humans naturally allocate more time before acting when handling complex tasks in the physical world. This paradigm has recently led to remarkable advances in boosting Large Language Models (LLMs) on complex tasks in digital domains. However, the potential of test-time computing remains largely unexp

TeamTR: Trust-Region Fine-Tuning for Multi-Agent LLM Coordination

ICML 2026poster

Multi-agent LLM systems can improve reasoning and tool use, yet recent evidence shows their gains are often unstable and sensitive to interaction design. A promising direction is to \emph{train} collaboration, but team post-training introduces a moving-target effect: when agents interact through a s…

FUSE: Label-Free Image-Event Joint Monocular Depth Estimation via Frequency-Decoupled Alignment and Degradation-Robust Fusion

IROS 2025

Image-event joint depth estimation methods leverage complementary modalities for robust perception, yet face challenges in generalizability stemming from two factors: 1) limited annotated image-event-depth datasets causing insufficient cross-modal supervision, and 2) inherent frequency mismatches be

From Evasion to Concealment: Stealthy Knowledge Unlearning for LLMs

ACL 2025finding

LLM Unlearning plays a crucial role in removing sensitive information from language models to mitigate potential misuse. However, previous approaches often treat nonsensical responses or template-based refusals (e.g., “Sorry, I cannot answer.”) as the unlearning target, which can give the impression…

Invisible Entropy: Towards Safe and Efficient Low-Entropy LLM Watermarking

EMNLP 2025

Logit-based LLM watermarking traces and verifies AI-generated content by maintaining green and red token lists and increasing the likelihood of green tokens during generation. However, it struggles in low-entropy scenarios, where predictable outputs make green token selection difficult without disru

SpatialVLA: Exploring Spatial Representations for Visual-Language-Action Models

RSS 2025poster

In this paper, we claim that spatial understanding is the keypoint in robot manipulation, and propose SpatialVLA to explore effective spatial representations for the robot foundation model. Specifically, we propose Ego3D Position Encoding to inject 3D information into VLA’s input observations, and i…

Think Small, Act Big: Primitive Prompt Learning for Lifelong Robot Manipulation

CVPR 2025poster

Learning a generalist robot that can effectively leverage prior knowledge for continuous skill acquisition remains significantly challenging. Despite the success of experience replay and parameter-efficient methods in maintaining knowledge across skills, naively applying these methods causes a failu…

MLLMGuard: A Multi-dimensional Safety Evaluation Suite for Multimodal Large Language Models

NeurIPS 2024poster

Powered by remarkable advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs), Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) demonstrate impressive capabilities in manifold tasks. However, the practical application scenarios of MLLMs are intricate, exposing them to potential malicious instructions and thereby posin…
