Task Editing for Generalizable 3D Visuomotor Policy Learning

3D visuomotor policies offer a promising direction for complex robotic manipulation, as depth maps and point clouds provide rich geometric information for spatial reasoning. However, their success often depends on large-scale real-world demonstrations, which are costly and time-consuming to collect. To this end, existing methods commonly use demonstration generation strategies to improve data efficiency by applying object-centric transformations to human-collected demonstrations, such as varying object poses or scales. While effective for local variation, these transformations largely preserve the original scene structure and skill sequence, limiting their ability to synthesize diverse scene-skill-object combinations for complex tasks. In this paper, we propose Task-Edit, a novel demonstration generation framework that generates diverse trajectories from a task-centric editing perspective. The key insight of Task-Edit is to decompose a task into scene, skill and object components, and flexibly recombine them. In this way, Task-Edit enables scalable demonstration generation and significantly improves generalization for long-horizon manipulation tasks. We evaluate Task-Edit through extensive real-world experiments and demonstrate three advantages: (1) Effectiveness: Task-Edit significantly improves 3D visuomotor policies across various real-world tasks and robot embodiments. (2) Generalizability: Task-Edit improves model generalization across different scenario setups. (3) Applicability: Task-Edit enables models to handle scenarios that are difficult to collect in the real world, including disturbance resistance, obstacle avoidance and unseen cluttered scenes.

Bridging Domain Expertise and Generalization for Performance Estimation

Performance estimation under distribution shift aims to predict how a model behaves on an unlabeled test set whose distribution differs from the training data, a scenario that requires reliable indicators that can faithfully reflect model behavior without ground-truth labels. Existing approaches rely solely on the outputs of the given model whose biases are amplified once the distribution shifts, weakening the correlation with the true performance. Motivated by this limitation, we propose Fused Reference Alignment Prediction (FRAP), which leverages the complementary strengths of an external foundation model and the base model to construct a more reliable surrogate of the ground-truth labels. FRAP aligns the prediction distribution of the foundation model with that of the base model by applying temperature-scaled calibration that minimizes their divergence. The aligned predictions are fused through confidence-based weighting into a refined reference distribution that integrates robustness from the foundation model and domain-specific expertise from the base model, and performance estimation is obtained by measuring how closely the base model predictions agree with this reference. Extensive experiments across diverse datasets and architectures show that FRAP provides consistent and substantial improvements over representative performance-estimation methods under distribution shift.

From Abstraction to Instantiation: Learning Behavioral Representation for Vision-Language-Action Model

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models often suffer from performance degradation under distribution shifts, as they struggle to learn generalized behavior representations across varying environments. While existing approaches attempt to construct behavior representations through action-centric latent variables, they are often limited by short-horizon temporal fragmentation and static execution-alignment, leading to inconsistent behaviors in complex scenarios. To address these limitations, we propose \textbf{BehaviorVLA}, a framework that facilitates robust manipulation through the learning of a temporally coherent behavioral representations. Our approach features two symmetric components: (1) the \textbf{Visuomotor Behavior Encoder (VBE)}, which utilizes a causal Mamba-based architecture to aggregate long-horizon trajectory information into a unified behavior representation; and (2) the \textbf{Phase-conditioned Behavior Decoder (PBD)}, which decodes this representation into precise actions by dynamically aligning task-level priors with real-time execution progress. Experiments on RoboTwin 2.0, LIBERO, and CALVIN demonstrate state-of-the-art success rates of 58\%, 98\%, and 4.36 (Avg.Len), respectively. Notably, in real-world sim-to-real transfer, BehaviorVLA matches the performance of OpenVLA-OFT using only 50\% of the demonstration data, showcasing its superior data efficiency and generalization.

Humanoid Whole-Body Manipulation via Active Spatial Brain and Generalizable Action Cerebellum

In this paper, we explore spatial-aware humanoid whole-body manipulation task. Compared with tabletop settings, this task poses two key challenges: 1) Spatial understanding is challenging in complex 3D environments with diverse spatial relations. 2) Action generation is difficult to generalize, as limited and costly real-robot data restricts data-driven models generalization. To address these challenges, we propose a generalizable humanoid loco-manipulation framework that leverages the spatial perception and action generation capabilities of multi-agent large models. Specifically, our framework includes two components: Active Spatial Brain for active spatial perception and decision-making, and Generalizable Action Cerebellum for executable robot action generation. The first component actively perceives the spatial scene and makes decisions on task planning and subtask decomposition. The second component generate executable robot actions based on the decisions made by the first module without needs of task-specific real robot data. To benchmark our framework, we design a set of spatial manipulation tasks from two perspectives: evaluating spatial perception and understanding, and assessing real-robot task performance. The results demonstrate strong performance on both aspects across diverse tasks and environments.

HarmoGS: Robust 3D Gaussian Splatting in the Wild via Conflict-Aware Gradient Harmonization

In-the-wild 3D Gaussian Splatting remains challenging due to transient distractors and illumination-induced cross-view appearance inconsistencies. Existing methods mainly rely on image-level masking to suppress unreliable supervision, but masking alone cannot fully eliminate residual occlusions or resolve illumination-induced inconsistencies, both of which can introduce conflicting cross-view gradients. These unresolved conflicts may destabilize Gaussian optimization and lead to visible reconstruction artifacts. We propose a conflict-aware 3DGS framework that addresses this problem from both image-space supervision and gradient-level optimization. Semantic Consistency-Guided Masking learns pixel-wise consistency scores to adaptively refine prior masks and suppress unreliable supervision before gradient formation. A dual-view Conflict-Aware Gradient Harmonization strategy further reconciles view-specific gradients by mutually rotating them into an orthogonal configuration, reducing negative directional interference across views. We also introduce conflict-aware densification and pruning to stabilize Gaussian growth and remove persistently conflicting primitives. Extensive experiments on standard in-the-wild benchmarks demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art rendering quality under complex transient distractors and cross-view inconsistencies.

Breaking $\textit{Winner-Takes-All}$: Cooperative Policy Optimization Improves Diverse LLM Reasoning

Reinforcement learning with verifiers (RLVR) has become a central paradigm for improving LLM reasoning, yet popular group-based optimization algorithms like GRPO often suffer from exploration collapse, where the models prematurely converge on a narrow set of high-scoring patterns, lacking the ability to explore new solutions. Recent efforts attempt to alleviate this by adding entropy regularization or diversity bonus. However, these approaches do not change the \textit{winner-takes-all} nature, where rollouts still compete for individual advantage rather than cooperating for maximizing global diversity. In this work, we propose Group Cooperative Policy Optimization (GCPO), which shifts the training paradigm from rollout competition to team cooperation. Specifically, GCPO replaces independent rollout scoring with team-level credit assignment: a rollout is rewarded by how much it contributes to the team's valid solution coverage, rather than its individual accuracy. This coverage is described as a determinant volume over reward-weighted semantic embeddings, where only correct and non-redundant rollouts contribute to this volume. During advantage estimation, GCPO redistributes the collective team reward to each single rollout according to its average marginal contribution to the team. This cooperative training paradigm routes optimization toward non-redundant correct reasoning paths. Experiments across multiple reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that GCPO significantly improves both reasoning accuracy and solution diversity over existing approaches. Code will be released at $\href{https://github.com/bradybuddiemarch/gcpo}{this}$.

Learning Action Manifold with Multi-view Latent Priors for Robotic Manipulation

This paper tackles spatial perception and manipulation challenges in Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models. To address depth ambiguity from monocular input, we leverage a pre-trained multi-view diffusion model to synthesize latent novel views and propose a Geometry-Guided Gated Transformer (G3T) that aligns multi-view features under 3D geometric guidance while adaptively filtering occlusion noise. To improve action learning efficiency, we introduce Action Manifold Learning (AML), which directly predicts actions on the valid action manifold, bypassing inefficient regression of unstructured targets like noise or velocity. Experiments on LIBERO, RoboTwin 2.0, and real-robot tasks show our method achieves superior success rate and robustness over SOTA baselines.

DataClaw: A Process-Oriented Agent Benchmark for Exploratory Real-World Data Analysis

Evaluating autonomous data analysis agents requires testing their ability to perform exploratory analysis in underexplored data environments. However, many existing benchmarks emphasize final answer accuracy in prior-guided data settings and provide limited support for reasoning process evaluation. We introduce DataClaw, a process-oriented benchmark for exploratory real-world data analysis. DataClaw contains approximately 2.06 million real-world records across enterprise, industry and policy domains, with native data noise preserved. It further includes 492 cross-domain tasks derived from think-tank consulting scenarios, each annotated with intermediate milestones for process-level evaluation. These annotations allow DataClaw to measure how far an agent progresses and where its reasoning breaks down. Experiments with eight advanced LLMs show that current agents remain far from reliable in this setting, with seven models achieving below 50% overall accuracy. Process analysis further reveals partial progress hidden behind wrong answers and distinct exploration strategies across models. Overall, DataClaw provides a less data constrained diagnostic testbed for probing the capability boundaries of autonomous data-analysis agents.

DynProto: Dynamic Prototype Evolution for Out-of-Distribution Detection

Recent studies show that using potential out-of-distribution (OOD) labels from large corpora as auxiliary information can improve OOD detection in vision-language models (VLMs). However, these methods often fail when real-world OOD samples fall outside the predefined OOD label set. To address this limitation, we propose DynProto, a novel approach that learns OOD prototypes dynamically during testing using only in-distribution (ID) information. DynProto is inspired by a key observation: OOD samples predicted as the same ID class tend to cluster in the feature space. With this insight, we leverage easy-to-detect OOD samples as ``anchors'' to find their harder-to-detect, similar counterparts. To this end, DynProto introduces two modules: \textbf{Coarse OOD Pattern Capturing Module} caches OOD patterns that are easily confused with each ID class during testing, and \textbf{Fine-grained OOD Pattern Refinement Module} subsequently clusters these patterns within each cache and aggregates them into representative OOD prototypes. By measuring similarity to ID and dynamic OOD prototypes, DynProto enables accurate OOD detection. DynProto significantly outperforms prior methods across multiple benchmarks. On ImageNet OOD benchmark, DynProto reduces FPR95 by 11.60\% and improves AUROC by 4.70\%. Moreover, the framework is architecture-agnostic and can be integrated into various backbones.

RAFT-MSF++: Temporal Geometry-Motion Feature Fusion for Self-Supervised Monocular Scene Flow

Monocular scene flow estimation aims to recover dense 3D motion from image sequences, yet most existing methods are limited to two-frame inputs, restricting temporal modeling and robustness to occlusions. We propose RAFT-MSF++, a self-supervised multi-frame framework that recurrently fuses temporal features to jointly estimate depth and scene flow. Central to our approach is the Geometry-Motion Feature (GMF), which compactly encodes coupled motion and geometry cues and is iteratively updated for effective temporal reasoning. To ensure the robustness of this temporal fusion against occlusions, we incorporate relative positional attention to inject spatial priors and an occlusion regularization module to propagate reliable motion from visible regions. These components enable the GMF to effectively propagate information even in ambiguous areas. Extensive experiments show that RAFT-MSF++ achieves 24.14% SF-all on the KITTI Scene Flow benchmark, with a 30.99% improvement over the baseline and better robustness in occluded regions.
