Abstract:The advancement of robot learning is currently hindered by the scarcity of large-scale, high-quality datasets. While established data collection methods such as teleoperation and universal manipulation interfaces dominate current datasets, they suffer from inherent limitations in scalability and real-world deployability. Human egocentric video collection, by contrast, has emerged as a promising approach to enable scalable, natural and in-the-wild data collection. As such, we present EgoLive, a large-scale, high-quality egocentric dataset designed explicitly for robot manipulation learning. EgoLive establishes three distinctive technical advantages over existing egocentric datasets: first, it represents the largest open-source annotated egocentric dataset focused on real-world task-oriented human routines to date; second, it delivers leading data quality via a customized head-mounted capture device and comprehensive high-precision multi-modal annotations; third, all data is collected exclusively in unconstrained real-world scenarios and encompasses vertical field human working data, including home service, retail, and other practical work scenarios, providing superior diversity and ecological validity. With the introduction of EgoLive, we aim to provide the research community with a scalable, high-quality dataset that accelerates breakthroughs in generalizable robotic models and facilitates the real-world deployment of robot systems.
Abstract:Robotic autonomy in open-world environments is fundamentally limited by insufficient data diversity and poor cross-embodiment generalization. Existing robotic datasets are often limited in scale and task coverage, while relatively large differences across robot embodiments impede effective behavior knowledge transfer. To address these challenges, we propose JoyAI-RA, a vision-language-action (VLA) embodied foundation model tailored for generalizable robotic manipulation. JoyAI-RA presents a multi-source multi-level pretraining framework that integrates web data, large-scale egocentric human manipulation videos, simulation-generated trajectories, and real-robot data. Through training on heterogeneous multi-source data with explicit action-space unification, JoyAI-RA effectively bridges embodiment gaps, particularly between human manipulation and robotic control, thereby enhancing cross-embodiment behavior learning. JoyAI-RA outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both simulation and real-world benchmarks, especially on diverse tasks with generalization demands.
Abstract:We introduce JoyAI-LLM Flash, an efficient Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language model designed to redefine the trade-off between strong performance and token efficiency in the sub-50B parameter regime. JoyAI-LLM Flash is pretrained on a massive corpus of 20 trillion tokens and further optimized through a rigorous post-training pipeline, including supervised fine-tuning (SFT), Direct Preference Optimization (DPO), and large-scale reinforcement learning (RL) across diverse environments. To improve token efficiency, JoyAI-LLM Flash strategically balances \emph{thinking} and \emph{non-thinking} cognitive modes and introduces FiberPO, a novel RL algorithm inspired by fibration theory that decomposes trust-region maintenance into global and local components, providing unified multi-scale stability control for LLM policy optimization. To enhance architectural sparsity, the model comprises 48B total parameters while activating only 2.7B parameters per forward pass, achieving a substantially higher sparsity ratio than contemporary industry leading models of comparable scale. To further improve inference throughput, we adopt a joint training-inference co-design that incorporates dense Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) and Quantization-Aware Training (QAT). We release the checkpoints for both JoyAI-LLM-48B-A3B Base and its post-trained variants on Hugging Face to support the open-source community.
Abstract:We present HaoMo Vision-Language Model (HMVLM), an end-to-end driving framework that implements the slow branch of a cognitively inspired fast-slow architecture. A fast controller outputs low-level steering, throttle, and brake commands, while a slow planner-a large vision-language model-generates high-level intents such as "yield to pedestrian" or "merge after the truck" without compromising latency. HMVLM introduces three upgrades: (1) selective five-view prompting with an embedded 4s history of ego kinematics, (2) multi-stage chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting that enforces a Scene Understanding -> Driving Decision -> Trajectory Inference reasoning flow, and (3) spline-based trajectory post-processing that removes late-stage jitter and sharp turns. Trained on the Waymo Open Dataset, these upgrades enable HMVLM to achieve a Rater Feedback Score (RFS) of 7.7367, securing 2nd place in the 2025 Waymo Vision-based End-to-End (E2E) Driving Challenge and surpassing the public baseline by 2.77%.
Abstract:End-to-end autonomous driving faces persistent challenges in both generating diverse, rule-compliant trajectories and robustly selecting the optimal path from these options via learned, multi-faceted evaluation. To address these challenges, we introduce HMAD, a framework integrating a distinctive Bird's-Eye-View (BEV) based trajectory proposal mechanism with learned multi-criteria scoring. HMAD leverages BEVFormer and employs learnable anchored queries, initialized from a trajectory dictionary and refined via iterative offset decoding (inspired by DiffusionDrive), to produce numerous diverse and stable candidate trajectories. A key innovation, our simulation-supervised scorer module, then evaluates these proposals against critical metrics including no at-fault collisions, drivable area compliance, comfortableness, and overall driving quality (i.e., extended PDM score). Demonstrating its efficacy, HMAD achieves a 44.5% driving score on the CVPR 2025 private test set. This work highlights the benefits of effectively decoupling robust trajectory generation from comprehensive, safety-aware learned scoring for advanced autonomous driving.
Abstract:While end-to-end autonomous driving has advanced significantly, prevailing methods remain fundamentally misaligned with human cognitive principles in both perception and planning. In this paper, we propose CogAD, a novel end-to-end autonomous driving model that emulates the hierarchical cognition mechanisms of human drivers. CogAD implements dual hierarchical mechanisms: global-to-local context processing for human-like perception and intent-conditioned multi-mode trajectory generation for cognitively-inspired planning. The proposed method demonstrates three principal advantages: comprehensive environmental understanding through hierarchical perception, robust planning exploration enabled by multi-level planning, and diverse yet reasonable multi-modal trajectory generation facilitated by dual-level uncertainty modeling. Extensive experiments on nuScenes and Bench2Drive demonstrate that CogAD achieves state-of-the-art performance in end-to-end planning, exhibiting particular superiority in long-tail scenarios and robust generalization to complex real-world driving conditions.




Abstract:Depth estimation models have shown promising performance on clear scenes but fail to generalize to adverse weather conditions due to illumination variations, weather particles, etc. In this paper, we propose WeatherDepth, a self-supervised robust depth estimation model with curriculum contrastive learning, to tackle performance degradation in complex weather conditions. Concretely, we first present a progressive curriculum learning scheme with three simple-to-complex curricula to gradually adapt the model from clear to relative adverse, and then to adverse weather scenes. It encourages the model to gradually grasp beneficial depth cues against the weather effect, yielding smoother and better domain adaption. Meanwhile, to prevent the model from forgetting previous curricula, we integrate contrastive learning into different curricula. Drawn the reference knowledge from the previous course, our strategy establishes a depth consistency constraint between different courses towards robust depth estimation in diverse weather. Besides, to reduce manual intervention and better adapt to different models, we designed an adaptive curriculum scheduler to automatically search for the best timing for course switching. In the experiment, the proposed solution is proven to be easily incorporated into various architectures and demonstrates state-of-the-art (SoTA) performance on both synthetic and real weather datasets.
