This post covers the 2nd and 3rd robotics papers from RSS:
- Long-Context Robot Imitation Learning by Focusing on Key History Frames: Discusses the challenges of training history-conditioned policies, proposing that models focus on key historical frames to handle complex tasks requiring long-horizon understanding, like treasure hunts.
- LAP: Language-Action Pre-training Enables Zero-Shot Cross-Embodiment Transfer: Proposes using language actions and an aligned action space to achieve zero-shot transfer across embodiments, claiming a new SOTA for open-weight VLA in academia.
