Frozen perception foundation models encode rich geometric, semantic, and dynamic knowledge. Yet narrow conditioning interfaces may attenuate task-relevant cues, while static fusion cannot adjust expert contributions to each scene. We cast this challenge as the prior-to-plan trans…
Vision-language alignment, the stage that bridges pretrained vision encoders and large language models, is widely treated as a form of pretraining requiring full-parameter updates. We challenge this view and investigate what happens when low-rank adaptation is applied to the LLM…
As web agents increasingly demonstrate capabilities in automated task execution, the development of robust evaluation frameworks for assessing their navigation and task completion performance has emerged as a critical research priority. However, existing benchmarks exhibit fundam…
World-model-based autonomous driving endows the model with the ability to understand scene evolution. Yet this promise is undermined by the prevailing imagine-then-act paradigm, which allows errors from the more challenging visual generation stage to cascade into action planning.…
