Thinking in Video: Can Video Generators Really Reason About the Real World?

Yongheng Zhang, Guang Yang, Ruihan Hou, Qiguang Chen, Ziang Liu, Xiaolong Liu, et al.

Recent advances in world models and video generation have given rise to an emerging reasoning paradigm that leverages video generative models to simulate, predict, and reason about real-world dynamics. We redefine this paradigm as Thinking in Video, where video is not merely an o…

XS-VLA: Coupling Coarse-grained Spatial Distillation with Latent Flow Matching for Lightweight Robotic Control

Lei Iok Tong, Qingchen Xie, Wei Huang, Ying Jie Yap, Yujie Zhang, Qianzhi Li, et al.

Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have shown strong multimodal understanding and spatial grounding, but their computational cost limits real-time robotic control. In contrast, lightweight models are suitable for edge deployment but often suffer from "spatial blindness", namely…

ACE: Agentic Control for Embodied Manipulation via Zero-shot Workflow Reasoning

Iok Tong Lei, QianZhi Li, Ying Jie Yap, Yujie Zhang, Rui Zhong, Haichao Gui, et al.

Open-ended tabletop manipulation requires agents to not only understand natural language but also adapt to dynamic environments and execution failures. We present ACE (Agentic Control for Embodied Manipulation), a zero-shot workflow reasoning framework for tabletop pick-and-place…
