Dive into the Scene: Breaking the Perceptual Bottleneck in Vision-Language Decision Making via Focus Plan Generation
arXiv:2606.04046v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In embodied vision-language decision making tasks such as robotic manipulation and navigation, Vision-Language and Vision-Language-Action Models (VLMs & VLAs) are powerful tools with different benefits: VLMs are better at long-term planning, while VLAs are better at reactive control. However, their performance is limited by the same perceptual bottleneck: visual hallucinations arise due to the models' inability to distinguish task-relevant...
SleepWalk: A Three-Tier Benchmark for Stress-Testing Instruction-Guided Vision-Language Navigation
arXiv:2605.10376v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have advanced rapidly in multimodal perception and language understanding, yet it remains unclear whether they can reliably ground language into spatially coherent, plausibly executable actions in 3D digital environments. We introduce SleepWalk, a benchmark for evaluating instruction-grounded trajectory prediction in single-scene 3D worlds generated from textual scene descriptions and filtered for navigability....
SEDualVLN: A Spatially-Enhanced Dual-System for Vision-Language Navigation
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-Language Navigation (VLN) approaches have currently followed two primary paradigms: the end-to-end Vision-Language Model (VLM) policy fine-tuned on navigation trajectories to directly predict actions, and the zero-shot modular pipeline integrating pre-trained Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) for training-free generalization to unseen environments. However, end-to-end methods struggle with long-horizon navigation and lack dynamic reasoning,...
NavOne: One-Step Global Planning for Vision-Language Navigation on Top-Down Maps
arXiv:2605.06317v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing Vision-Language Navigation (VLN) methods typically adopt an egocentric, step-by-step paradigm, which struggles with error accumulation and limits efficiency. While recent approaches attempt to leverage pre-built environment maps, they often rely on incrementally updating memory graphs or scoring discrete path proposals, which restricts continuous spatial reasoning and creates discrete bottlenecks. We propose Top-Down VLN (TD-VLN),...
ImagineUAV: Aerial Vision-Language Navigation via World-Action Modeling and Kinodynamic Planning
Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-language navigation (VLN) for UAVs demands grounding free-form instructions into 6-DoF flight under partial observability. While Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models excel at semantic reasoning, they suffer from brittleness due to geometric inconsistency and dynamics mismatch. To address this, we propose ImagineUAV, an imagination-driven framework leveraging cascaded world-action modeling.
Goal2Pixel: Grounding Goals to Pixels for Vision-Language Navigation
arXiv:2606.01621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) have become a common foundation for vision-and-language navigation in continuous environments (VLN-CE). Yet most VLM-based methods cast navigation as low-level action prediction, an interface that is ambiguous, tied to short-horizon motion primitives, and inefficient due to repeated VLM querying. We propose Goal2Pixel, a pure pixel-based paradigm that reformulates VLN-CE as navigable pixel grounding.
Hierarchical Semantic-Augmented Navigation: Optimal Transport and Graph-Driven Reasoning for Vision-Language Navigation
Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language Navigation in Continuous Environments (VLN-CE) poses a formidable challenge for autonomous agents, requiring seamless integration of natural language instructions and visual observations to navigate complex 3D indoor spaces. Existing approaches often falter in long-horizon tasks due to limited scene understanding, inefficient planning, and lack of robust decision-making frameworks. We introduce the \textbf{Hierarchical Semantic-Augmented...
Dual-Anchoring: Addressing State Drift in Vision-Language Navigation
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-Language Navigation(VLN) requires an agent to navigate through 3D environments by following natural language instructions. While recent Video Large Language Models(Video-LLMs) have largely advanced VLN, they remain highly susceptible to State Drift in long scenarios. In these cases, the agent's internal state drifts away from the true task execution state, leading to aimless wandering and failure to execute essential maneuvers in the instruction.
Beyond Waypoints: A Trajectory-Centric Waypointing Paradigm for Vision-Language Navigation
Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language Navigation in Continuous Environments (VLN-CE) requires agents to follow natural-language instructions while navigating in real-world-like environments. Most VLN-CE approach\-es adopt a three-stage framework: a waypoint predictor proposes navigable waypoints, and a navigator selects the best waypoint, with a low-level controller executing the movement to it. However, this decoupled paradigm often leads to unreachable waypoints or inconsistencies...
