webAI has released TwIL-LM, a family of formal-logic models at 1.7B and 3B parameters that translate English into first-order logic and check whether conclusions follow from premises. The 3B runs on CPU or 4GB of VRAM; the 1.7B downloads at 1.06GB. Both ship under a non-commercial license. The model card also shows that the headline benchmark scores belong to an unreleased checkpoint, not the weights on the Hub. The post webAI Releases TwIL-LM: A 1.7B and 3B Formal-Logic Model Family for Autoformalization on Local Hardware appeared first on MarkTechPost.

arXiv:2608.07600v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Humans achieve stable and adaptive grasps by seamlessly integrating visual perception and tactile feedback, a capability that remains challenging to replicate in robotic systems. Existing robotic grasping approaches predominantly rely on visual inputs and lack mechanisms for tactile-guided adaptation after contact, limiting robustness and generalization. To address this challenge, we propose a unified visuo-tactile-fusion grasping framework that integrates grasp generation, feasibility prediction, and adaptive refinement. At its core, our method introduces an efficient visuo-tactile representation that tightly fuses object geometry with tactile feedback by associating tactile signals with finger identities. This unified representation suppor…

arXiv:2608.07596v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models transform representations from pretrained vision-language models (VLMs) into robot actions, yet the interface that routes intermediate VLM features into action decoders remains underexplored. Existing designs either expose only a narrow part of the representation hierarchy or rigidly match each decoder block to one VLM layer, restricting access to complementary task evidence across depths. We introduce LIRA, a local cross-layer action-conditioning mechanism that formulates VLM-to-action conditioning as depth-aware information routing. LIRA operates on task-token features and LIRA Query features derived from intermediate VLM states, then assigns each Parallel Fusion Block a depth-aligned local window center…

arXiv:2608.07576v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Robotic construction systems often treat the material system and the robot as separate design problems, locating intelligence primarily in hardware, sensing, motion planning, and control. This project instead investigates how geometric intelligence can be encoded within architected material systems to simultaneously address requirements for robotic grasping, self-alignment, reversible connection, structural performance, and three-dimensional aggregation. We introduce a self-aligning compound nested lattice module composed of conjoined cuboctahedral-octahedral units. The cuboctahedral features of the modules provide defined surfaces for robotic grasping and alignment, while the octahedral features incorporate screw-releasable snap-fit connect…

arXiv:2608.07573v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Model Predictive Path Integral (MPPI) control is widely used in manipulation for its gradient-free, parallel handling of non-convex costs. Manipulation tasks, however, often impose constraints that hold throughout the motion: a closed kinematic chain that two grasping arms keep exactly, or joint limits and obstacle clearances that are never crossed. MPPI handles such constraints only through the cost, as soft penalties that hold approximately and fail under a strong task cost. To address this, we propose Projection-Retraction MPPI (PR-MPPI), which enforces the constraints inside the sampled dynamics. At every rollout step, the sampled velocity is projected to satisfy both constraint types: the equality restricts it to a subspace, and each in…

arXiv:2608.07558v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physically grounded robot intelligence requires robots to perceive, reason about, and regulate their interactions with the physical world. This capability is particularly critical in contact-sensitive manipulation, where successful task execution depends not only on visual perception and motion generation, but also on force regulation and adaptive control. In this context, recent robot learning methods have made substantial progress by integrating force, tactile, vision, language, and proprioceptive sensing into learned manipulation policies. In parallel, many systems adopt multi-phase architectures that combine high-level policies, action-refinement modules, and low-level controllers to bridge semantic task understanding with reactive physi…

arXiv:2608.07557v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language Navigation for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV-VLN) requires rapid and reactive control in complex 3D environments. Recent minimalist end-to-end paradigms show great promise but typically rely on massive language models containing billions of parameters, incurring prohibitive latency for real-world edge deployment. In this paper, we challenge this parameter-heavy reliance. Comprehensive cross-scale evaluations reveal the critical insight that perception quality fundamentally outweighs language reasoning capacity. We demonstrate that a lightweight 2B model equipped with high-fidelity visual inputs completely matches the overall success rates of massive 7B baselines. However, this minimalist policy exposes a fundamental robustnes…

arXiv:2608.07555v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex close the software loop: a main agent manages the loop, subagents analyze and execute, tools do the work. We port this architecture to robot-policy improvement, where one difference dominates the design: robotic tools---trained policies, training pipelines, data collection---fail routinely, so a tool's quality must be measured, recorded at every call, and expired when the artifact behind it changes. AgenticRobotics is a backend-independent control plane in which an LLM controller drives disposable workers through durable train--evaluate--improve transactions: an immutable objective, controller-owned measurement, commit-keyed crash recovery, an evidence-graded skill library, and a tool registry with…

arXiv:2608.07553v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Robotic manipulation often requires object specific programming, manual data annotation, or calibrated perception pipelines, which limits rapid deployment in practical settings. Learning from demonstration offers a more direct alternative, but collecting demonstrations can still demand human teleoperation or kinesthetic teaching. This paper presents a self supervised visual manipulation method in which a robot automatically generates demonstrations around a target pose and learns relative pose corrections directly from wrist mounted RGB images. The proposed pipeline uses ROS~2 and Isaac Sim to collect labeled image-pose pairs without requiring explicit camera to robot extrinsic calibration. Separate datasets are generated for planar refineme…

arXiv:2608.07548v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-and-Language Navigation in Continuous Environments (VLN-CE) requires agents to make fine-grained navigation decisions under partial observability. However, most existing methods rely on open-loop execution, lacking mechanisms to detect and correct internal state drift during inference. We propose SC$^{2}$-WM, a self-correcting world model framework that introduces internal feedback for closed-loop decision making in VLN-CE. Our method derives feedback from world-model foresight to perform state-level plan refinement before action execution. To handle challenging scenarios, we further introduce conditional world-aware adaptation, which enables model-level correction by selectively updating the world model at test time when feedback ind…

arXiv:2608.07546v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs) present diverse configurations and complex control challenges, which can be addressed by deep reinforcement learning (DRL) by learning their nonlinear dynamics. However, DRL methods often require extensive training time, and the resulting policies do not generalize well to different robot configurations or varying numbers of actuators. In this article, we introduce a novel DRL approach for controlling CDPRs that does not depend on the specific robot configuration. Our method trains an actuator-level policy that controls each motor to achieve its target cable length, in contrast to conventional DRL approaches that learn to control the entire robot to reach a desired end-effector position. To the best of ou…

arXiv:2608.07562v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Urban flooding poses an escalating threat to transportation infrastructure, yet no operational system provides real-time, street-level flood-depth estimates at centimeter resolution. This paper presents three vision-language models fine-tuned for continuous flood-depth estimation from street-level imagery: FloodLlama-Dense, a fully fine-tuned QLoRA baseline, and FloodLlama-MI5 and FloodLlama-MI6, interpretability-guided sparse variants that fine-tune only the top five and six causally relevant cross-attention layers identified through mechanistic interpretability analysis, respectively. Training uses an approximately 610,000-image subset of a 2.81-million-image synthetic corpus generated in Unreal Engine 5. The dataset combines single-vehicl…

arXiv:2608.07561v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a silent disease. Its progression may not significantly hamper a person's daily routine. Human kidney function can be classified as normal or as one of the five stages of CKD. Early detection of the CKD stage can help patients understand the functional status of their kidneys and follow medical advice to slow CKD progression. In this paper, we propose XEns-CKD, a novel ensemble vision transformer-based scheme for CKD stage classification using ultrasound images. Three ViTs were trained on a private ultrasound image dataset using different training parameters. The performance of each ViT was evaluated using macro sensitivity, macro specificity, macro precision, macro F1-score, macro Youden index, the Matthews c…
