CoRe-WAM: Correspondence-Aligned Temporal Residuals for World Action Models

Comparing current and past observations helps robots understand scene changes and select subsequent actions during manipulation. However, comparing visual features at the same image location can mix different scene content when objects or the camera move. We introduce CoRe-WAM, a world-action model that incorporates correspondence-aligned visual changes through a parameter-efficient temporal interface. Its TraceDelta module uses correspondences from a frozen tracking model to transport historical visual features to current locations before computing signed differences in a shared pretrained feature space. Correspondence thus determines which historical content is compared with the present, rather than entering the policy as a separate trajectory representation. A lightweight adapter converts these differences into validity-gated residuals that supplement current visual conditioning, allowing the policy to use recent changes alongside current-scene information. Built on Motus, CoRe-WAM keeps the pretrained backbone weights frozen and optimizes 1.59 million parameters. With a 5,000-update adaptation budget, CoRe-WAM achieves 92.22% clean success across 50 RoboTwin 2.0 tasks, 3.56 percentage points above Motus; on randomized evaluation, it achieves 89.60% success, a 2.58-point gain. Integrating TraceDelta into a StarVLA-based policy improves clean success from 58.10% to 67.62%, supporting transfer of the temporal interface beyond Motus.

SRPO: Self-Reflective Policy Optimization for Long-Horizon Reasoning

Self-reflection is a powerful mechanism for credit assignment in human learning, converting sparse outcome feedback into actionable guidance. However, its potential for post-training Large Language Models (LLMs) remains underexplored. We propose Self-Reflective Policy Optimization (SRPO), a framework that internalizes this capability. SRPO enables LLMs to analyze their own completed trajectories, synthesize errors into concise "reflection patches," and use reflection-conditioned teacher scores on student on-policy rollouts as dense token-level training signals. This process effectively transforms sparse terminal supervision into dense, token-level learning signals without requiring external critics, separate reward models, or larger teacher models. We demonstrate that SRPO achieves state-of-the-art performance across mathematical reasoning and long-horizon agentic benchmarks with exceptional data efficiency. Using a Qwen3-8B base model, SRPO attains 73.3% on AIME'24 using only 8% (0.08x) of the training FLOPs required by scaled supervised fine-tuning, while significantly improving success rates on WebShop (64.7%), ALFWorld (76.8%), and SWE-Bench-Lite (31.2%).

REAL: Robust Extreme Agility via Spatio-Temporal Policy Learning and Physics-Guided Filtering

Extreme legged parkour demands rapid terrain assessment and precise foot placement under highly dynamic conditions. While recent learning-based systems achieve impressive agility, they remain fundamentally fragile to perceptual degradation, where even brief visual noise or latency can cause catastrophic failure. To overcome this, we propose Robust Extreme Agility Learning (REAL), an end-to-end framework for reliable parkour under sensory corruption. Instead of relying on perfectly clean perception, REAL tightly couples vision, proprioceptive history, and temporal memory. We distill a cross-modal teacher policy into a deployable student equipped with a FiLM-modulated Mamba backbone to actively filter visual noise and build short-term terrain memory actively. Furthermore, a physics-guided Bayesian state estimator enforces rigid-body consistency during high-impact maneuvers. Validated on a Unitree Go2 quadruped, REAL successfully traverses extreme obstacles even with a 1-meter visual blind zone, while strictly satisfying real-time control constraints with a bounded 13.1 ms inference time.

Machine Learning for Electronic Design Automation: A Survey

With the down-scaling of CMOS technology, the design complexity of very large-scale integrated (VLSI) is increasing. Although the application of machine learning (ML) techniques in electronic design automation (EDA) can trace its history back to the 90s, the recent breakthrough of ML and the increasing complexity of EDA tasks have aroused more interests in incorporating ML to solve EDA tasks. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of existing ML for EDA studies, organized following the EDA hierarchy.
