Large datasets and high capacity models have accelerated progress in vision and language. This work introduces a platform aimed at bringing comparable gains to embodied learning, world models, and robotics. We present EnvDreamer, a framework that uses large language and vision language models to generate Unreal Engine 5 environments for embodied AI and robot training. EnvDreamer enables sampling of large, diverse, interactive, customizable, and validator passed virtual environments for training and evaluation across navigation, interaction, and manipulation. We illustrate the platform with a large set of generated scenes and simple baselines. Policies trained on EnvDreamer generated environments, without explicit mapping or human task supervision, achieve competitive results on multiple embodied benchmarks spanning navigation, rearrangement, and manipulation. EnvDreamer also supports image-conditioned reconstruction for real-to-sim studies. Finally, we release EnvDreamer-20k, a dataset of 20,000 validator passed environments with task programs, scene graphs, trajectories, and metadata to support reproducible benchmarking.
This paper investigates developing real-world perception for active agents, proposes Gibson Environment for this purpose, and showcases a set of perceptual tasks learned therein.

GAOKAO-Bench is introduced, an intuitive benchmark that employs questions from the Chinese GAOKAO examination as test samples, including both subjective and objective questions that contribute a robust evaluation benchmark for future large language models and offers valuable insights into the advantages and limitations...

An algorithm is proposed which leverages disentangled semantic factors to generate adversarial perturbation by altering controlled semantic attributes to fool the learner towards various "adversarial" targets.

This work proposes a HALO that directly maximizes the utility of generations instead of maximizing the log-likelihood of preferences, and suggests that the best loss depends on the inductive biases most appropriate for a given setting, an oft-overlooked consideration.
This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
This work shows that orders of magnitude enhancement in performance could be obtained by a combination of hardware improvements and tight quantum-HPC integration and introduces high-performance architectures for quantum-probabilistic computing with custom-designed accelerators to tackle today's industry-scale classical...
