This paper treats robot task transfer as a question of how video prediction and action supervision divide the work, and reports that unlabeled videos of new tasks lift out-of-distribution success from 25% to 56%, with one labeled demo per task raising it to 71%. The benchmark gains are reported on specific simulated suites (RoboTwin 2.0, RoboCasa, DOMINO), so readers should check how well they transfer to real hardware. The most reusable idea is the inverse-dynamics framing: video coverage may matter more than action labels for generalization.
WorldBridge: Bridging Video and Action for Task Generalization in World Action Models
arXiv:2610.40748v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Achieving the broad task generalization of embodied models in physical environments remains a central challenge in robot learning. We study this challenge in World Action Models (WAMs) through two complementary capabilities: video generalization, which predicts the visual evolution of new tasks, and action generalization, which translates these predictions into executable behavior through a video-to-action bridge. By varying video and action supervision for tasks outside an initial training set, we examine their respective contributions to task transfer. On RoboTwin 2.0, using only in-distribution video-action supervision yields a 25.07% success rate on out-of-distribution tasks. Introducing videos of these tasks without their action labels raises success to 55.90%, while adding just one action-labeled demonstration per task further improves it to 70.70%. These findings suggest that broader video coverage enables task transfer by leveraging existing inverse-dynamics capabilities, while even sparse action supervision further strengthens those capabilities. Guided by this perspective, we introduce WorldBridge, a WAM with separate video and action experts connected through structured attention and trained with joint flow matching. WorldBridge incorporates visual memory at two temporal scales and action forcing, alongside a unified data processing pipeline that standardizes and filters heterogeneous robot trajectories and egocentric hand-derived supervision. Across multiple manipulation benchmarks, WorldBridge achieves state-of-the-art performance among the compared methods, including 96.23% on RoboTwin 2.0 full data setting and 80.9% on clean to random setting, 82.8% on RoboCasa GR1 TableTop, and 57.6% on DOMINO Level-1. Our study highlights the complementary roles of video prediction and action grounding in developing robots that generalize across tasks.
