Spatial-Aware Reduction Framework Boosts Efficiency and Accuracy of Visual State Space Models
Researchers propose STORM, a spatial-aware token reduction framework for visual state space models. It maintains structural integrity during compression, achieving state-of-the-art pruning accuracy. On VMamba, STORM recovers up to 63.3% of top-1 accuracy, with only a 1.0% drop on PlainMamba.
LaWAM: Latent World Action Model Enables Efficient, Dynamics-Aware Robot Control with Low Latency
LaWAM (Latent World Action Model) is a new robotics AI that uses compact latent visual subgoals instead of full video generation to achieve fast, dynamics-aware robot control. It achieves state-of-the-art success rates on LIBERO (98.6%) and RoboTwin (91.22%) with 187ms per action-chunk and up to 24x lower latency than pixel-space World Action Models.
ToolMenuBench: New Benchmark Evaluates Tool-Menu Filtering for Reliable and Efficient LLM Agents
ToolMenuBench, a new benchmark from researchers, evaluates how tool-menu filtering strategies affect LLM agent reliability and efficiency. In tests across seven model backends, causal minimal tool filtering improved task success from 32.1% to 85.7% while reducing token usage by roughly 98%.
