WB-WAM：ヒューマノイド移動操作のための異種全身・手事前学習

原文アブストラクト

Humanoid loco-manipulation demands coordinated body and hand behavior, while conventional robot pre-training data provide limited coverage of such whole-body motion. We present WB-WAM, a World Action Model that incorporates explicit whole-body action supervision into generative video pre-training. A shared physical action space integrates body, root, and dexterous hand annotations from heterogeneous sources, enabling joint video and action learning from 1880.2 hours of partially annotated video and motion data. The resulting priors are refined through PICO mid-training and adapted to robot tasks with auxiliary forward kinematics supervision. We construct WB-Datasets to support these stages with retargeted egocentric human demonstrations and robot trajectories, allowing task-aligned human motion to supplement limited robot data. Evaluations in simulation demonstrate strong whole-body task performance with 81.9% in HumanoidArena, while real-world experiments further validate WB-WAM with 84.0% mean success across five tasks. Moreover, task-aligned PICO mid-training improves downstream task performance while reducing the need for real-robot demonstrations. These results support heterogeneous whole-body pre-training and human motion transfer as a practical route to data-efficient humanoid loco-manipulation.
