We introduce SAVVY-Bench, the first benchmark for 3D spatial reasoning in dynamic audio-visual scenes. We also propose SAVVY, a novel training-free pipeline integrating egocentric spatial tracks and dynamic global maps, which significantly enhances AV-LLM performance for improved audio-visual spatial awareness in such environments.

PC-Planner: Physics-Constrained Self-Supervised Learning for Robust Neural Motion Planning
We propose PC-Planner, a physics-constrained self-supervised learning framework for robot motion planning in complex 3D environments. By introducing physical constraints and a novel shape-aware distance field (SADF), PC-Planner enables robust and efficient neural planning for robots with various shapes. Experiments in diverse settings show significant gains in success rate and planning time, outperforming classical and learning-based baselines.
