Recent research has investigated the use of large language models (LLMs) to generate traffic scenarios for autonomous driving. However, pretrained LLMs often fail to align with real-world traffic distributions. In this work, we present TrafficAlign, an automated framework that synthesizes traffic scenarios based on real-world driving videos, performs data validation, and aligns LLMs with the synthesized scenarios. The evaluation shows that traffic scenarios generated by TrafficAlign are highly effective, revealing up to 10.8% more collisions on average across three autonomous driving models than state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, fine-tuning these driving models with TrafficAlign-generated scenarios significantly reduced collision rates by 36.1% compared with the original models. A qualitative study using traffic datasets from six geographically diverse regions shows that TrafficAlign-generated scenarios exhibit strong alignment with corresponding traffic distributions in these regions.
Foundation models in language and multimodality achieve strong generalization by aligning heterogeneous data under a unified formulation and training at scale. In this report, we investigate whether this scaling recipe can be applied to robotic manipulation to achieve genuine generalization. This is challenging because, unlike text, manipulation data is heterogeneous by nature, expensive to collect, and narrow in diversity, making alignment and scale simultaneously difficult. We present Qwen-RobotManip, a generalizable Vision-Language-Action foundation model built on Qwen-VL. Qwen-RobotManip introduces a unified alignment framework across the representation, motion, and behavioral dimensions of manipulation, making large-scale multi-source training coherent rather than conflicting. This alignment capability in turn enables Qwen-RobotManip to absorb manipulation data at a scale that prior training regimes could not sustain. A human-to-robot synthesis pipeline converts egocentric hand demonstrations into robot trajectories across 15 platforms, and a rigorous curation pipeline harmonizes heterogeneous datasets. Using only open-source datasets and human videos without proprietary data collection, Qwen-RobotManip constructs a ~38,100-hour pretraining corpus and exhibits emergent generalization capabilities, including zero-shot instruction following, robustness to perturbations, reactive error recovery, and cross-embodiment transfer. We find that standard benchmarks fail to capture pretraining quality and instead adopt OOD settings including RoboCasa365, LIBERO-Plus, EBench, RoboTwin-Clean2Rand, RoboTwin-IF, and RoboTwin-XE. Qwen-RobotManip substantially outperforms prior state-of-the-art models, including $π$0.5, across all OOD settings, ranks 1st in RoboChallenge with a 20% relative improvement, and is validated on real-robot platforms including AgileX ALOHA, Franka, UR, and ARX.
