Cognitive Action Reasoning for Proactive Robots from Human-Centered Multimodal Observations

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 20, 2026 · UTC

Robots operating in human-centered environments are typically designed to execute explicit instructions, and most robot-learning datasets likewise pair observations with task instructions or low-level actions. Although recent work has begun to explore proactive embodied assistance, existing resources target different settings and action levels, leaving real-world human-centered multimodal decision-making underexplored. We formulate this problem as \textit{Proactive Robot Action Reasoning} (\textit{ProRobo}), an upstream cognitive decision problem in which a robot must determine which action to
