Learning a good action embedding space is fundamental to scalable robot policy learning, yet existing methods treat action latents as task-specific intermediates rather than first-class representations. The resulting latents are unstructured, embodiment-specific, and weakly tied to motion semantics, limiting interpretability, controllability, and transferability across robots. We position the action embedding space itself as a first-class design target, with downstream policy quality emerging from representation quality. Exploiting motion's intrinsic periodicity, we factorize it into a phase manifold that captures cyclic structure via FFT-parametric coefficients, together with a pose branch that conditions the manifold on non-periodic configuration detail. Combined with motion-semantic distillation, this factorized structure yields a cross-embodiment motion manifold that is interpretable and embodiment-agnostic by design. Anchoring multiple humanoid robots to a shared human-pretrained manifold then produces a unified action embedding space across diverse platforms, achieving strong cross-embodiment retrieval and consistent gains on downstream robot tasks.

Text-to-image models are commercially valuable assets often distributed under restrictive licenses, but such licenses are enforceable only when violations can be detected. Existing methods require pre-deployment watermarking or internal model access, which are unavailable in commercial API deployments. We present Compositional Semantic Fingerprinting (CSF), the first black-box method for attributing fine-tuned text-to-image models to protected lineages using only query access. CSF treats models as semantic category generators and probes them with compositional underspecified prompts that remain rare under fine-tuning. This gives IP owners an asymmetric advantage: new prompt compositions can be generated after deployment, while attackers must anticipate and suppress a much broader space of fingerprints. Across 6 model families (FLUX, Kandinsky, SD1.5/2.1/3.0/XL) and 13 fine-tuned variants, our Bayesian attribution framework enables controlled-risk lineage decisions, with all variants satisfying the dominance criterion.

Recent advancements in diffusion models have made fine-tuning text-to-image models for personalization increasingly accessible, but have also raised significant concerns regarding unauthorized data usage and privacy infringement. Current protection methods are limited to passively degrading image quality, failing to achieve stable control. While Targeted Data Protection (TDP) offers a promising paradigm for active redirection toward user-specified target concepts, existing TDP attempts suffer from poor controllability due to snapshot-matching approaches that fail to account for complete learning dynamics. We introduce TAFAP (Trajectory Alignment via Fine-tuning with Adversarial Perturbations), the first method to successfully achieve effective TDP by controlling the entire training trajectory. Unlike snapshot-based methods whose protective influence is easily diluted as training progresses, TAFAP employs trajectory-matching inspired by dataset distillation to enforce persistent, verifiable transformations throughout fine-tuning. We validate our method through extensive experiments, demonstrating the first successful targeted transformation in diffusion models with simultaneous control over both identity and visual patterns. TAFAP significantly outperforms existing TDP attempts, achieving robust redirection toward target concepts while maintaining high image quality. This work enables verifiable safeguards and provides a new framework for controlling and tracing alterations in diffusion model outputs.

Accurately preserving motion while editing a subject remains a core challenge in video editing tasks. Existing methods often face a trade-off between edit and motion fidelity, as they rely on motion representations that are either overfitted to the layout or only implicitly defined. To overcome this limitation, we revisit point-based motion representation. However, identifying meaningful points remains challenging without human input, especially across diverse video scenarios. To address this, we propose a novel motion representation, anchor tokens, that capture the most essential motion patterns by leveraging the rich prior of a video diffusion model. Anchor tokens encode video dynamics compactly through a small number of informative point trajectories and can be flexibly relocated to align with new subjects. This allows our method, Point-to-Point, to generalize across diverse scenarios. Extensive experiments demonstrate that anchor tokens lead to more controllable and semantically aligned video edits, achieving superior performance in terms of edit and motion fidelity.
