arXiv:2606.05533v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing robot planning systems rely on appearance-based reasoning, where visual observations are encoded into latent spaces organized around object appearances (e.g., recognizing a "cart" based on how it looks). However, planning requires reasoning about task-relevant functionalities of objects (e.g., whether an object is "movable"), which appearance-based latent spaces do not capture. As a result, existing approaches struggle to generalize to novel robot-object interactions. We address this limited generalizability through affordance reasoning,
