Advancing DialNav through Automatic Embodied Dialog Augmentation

arXiv:2606.19948v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: For embodied agents capable of physical interaction, the capability to create and understand dialog is crucial to ensure both safety and effectiveness. While DialNav~\cite{han2025dialnav} provides a framework for holistic evaluation of the dialog--execution loop in photorealistic indoor navigation, its performance remains limited by a critical scarcity of training data (2K episodes). To address this, we propose an automatic generation pipeline, and construct the \textbf{RAINbow} dataset, a large-scale training dataset with 238K episodes for DialN

Why this matters
Why now

The rapid advancement of large language models and embodied AI research necessitates robust data generation techniques to overcome critical training data limitations.

Why it’s important

Improving the ability of embodied agents to understand and generate dialog in real-world environments is crucial for their effective and safe deployment across various applications.

What changes

The introduction of automated data generation pipelines for embodied dialog significantly expands the scale and quality of training data available, accelerating development in this field.
