Latent prediction beats reconstruction for tactile pretraining on dexterous manipulation tasks[R]

New paper from Robbyant, with inference code and checkpoints already public. LingBot-Touch is a self-supervised tactile encoder trained JEPA-style: it predicts latent representations of masked contact instead of reconstructing raw sensor signals. The paper tests it against same-size MAE and VAE rec…
