Paper Walkthrough — RoboTok: Mining the Web for Demonstrations That Move Like Yours
A ground-up walkthrough of RoboTok (arXiv:2609.03199), a data engine that pulls manipulation-relevant human demonstrations out of web video. Covers how DTW defines 'similar motion', how that ranking is distilled into an embedding for inner-product search, and what the results do and don't show.
