+ ## Description
16
+
17
+ SoMA is a Gaussian splat neural simulator that models deformable object dynamics from real-world robot manipulation, enabling action-conditioned, stable long-horizon simulation with high-fidelity, multi-view–consistent rendering. By coupling deformable dynamics, environmental forces, and robot joint actions in a unified latent neural space, SoMA improves resimulation accuracy and generalization on real-world robot manipulation by 20%, enabling stable simulation of complex tasks such as long-horizon cloth folding.
