arXiv:2608. 15002v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When a robot policy is trained for a new task or dataset, its visual encoder can be frozen and only its action generation module trained, reducing training cost.
arXiv:2608. 14586v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models are becoming a promising paradigm for autonomous driving, but their deployment on existing vehicle platforms remains difficult because they introduce both high inference latency and strong GPU-side resource pressure.
arXiv:2608. 08961v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI training's rising resource intensity is straining electricity supplies and carbon budgets, motivating systematic study of memory-efficient training on constrained hardware.
arXiv:2603. 12478v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal instruction tuning is often compute-inefficient because training budgets are spread across large mixed image-video pools whose utility is highly uneven.
arXiv:2608. 01563v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training and deployed inference often cross export, conversion, and platform-specific runtime boundaries.
AI training's rising resource intensity is straining electricity supplies and carbon budgets, motivating systematic study of memory-efficient training on constrained hardware. We benchmark five gradient optimizers (SGD, Adam, Adagrad, Adadelta, and Conjugate Gradient Descent) under three memory strategies (standard training, gradient checkpointing, and gradient accumulation) across four transformer architectures (ViT, ModernBERT, Llama 3.
arXiv:2608. 14498v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) enable embodied agents to reason and act from visual observations and language instructions.
arXiv:2606. 24780v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Progress in deep learning is, at scale, more a matter of systems engineering than of modelling: the behaviour of a model in training (its throughput, its memory footprint, and the numerical fidelity of the result) is determined less by the architecture itself than by how that architecture is expressed on the hardware.
arXiv:2607. 12659v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have achieved impressive performance on diverse embodied tasks.
arXiv:2606. 08094v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies are typically shipped as Python/PyTorch stacks that assume a workstation-class GPU, a mismatch for the hardware on which robots actually run.
arXiv:2607. 10942v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Physical AI systems, such as autonomous vehicles and intelligent machines, require transformer-based perception models that satisfy stringent edge latency and energy constraints.
arXiv:2607. 14568v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A companion study ran a 35B mixture-of-experts model on a 2011 NVIDIA Tesla C2075 (Fermi, sm_20, 6GB) as a GPU-prefill/CPU-decode hybrid, because the 4-bit model did not fit in device memory (arXiv:2606.
arXiv:2606. 16352v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Computation integrity of remote large language model (LLM) serving can be questionable.
