HybridFlow is a generative policy for robotic manipulation that uses a three‑stage inference procedure requiring only two network function evaluations (2‑NFE). The policy first generates a coarse action trajectory with a Global Jump based on MeanFlow, then refines the state using a parameter‑free ReNoise interpolation, and finally performs a Local Refine to query the instantaneous‑velocity limit. Experiments on RoboMimic and five real‑robot settings show that HybridFlow achieves high success rates and improves task performance over a 16‑step Diffusion Policy while reducing action‑generation latency by roughly eightfold.

FlowCorrect is a modular interactive imitation learning method that allows real‑time adaptation of generative flow‑matching manipulation policies using sparse, relative human corrections. During task execution, a human provides brief corrective pose nudges through a lightweight VR interface, and FlowCorrect locally adapts the policy without retraining the backbone, maintaining performance on previously learned scenarios. Experiments on a real‑world robot across four tabletop tasks show that, with a low correction budget, FlowCorrect achieves an 80% success rate on previously failed cases while preserving performance on solved scenarios.
