arXiv:2606. 08962v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World Action Models (WAMs) generalize better than standard Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies to novel motions and environments, because a video-modeling objective lets them learn from abundant unlabeled video rather than scarce labeled robot demonstrations.

StreamPI introduces a streaming multimodal temporal modeling framework that enhances Vision‑Language‑Action models by adding temporal reasoning without extra parameters. It anchors each visual observation and language instruction pair as a temporal unit, using bidirectional attention for cross‑modal fusion and causal attention for autoregressive streaming inference. The method employs random‑interval streaming training to improve robustness and leverages the LLM backbone’s length extrapolation to inherit pretrained weights, achieving superior performance over pi0.5 on real‑robot and simulation tasks.
The paper introduces rMuscle, a real‑time Vision‑Language‑Action inference framework that mimics human muscle memory to accelerate robotic decision making. By exploiting repeated task similarity, rMuscle uses a dual‑phase cache: a Context Cache reuses visual‑token outputs and an Action Cache reuses neuron activation patterns, reducing computation and weight accesses. Experiments on RTX 4090 and Jetson Thor show 1.29–1.42× speedups on LIBERO, RoboTwin, and physical manipulation tasks while preserving success rates on real robots.
