arXiv:2608. 04428v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) models have emerged as a key component in embodied AI.
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models promise to bring end-to-end reasoning to autonomous driving, but their computational cost remains far too high for real-time control. The core challenge is structural: VLA inference is not a single bottleneck but a cascade of four.

arXiv:2607. 24148v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated strong potential for embodied AI, yet their high inference latency on GPUs limits real-time deployment.
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated strong potential for embodied AI, yet their high inference latency on GPUs limits real-time deployment. Existing accelerators, such as Dadu-Corki, improve efficiency but treat VLA models as full-precision workloads, leaving substantial redundancy in both memory and computation underexploited.
arXiv:2608. 15502v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have emerged as a promising foundation for Embodied AI, but their high inference cost poses significant challenges for deployment in robotic systems.
Vision-language-action (VLA) models commonly adopt an LLM-centric $V \to L \to A$ pathway, where visual observations are projected into the representation space of a large language model before being decoded into robot actions. Although effective, this design incurs substantial computation and memory overhead at every policy invocation.

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:2605. 28803v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models unify perception, reasoning, and control in a single policy, but their multi-billion-parameter backbones and diffusion-based action heads make on-device deployment prohibitively expensive.
arXiv:2607. 14557v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion Multimodal Large Language Models (DMLLMs) are highly effective for multimodal reasoning, yet their inference efficiency is significantly hindered by fixed-length generation constraints.
