On the Sample Efficiency of Inverse Dynamics Models for Semi-Supervised Imitation Learning

arXiv:2602. 02762v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Semi-supervised imitation learning (SSIL) consists in learning a policy from a small dataset of action-labeled trajectories and a much larger dataset of action-free trajectories.

Towards VLA-Dreamer: Refining VLA Behavior Using World Models

The paper proposes a new architecture for Vision‑Language‑Action (VLA) models that improves sample efficiency by training a predictive world model on the vision encoder’s embedding space. It argues that these embeddings are action‑relevant and can be used to predict future states, addressing the lack of an explicit world model in current VLAs. The trained model can also support short‑term planning by sampling actions that lead to desired goal images.
