Error- and Prediction-Driven Motor Learning in the Cortico-Cerebellar Loop

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper presents a cerebellum-inspired control framework that addresses robust control under delayed sensory feedback. By combining multiplexed predictive representations with internal feedback, the model jointly encodes kinematic variables and task-relevant error signals, enabling accurate online correction despite delays. Incorporating feedback within the cerebellar loop also accelerates adaptation, reducing learning time by an order of magnitude.

LM-X: Explainable Action Modeling with Progress, Event, and Uncertainty Prediction for Generalist Robot Manipulation

LM‑X is a generalist vision‑language‑action policy that augments action prediction with three online, explicitly supervised signals: return‑to‑go (RTG) for task progress, event‑to‑go (ETG) for the next semantic transition, and heteroscedastic action flow for local reliability. By conditioning action generation on these signals, LM‑X embeds explainability directly into control rather than as a post‑hoc explanation. After a 20‑day pretraining run on 64 GPUs, LM‑X outperforms an action‑only backbone by 16.0 points and a single‑head variant by 10.8 points, and achieves 74.1 % success on 50 RoboTwin2.0 tasks and 68.6 % on seven real‑robot tasks, surpassing the GR00T N1.7 baseline.

Closed-Loop Neural Activation Control in Vision-Language-Action Models

arXiv:2606. 00269v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models can be steered at test time by intervening on semantically meaningful internal directions, but existing methods use a fixed steering coefficient, effectively operating in open loop.
