GeoAAC: Geometry-Based Adaptive Action Chunking from Denoising Trajectories in VLA Policies

Read the original on arXiv AI →

GeoAAC introduces a geometry-based adaptive action chunking technique for Vision‑Language‑Action policies, dynamically adjusting the action horizon based on the reliability of current action predictions. By leveraging the geometric variation in Flow Matching denoising trajectories, GeoAAC constructs a horizon‑wise geometric profile that determines the action horizon during a single generation without extra training. Experiments on LIBERO, LIBERO‑Pro, RoboCasa365, and real‑world manipulation tasks demonstrate consistent gains over fixed‑horizon baselines, achieving up to 8.7 percentage points improvement in simulation and raising real‑world success rates from 53.3% to 74.4%.

Measuring the Stability Assumption Behind Action Chunking

The paper investigates how small action errors evolve when using action chunking in behavioural cloning. By injecting errors at each state and observing their growth under open‑loop (no replanning) and closed‑loop (replanning) regimes, the authors classify states as contracting, expanding, or unresolved. Across twelve manipulation tasks, they find that stable states are rare, error amplification is common, and that short‑horizon fitting can overestimate long‑horizon propagation. Predictors trained on camera and proprioceptive data can recover open‑loop stability but only partially capture closed‑loop dynamics, indicating that standard imitation learning does not reliably produce policies that contract errors when perturbed.
