GS-VLA: Plug-and-Play Viewpoint Canonicalization for Frozen VLA Policies via Gaussian Splatting
Read the original on arXiv AI →GS‑VLA introduces a lightweight, plug‑and‑play framework that uses a 4 M‑parameter 3D‑Gaussian canonicalizer to adapt frozen Vision‑Language‑Action (VLA) policies to viewpoint shifts without retraining the policy. By treating viewpoint changes as a localized novel‑view synthesis problem under a locality assumption, the method normalizes observations through a scene‑ and policy‑independent disocclusion task. Experiments on the LIBERO benchmark demonstrate that GS‑VLA recovers a large portion of performance lost due to camera displacement, improving results across different policy architectures, unseen task suites, and perturbation scales. whyItMatters":"The approach offers a computationally efficient alternative to costly fine‑tuning or generative augmentation, enabling robust VLA deployment in real‑world settings where camera configurations may vary."
