Guide, Think, Act: Interactive Embodied Reasoning in Vision-Language-Action Models

The paper introduces GTA‑VLA, an interactive Vision‑Language‑Action framework that lets users guide robot policies with explicit visual cues such as affordance points, boxes, and traces. Unlike traditional direct sense‑to‑act models, GTA‑VLA incorporates a spatial‑visual Chain‑of‑Thought that blends human guidance with internal task planning, and couples this reasoning module with a lightweight reactive action head for efficient execution. Experiments on the SimplerEnv WidowX benchmark show a state‑of‑the‑art 81.2 % success rate, and the framework significantly improves task success under out‑of‑domain visual shifts and spatial ambiguities, demonstrating the benefit of interactive reasoning for failure recovery in embodied control.

Unified Embodied VLM Reasoning with Robotic Action via Autoregressive Discretized Pre-training

arXiv:2512. 24125v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: General-purpose robotic systems operating in open-world environments must achieve both broad generalization and high-precision action execution, a combination that remains challenging for existing Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models.
