arXiv:2607. 02092v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Flow-matching vision-language-action policies generate robot action chunks through an iterative transport process, creating an opportunity for test-time guidance without retraining the base policy.

arXiv:2607. 18236v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pretrained dense visual features from Vision Transformers (ViTs) are powerful yet have been underutilized in robot learning.

arXiv:2606. 29892v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has become indispensable for pushing Vision-Language-Action Models (VLAs) beyond static imitation learning.

arXiv:2604. 13733v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) enables high-frequency, closed-loop control for robotic manipulation, but scaling to long-horizon tasks with sparse or imperfect rewards remains difficult due to inefficient exploration and poor credit assignment.

arXiv:2607. 04517v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models are commonly treated as end-to-end action policies conditioned on natural-language task descriptions.

arXiv:2607. 04171v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Tiny Vision-Language-Action models are appealing for real-time robotic control, but reducing model scale often weakens two capabilities essential for manipulation: task-conditioned spatial grounding and coherent action generation.
