PCM uses success-failure action variance to probabilistically select and mask chunks for gradient updates in GRPO, matching standard success rates with 2.38x wall-clock speedup and 60% lower memory on LIBERO benchmarks.
PhySe-RPO enables diffusion-based surgical smoke removal by converting restoration into a stochastic policy optimized with physics consistency and CLIP semantic rewards under limited supervision.
Success Visitation Matching uses a discriminator to turn sparse outcome rewards into dense process rewards by matching visitations of successful episodes, provably preserving the optimal policy and speeding up robotic RL finetuning.
Agentic-VLA enables efficient online adaptation of VLA models, delivering +12.3% on long-horizon tasks, +28.5% in 1-shot learning, and 2.4x faster convergence on LIBERO through three new components.
Veo-3 video predictions enable approximate task-level robot trajectories in zero-shot settings but require hierarchical integration with low-level VLA policies for reliable manipulation performance.
LifeLong-RFT applies chunking-level on-policy reinforcement learning with Quantized Action Consistency Reward, Continuous Trajectory Alignment Reward, and Format Compliance Reward to fine-tune VLA models, achieving a 22% average success rate gain over supervised fine-tuning on the LIBERO benchmark's
TwinRL expands RL exploration via digital twin reconstruction and twin RL warm-up to guide real-world learning, reaching near-100% success with 20 minutes of on-robot time across four tasks.
RECAP enables a generalist VLA to self-improve via advantage-conditioned RL on mixed real-world data, more than doubling throughput and halving failure rates on hard manipulation tasks.
A controllable world model trained on the DROID dataset generates consistent multi-view robot trajectories for over 20 seconds and improves generalist policy success rates by 44.7% via imagined trajectory fine-tuning.
SimpleVLA-RL applies tailored reinforcement learning to VLA models, reaching SoTA on LIBERO, outperforming π₀ on RoboTwin, and surpassing SFT in real-world tasks while reducing data needs and identifying a 'pushcut' phenomenon.
VLA-RL applies online RL to pretrained VLAs, yielding a 4.5% gain over strong baselines on 40 LIBERO manipulation tasks and matching commercial models like π₀-FAST.
DexVLA combines a scaled diffusion action expert with embodiment curriculum learning to achieve better generalization and performance than prior VLA models on diverse robot hardware and long-horizon tasks.
Video Prediction Policy conditions robot action learning on future-frame predictions inside fine-tuned video diffusion models, yielding 18.6% relative gains on Calvin ABC-D and 31.6% higher real-world success rates.
AllDayNav encodes scene dynamics into a large model's parameters via RL and a multimodal memory, achieving near-100% success rates in lifelong navigation and outperforming map-based and VLM baselines.
DyGRO-VLA is a two-stage optimization framework for cross-task scaling of Vision-Language-Action models via dynamic grouped residual optimization in RL.
Degradation-Driven Prompting improves VLM accuracy on deceptive visual tasks by downsampling inputs and routing them through classification, external visual tools, and a critic.
VGAS uses best-of-N selection with a geometrically grounded critic and explicit regularization to improve success rates of few-shot VLA policies under limited data and distribution shifts.
Reflective Self-Adaptation combines failure-reflective reinforcement learning with success-guided imitation learning to enable faster and more reliable task adaptation for pre-trained Vision-Language-Action models.
