Soft RTC uses partially denoised states for overlap tokens and token-wise blending to reduce action delta and jerk by ~9% versus hard RTC while matching solve rates on Kinetix levels.
EvoScene-VLA maintains an action-updated scene prior across control chunks in VLA policies, raising success rates on RoboTwin tasks from 87.2% to 89.1% fixed and 86.1% to 88.5% randomized while outperforming baselines on a real robot.
