A4A: Cross-Embodiment Transfer of Action-Oriented 4D Affordances from Human Demonstrations
Yifan Han, Litao Liu, Yuqi Gu +7
Human demonstrations contain rich manipulation knowledge, but it remains unclear what information can be transferred effectively to robot control. Existing affordance representatio…
HELP: Human-Efficient Large-Scale Robot Post-Training with Rollout Segmentation
Shaopeng Zhai, Qi Zhang, Tianyi Zhang +5
When adapting Vision Language Action (VLA) models to downstream tasks, multiple rounds of post-training are often required to progressively address policy weaknesses. In this repor…
Affordance2Action: Task-Conditioned Scene-level Affordance Grounding for Real-Time Manipulation
Litao Liu, Yifan Han, Pengfei Yi +9
Task-conditioned manipulation requires grounding instructions to task-relevant functional parts rather than object categories. This setting is scene-dependent and often one-to-many…
Preserving Foundational Capabilities in Flow-Matching VLAs through Conservative SFT
Tianyi Zhang, Shaopeng Zhai, Haoran Zhang +2
Unconstrained fine-tuning of flow-matching Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models drives dense parameter overwrites, degrading pre-trained capabilities. We present Conservative Superv…
A Vision-Language-Action-Critic Model for Robotic Real-World Reinforcement Learning
Shaopeng Zhai, Qi Zhang, Tianyi Zhang +7
Robotic real-world reinforcement learning (RL) with vision-language-action (VLA) models is bottlenecked by sparse, handcrafted rewards and inefficient exploration. We introduce VLA…
