Speedup Patch: Learning a Plug-and-Play Policy to Accelerate Embodied Manipulation

Zhichao Wu, Junyin Ye, Zhilong Zhang +6

While current embodied policies exhibit remarkable manipulation skills, their execution remains unsatisfactorily slow as they inherit the tardy pacing of human demonstrations. Exis…

Towards Practical World Model-based Reinforcement Learning for Vision-Language-Action Models

Zhilong Zhang, Haoxiang Ren, Yihao Sun +6

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models show strong generalization for robotic control, but finetuning them with reinforcement learning (RL) is constrained by the high cost and safety…

Controlling Large Language Model with Latent Actions

Chengxing Jia, Ziniu Li, Pengyuan Wang +4

Adapting Large Language Models (LLMs) to downstream tasks using Reinforcement Learning (RL) has proven to be an effective approach. However, LLMs do not inherently define the struc…
