CarryOn: A Dual-Loop Harness for Personalized and Reliable Robot Assistance

While generalist vision-language-action (VLA) models have enabled diverse open-world manipulation, real-world robotic assistance requires two critical capabilities they currently lack: personalization and reliable execution. First, executing an instruction like"make me a sandwich"requires grounding subtask decompositio...

StarVLA-α: Reducing Complexity in Vision-Language-Action Systems

This work introduces StarVLA-$\alpha, a simple yet strong baseline designed to study VLA design choices under controlled conditions that deliberately minimizes architectural and pipeline complexity to reduce experimental confounders and enable systematic analysis.

Beyond Data Scaling: Representation-Centric Continued Pre-training for Vision-Language-Action Models

This work proposes VLAct, a VLA-oriented VLM backbone trained on broad, heterogeneous, multi-embodiment robot data before task-specific fine-tuning, showing that representation-centric continued pre-training can deliver highly competitive performance under a modest compute budget and is an important independent axis of...
