让机器人持续学习新任务不丢旧知识,无需存旧数据。

CLARE: Continual Learning for Vision-Language-Action Models via Autonomous Adapter Routing and Expansion

  • 用轻量模块自适应扩展模型,仅在需要时激活新组件。
  • 在LIBERO和5个真实任务上表现优异,无灾难性遗忘。
  • 部署时自动路由适配器,无需任务标签,适合长期运行。

为教会机器人完成复杂操作,通常需在预训练视觉-语言-动作模型(VLA)上微调任务特定数据。但此方法会更新已有表征,不适合现实世界中机器人长期持续适应新任务与环境的同时保留已有知识。现有机器人持续学习方法常需存储历史数据(样本),难以处理长任务序列,或依赖部署时的任务标识。为此,我们提出CLARE,一种通用、参数高效的无样本持续学习框架,适用于VLAs。CLARE在选定的VLA模块中引入轻量级模块化适配器,并根据层间特征相似性,仅在学习新任务时自动扩展模型。部署时,基于自编码器的路由机制动态激活最相关适配器,无需任务标签。在LIBERO基准及五个真实任务上的大量实验表明,CLARE在保持对早期任务高性能的同时显著优于甚至超过基于样本的方法。代码、数据与视频见:https://tum-lsy.github.io/clare。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

To teach robots complex manipulation tasks, a common approach is to fine-tune a pre-trained vision-language-action model (VLA) on task-specific data. However, since this recipe updates existing representations, it is unsuitable for long-term operation in the real world, where robots must continually adapt to new tasks and environments while retaining the knowledge they have already acquired. Existing continual learning methods for robotics commonly require storing previous data (exemplars), struggle with long task sequences, or rely on task identifiers for deployment. To address these limitations, we propose CLARE, a general, parameter-efficient framework for exemplar-free continual learning with VLAs. CLARE introduces lightweight modular adapters into selected VLA modules and autonomously expands the model only where necessary when learning a new task, guided by layer-wise feature similarity. During deployment, an autoencoder-based routing mechanism dynamically activates the most relevant adapters without requiring task labels. Through extensive experiments on the LIBERO benchmark and five real-world tasks, we show that CLARE achieves high performance on new tasks without catastrophic forgetting of earlier tasks, significantly outperforming even exemplar-based methods.
