通过轨迹一致性不确定性预测视觉语言导航失败，提升系统可靠性。

Vision-language navigation agents achieve competitive average success on benchmark tasks, yet failures often arise through predictable trajectory-level breakdowns such as oscillation, stagnation, or inefficient detours. Reliable deployment, therefore, requires uncertainty signals that anticipate emerging failure dynamics during execution rather than reflect only instantaneous action entropy. We introduce \emph{GroundControl}, a trajectory-consistent uncertainty estimator defined as statistical deviation from nominal goal-directed distance-to-goal dynamics aggregated over an episode. GroundControl models distance evolution using a constant-velocity Kalman filter and combines normalized innovation statistics with complementary trajectory features capturing progress, monotonicity, path efficiency, and oscillatory behavior. The resulting uncertainty score reflects geometric and temporal inconsistency in navigation behavior rather than local prediction dispersion. To evaluate uncertainty quality independently of task success, we formalize \emph{Selective Risk--Coverage Navigation (SRCN)}, a protocol that measures how effectively an uncertainty score ranks episodes by failure or inefficiency using risk--coverage curves and AURC / E-AURC summaries. Across five EB-Navigation splits ($N=300$ episodes), trajectory-consistent uncertainty achieves near-oracle ordering under success-based selective risk, with weighted-average $\mathrm{E\text{-}AURC}_{\mathrm{SR}}=0.0024$ for the GPT-4o model, substantially outperforming entropy-, conformal-, and heuristic baselines. Under SPL-based selective evaluation, GroundControl consistently achieves the lowest AURC and E-AURC across models and navigation splits. These results show that modeling deviation from goal-directed dynamics provides an interpretable and robust signal for anticipating navigation failures in vision-language agents.
