视觉语言动作(VLA)模型通过将控制与视觉语言模型的语义推理结合,为通用机器人操作建立了强大范式。现有架构通常通过扩散或流过程连续建模动作,或通过自回归生成/并行解码离散建模。近期出现的离散扩散VLA(dVLA)通过掩码生成建模,将视觉、语言和动作统一到单一离散标记空间。尽管融合了迭代优化与统一表示,其训练仍局限于监督微调(SFT),未探索强化学习(RL)进一步优化策略的潜力。核心挑战在于dVLA最终动作的边际概率不可计算。为此,我们提出dVLA-RL,将学习目标从边际动作概率转向采样生成路径的联合概率。具体地,将去噪过程建模为马尔可夫决策过程(MDP),数学上将路径概率表示为各步转移的乘积。该轨迹级目标提供统一框架,天然支持可变去噪步数。利用此内在灵活性,我们引入统一步数调度方法,针对任务复杂度动态调整去噪步数,以最大化成功率与计算效率。大量实验表明,该方法在LIBERO上实现99.7%的成功率;在RoboTwin 2.0上较SFT基线提升30.6%,性能媲美强世界-动作模型基线。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have established a powerful paradigm for generalist robotic manipulation by grounding control into the semantic reasoning of VLMs. Prevailing architectures typically model actions continuously via diffusion or flow processes, or discretely through either autoregressive generation or parallel decoding. Recently, Discrete Diffusion VLAs (dVLAs) have emerged as a distinct alternative, unifying vision, language, and action into a single discrete token space via masked generative modeling. While combining iterative refinement with unified representations, its training has thus far been restricted to Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT), leaving the potential of Reinforcement Learning (RL) for further policy refinement largely unexplored. A fundamental challenge in RL for dVLAs is that the marginal probability of the final action generated by dVLAs remains intractable. To solve this problem, we propose \textbf{dVLA-RL}, shifting the learning objective from the marginal action probability to the joint probability of the sampled generation path. Specifically, by modeling the denoising process as a Markov Decision Process (MDP), we mathematically formulate this path probability as a product of step-wise transitions. This trajectory-level objective provides a unified formulation that natively accommodates variable denoising steps. Leveraging this intrinsic fexibility, we introduce a unified step scheduling approach for complex multi-task learning, tailoring denoising steps to specific task complexities to maximize both success rates and computational effciency. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that our approach achieves a success rate of \textbf{99.7\%} on LIBERO. Furthermore, it establishes strong VLA-based results on RoboTwin 2.0 by delivering a \textbf{30.6\%} improvement over the SFT baseline, remaining competitive with strong World-Action Model baselines.
