  • 用统一状态追踪任务进展和动作延续性
  • 在RMBench上达62.8%成功率,四套LIBERO测试集超98%
  • 适合需要长时间连续操作的机器人任务

人类执行长时序操作时,会保留先前动作带来的状态,并持续调整当前动作。现有视觉-语言-动作(VLA)策略在每轮查询中重复规划,仅通过记忆保留长期任务信息或通过动作复用与集成保留短期运动信息,导致跨查询状态传递不完整。我们提出ChainVLA,一个1.2B参数的VLA策略,通过联合可更新的执行状态串联连续查询。进度上下文结合循环工作状态与稀疏事件记忆,传递由观测推导的任务进展;运动尾部将前次预测未执行的延续部分纳入状态构建与动作生成。二者共同作用于解码器,使每次动作时域在最新观测下重生成,确保携带状态引导后续预测而不固定。ChainVLA在RMBench上平均成功率达62.8%,在四个LIBERO套件上达98.8%;若移除运动尾部或进度上下文,成功率分别降至11.2%和3.0%。这些非对称消融结果表明,运动连续性有助于维持用于推断任务进展的观测流。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Humans perform long-horizon manipulation by retaining knowledge of what earlier actions have established while continuously adapting the motion underway. By contrast, action-chunked vision-language-action (VLA) policies repeatedly replan from the current input at each query. Existing methods preserve either long-term task evidence through memory or short-term motion through action reuse and ensembling, leaving the cross-query handoff incomplete. We introduce ChainVLA, a 1.2B-parameter VLA policy that chains successive queries through a joint and revisable execution state. Progress Context combines a recurrent Working State with sparse event memory to carry observation-derived task progress, while Motion Tail feeds the preceding prediction's unexecuted continuation into state construction and action generation. Together, the two components condition a decoder that regenerates each action horizon under the latest observation, allowing the carried state to guide the next prediction without fixing it. ChainVLA reaches 62.8% average success on RMBench and 98.8% across four LIBERO suites, while removing Motion Tail or Progress Context reduces RMBench success to 11.2% and 3.0%, respectively. These asymmetric ablations are consistent with motion continuity helping preserve the observation stream from which task progress is inferred.
