MobileWAM: Bridging World Action Models to Mobile Manipulation with Chain-of-Foresight

- 用分层注意力融合预训练视频模型与轻量动作专家,实现端到端控制。
- 在ManiSkill-HAB上超越现有最先进方法,实机验证展现强泛化能力。
- 适合研究移动机器人、具身智能及多模态动作建模的开发者参考。
基于视频生成主干的世界动作模型(WAM)是机器人学习的新范式,但目前仅限于桌面级操作。移动操纵需在场景尺度动态下同步完成移动与全身操作,而现有方法仍依赖无视动态的视觉编码器和手工协调。本文提出MobileWAM,一种混合变换器架构,通过分层联合注意力融合预训练视频扩散变换器与轻量动作专家,将互联网规模的动作先验转化为全身控制。为应对移动与操作的异构动态,动作专家的每层变为共享、移动与操作三类专家的混合,由动作标记中的运动意图软路由。为增强监督,提出链式预见(Chain-of-Foresight, CoF):中间表示依次预测一系列未来潜在块,每步依赖前序结果。CoF 与解耦的视频-动作去噪方案天然适配。部署时,WAM仅作当前帧编码器;预见链与视频生成仅在训练中使用,推理时丢弃,仅保留策略级开销。MobileWAM 在 ManiSkill-HAB 上超越现有最优方法,并在真实 ARX Lift2 移动机械臂上跨任务微调,表现出优异泛化能力。代码即将开源。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
World action models (WAMs) built on video generation backbones are a rising recipe for robot learning, yet remain confined to tabletop manipulation. Mobile manipulation demands simultaneous locomotion and whole-body manipulation amid scene-scale dynamics, yet is still dominated by dynamics-blind visual encoders with hand-crafted coordination. We bridge this gap with MobileWAM, a mixture-of-transformers architecture that fuses a pretrained video diffusion transformer with a lightweight action expert through layerwise joint attention, translating internet-scale motion priors into whole-body control. To reconcile the heterogeneous dynamics of moving and manipulating, each feed-forward layer of the action expert becomes a three-expert mixture of shared, locomotion, and manipulation experts, softly routed by the motion intent in the action tokens. To densify supervision, we further propose Chain-of-Foresight (CoF): intermediate representations sequentially predict a chain of future latent chunks, each step conditioned on its predecessor. CoF pairs naturally with our decoupled video--action denoising scheme. At deployment, the WAM serves as a pure current-frame encoder; foresight acts only through gradients, so at inference the foresight chain and video generation are discarded, leaving only policy-level cost. MobileWAM surpasses state-of-the-art mobile manipulation policies on ManiSkill-HAB and fine-tunes to a real ARX Lift2 mobile manipulator across diverse tasks with strong generalization. Code will be released soon.
