Behavior Foundation Models (BFMs) give humanoids a promptable policy over a latent behavior space, enabling one single vector to represent a motion to imitate, a pose to reach, or a reward to maximize. Forward-Backward representations successfully produce such spaces, but at the cost of hundreds of GPU-hours for a sing …
Adapting vision-language navigation (VLN) policies to new environments is expensive because every additional route and instruction requires an embodied demonstration. Yet standard observation-to-action training uses only a small fraction of the information already contained in each trajectory. In particular, future obs …
Deploying language-conditioned manipulation without a dedicated GPU requires efficient inference and action chunks that cover the delay between policy queries. We present vla.simd, a CPU inference engine that combines shared SIMD micro-kernels, reusable computation, and target-specific optimization. We relate query lat …
Low-bit vision-language-action inference must reduce observation-to-action latency while preserving robot behavior. We present FoldQuantVLA, a post-training quantization framework that carries a consistent activation representation through calibration, weight rounding, and native integer execution. It combines channel …
