Reducing Temporal Redundancy for Efficient Vision-Language-Action Inference

Yuzhou Wu, Yuxin Zheng, Muchun Niu, Yishan Yang, Tianhao Liu, hanwen kang, et al.

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models exhibit strong generalization for robotic manipulation, yet their high inference latency limits real time deployment. We identify two primary sources of temporal redundancy in existing VLA pipelines: repeated visual encoding of highly similar c…

Staleness-Learning Rate Scaling Laws for Asynchronous RLHF

Jingwei Song, Haofeng Xu, Jie Xiao, Chengke Bao, Jingwei Shi, Pengbin Feng, et al.

High-throughput RLHF systems often decouple rollout generation from policy optimization, leading to the use of stale rollouts during learner updates. In this work, we study the effect of such staleness in asynchronous GRPO. We make the behavior policy explicit in the GRPO surroga…

OmniCoT: A Benchmark for Global and Multi-Step Panoramic Reasoning

Haocong He, Chenfei Liao, Zichen Wen, Zihao Dongfang, Xu Zheng, Bin Ren, et al.

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated promising spatial reasoning capabilities, while these abilities remain underexplored in the emerging visual modality of panoramic imagery. The full 360°$\times$180° field of view of panoramas essentially supports complex…

OSOR: One-Step Diffusion Inpainting for Effect-Aware Object Removal

Qinming Zhou, Chenxi Sun, Deyang Kong, Junhao He, Xiangheng Tang, Peike Yu, et al.

Real-world object removal is challenging due to two key difficulties: the target object's non-local effects, such as shadows and reflections, which are difficult to model, and the fact that user-provided masks are often inaccurate or incomplete. With billions of parameters and te…

MVPruner: Dynamic Token Pruning for Accelerating Multi-view Vision-Language Models in Autonomous Driving

Nan Yang, Zhanwen Liu, Linfeng Zhang, Shangyu Xie, Yang Wang, Wenzhuo Zhou, et al.

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) improve generalization and interpretability in autonomous driving but suffer from efficiency issues due to long visual token sequences, particularly in standard multi-view settings. Existing token pruning methods employ fixed pruning rate allocation…
