DriftingVLA: 次元別時間ドリフトによるネイティブ一段階視覚言語行動生成
DriftingVLA: Native One-Step Vision-Language-Action Generation via Per-Dimension Temporal Drifting
フローベースのVLAモデルの多段階推論による遅延を解消するため、分布ドリフト目的関数を用いてノイズから行動チャンクへの直接マッピングを学習する一段階VLAモデルを提案した。行動次元ごとに時間的ドリフトを適用することで、制御性能を保ちつつ3.36倍の高速化を実現した。

Conventional flow-based vision-language-action (VLA) models support expressive continuous action generation but rely on multi-step refinement to produce each action chunk, increasing latency in online robot control. To address this issue, we introduce DriftingVLA, a native one-step VLA that generates a complete action chunk with a single action-expert forward pass. Rather than learning a flow field that requires iterative integration at inference, DriftingVLA uses a distribution-drifting objective to learn a direct noise-to-action-chunk mapping for one-step deployment. Since robot action dimensions carry distinct control semantics and distributional characteristics, we further introduce Per-Dimension Temporal Drifting (PDTD). PDTD treats the complete temporal trajectory of each action dimension as a separate drifting unit, enabling finer-grained modeling and shaping of dimension-specific action distributions. This per-dimension decomposition applies only to the training objective; the shared VLA model still generates the complete action chunk jointly, thereby preserving cross-dimensional dependencies. DriftingVLA achieves 98.32% success on LIBERO, 81.09% on RoboTwin 2.0, and 77.67% across six real-world single- and dual-arm tasks, outperforming the evaluated multi-step flow policy and one-step VLA baselines. Native one-step deployment also delivers a 3.36-fold speedup in action-chunk generation, eliminating iterative refinement without sacrificing control performance.
