Vision-Predictor-Action：神経記号的JEPA予測器による効率的な身体性AIに向けて

原文アブストラクト

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models commonly generate robot actions token by token through Large Language Model (LLM) decoders, causing inference latency to grow with action sequence length and limiting closed-loop control frequency. We present Goal-Conditioned Vision-Predictor-Action (VPA), which replaces autoregressive decoders with a lightweight latent control loop. A shared vision encoder and a frozen text encoder embed observations, goal images, and instructions; a neuro-symbolic selector chooses a discrete skill; a Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture (JEPA) predictor forecasts the next latent state; and a flow-matching solver generates an entire action chunk in a few integration steps, so that sequential network evaluations per decision step do not depend on the action horizon. We analyze inference complexity, regularization against representation collapse, and conditions under which latent sub-goal thresholding limits error accumulation across task phases. As an initial proof of concept, we evaluated VPA on the LIBERO-10 suite. The trainable model has under 20M parameters (checkpoint under 75 MB, excluding a frozen 63.4M-parameter CLIP text encoder); a decision step of a single-camera reference configuration takes 10-14 ms on an Apple M4; and trained only on LIBERO-10 demonstrations in under three hours on a single GPU, a two-camera policy succeeded in 40.0% of 200 evaluation episodes. These preliminary results from a single training run suggest the approach is workable.
