Control-Aware Command Generation for Asynchronous Control and Action Inference with Vision-Based Policies towards Fast Execution

Control-Aware Command Generation for Asynchronous Control and Action Inference with Vision-Based Policies towards Fast Execution

Summary

This paper introduces an asynchronous inference and control framework that enables fast task execution while maintaining smooth and stable robot motions without modifying the underlying policy learning process. By formulating the generation of continuous target positions from discontinuous model predictions as a tracking control problem, the method makes asynchronous inference practical for real robots. The approach further accelerates execution through adaptive action skipping based on the variance of predicted positions. Experiments with Action Chunking Transformer and OpenVLA-OFT on a bimanual robot demonstrate substantial speedups while preserving high task success rates.

Editorial context

The authors propose a control-aware command generation framework that achieves faster execution on bimanual robots by treating asynchronous inference as a tracking control problem and using adaptive action skipping, with results reported for Action Chunking Transformer and OpenVLA-OFT.

arXiv:2611.11089v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-based control policies, including vision-language-action models, have enabled robots to perform increasingly complex tasks. However, their execution speed is often limited by the high computational cost of action inference. In this work, we investigate what can be achieved at the control level without modifying the underlying policy learning process. We intro
