WAM-Cache: Staleness-Bounded KV Reuse for Efficient World Action Models

WAM-Cache: Staleness-Bounded KV Reuse for Efficient World Action Models

Summary

WAM-Cache is a training-free framework that retains layerwise key-value representations across chunks and recomputes only a sparse refresh set of tokens. It combines cross-attention from the action expert with visual latent surprise and a strict age bound to suppress compounding error. The method reduces video DiT prefill FLOPs by 32-42% across multiple benchmarks while maintaining high action accuracy.

ownstream action accuracy is instead governed by where the action expert attends, not by what moved. WAM-Cache therefore selects the refresh set by uniting the action expert's cross-attention with visual latent surprise, complemented by a strict age bound that suppresses compounding error. On Fast-WAM, WAM-Cache cuts video DiT prefill FLOPs by 32-42% across RoboTwin 2.0, LIBERO, and real-world experiments, while stay
