BICPO-VLA: Behavior-Identified Continuation Preference Optimization for Smooth Asynchronous Vision-Language-Action Control

The request-to-handoff gap has three coupled sources: ambiguity about the behavior intended at request time, physical-state drift accumulated during action generation, and residual incompatibility when the new action finally assumes control. BICPO-VLA addresses them in sequence. First, an instruction-aware causal history encoder identifies the behavior supported by the command and current task progress. Second, sequential Haar subspace generation decomposes each action chunk into complementary pairwise scaffold and residual coefficients, enabling two specialized generation stages followed by exact reconstruction. By reducing iterative refinement in the original action space, it shortens the interval over which the robot continues moving before the new chunk becomes available. Finally, BICPO rolls the known outgoing actions to the actual handoff state and applies reference-relative Flow-DPO among behaviorally matched candidates, adapting the generated chunk to the remaining request-to-handoff mismatch without changing its intended behavior.

PBD-AG: Persistent Baseline-Delta Active Graphs with Uncertainty-Aware Inspection for Long-Horizon Service Robots

Long-horizon service robots require persistent world models that can be built autonomously in unseen environments and revised as task-relevant objects change. Existing methods rely on online mapping, which accumulates localization and observation errors, static scene representations that cannot capture persistent object changes, or holistic vision-language predictions that lack verifiable 3D geometric evidence. We present PBD-AG, a persistent baseline-delta active graph framework that decouples robot-verified stable fixtures from revisable dynamic object events. Under our framework, the robot autonomously bootstraps the structural baseline from onboard exploration and inspects discovered fixtures to ground hierarchical object beliefs. PBD-AG maintains reliability-weighted object states over geometry, semantics, identity, existence, and support relations, utilizing a geometric visibility gate to mitigate false deletions under occlusion. Inspection viewpoints are selected by a graph-conditioned policy that balances target coverage, travel cost, collision risk, and redundant observation. Simulation experiments in multiple environments and under controlled dynamic evaluation show higher aggregate coarse-fixture F1 than capability-matched controls, as well as stronger identity continuity and event recall. A qualitative physical-robot demonstration further illustrates integration with onboard sensing, providing a traceable world model for long-horizon robotic perception.
