Time-Frequency Geometric Cross-Attention for Chunked Vision-Language-Action Models

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 9, 2026 · UTC

Modern vision-language-action (VLA) policies predict a whole chunk of actions: one to two seconds of coordinated motion emitted in a single forward pass. Yet an action chunk is essentially a short multivariate trajectory, but inside these models it is a sequence of generic per-timestep hidden tokens decoded by a linear head. This under-serves two motion structures. First, frequency: a chunk superimposes a smooth global trend and fine corrective motion across time scales, and a single token entangles them. Second, cross-phase geometry: motions of different phases (reach, contact, grasp adjustme
