WAVE-0: Bridging VLA Policies and WAMs with Lightweight Latent Future Prediction
Vision-language-action (VLA) policies excel at generalist robotic manipulation but generate actions without explicitly modeling their environmental consequences. World action models (WAMs) incorporate future prediction, yet most rely on costly video generation, while latent alternatives either use predicted futures onl...
