SnapFlow: One-Step Action Generation for Flow-Matching VLAs via Progressive Self-Distillation

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2604.05656v1 Announce Type: cross Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models based on flow matching -- such as pi0, pi0.5, and SmolVLA -- achieve state-of-the-art generalist robotic manipulation, yet their iterative denoising, typically 10 ODE steps,
