CoTinyVLA

CoTinyVLA is a compact vision-language-action policy built on the Qwen3.5-0.8B backbone. The full policy has approximately 0.9B parameters.

Model summary

• —Input: 8 third-person frames, 8 wrist-camera frames, 8-D proprioception, and a natural-language instruction
• —Reasoning: one episode-level Plan and one chunk-level Think span
• —Output: an 8-step action chunk with 7 action dimensions per step
• —Training: two epochs on the union of the four LIBERO-Plus suites
• —Final checkpoint step: 102,024

Results

LIBERO-Plus

Standard LIBERO

Files

• —student_state_dict.pt: complete policy state dictionary
• —action_head_config.json: policy and reasoning-token configuration
• —tokenizer and processor files: multimodal preprocessing and added tokens
• —release_info.json: release metadata
• —SHA256SUMS: file-integrity checksums

Usage

This checkpoint uses a custom policy class and is not directly loadable with AutoModel.from_pretrained.

Limitations

• —Evaluation is limited to LIBERO and LIBERO-Plus simulation.
• —Sim-to-real and cross-embodiment transfer have not been evaluated.
• —The current implementation uses synchronous reasoning generation.
• —Physical-robot deployment requires additional safety validation.
