TemporalFlow-VLA: Learning Physically Grounded Execution History for Long-Horizon Robot Manipulation

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 27, 2026 · UTC

Vision-language-action (VLA) models leverage pretrained vision-language representations for robot control, yet simply adding historical frames does not reliably capture recent physical change. This is especially problematic in multi-stage manipulation, where visually similar states may require different actions depending on prior execution. To address this challenge, we present TemporalFlow-VLA, which learns compact execution history through physically grounded temporal supervision. Using recorded robot states, robot geometry, and calibrated cameras, we construct robot-surface temporal flow as
