Outcome-Conditioned End-Effector Geometry Across Vision-Language-Action Policies

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 18, 2026 · UTC

Vision-language-action (VLA) policies solve the same manipulation task through different action interfaces, but task success alone does not establish whether their physical executions agree. We study cross-policy end-effector geometry in 15,000 closed-loop LIBERO rollouts from four policies. The primary clean-condition analysis forms 3,600 configuration-matched, and therefore dependent, policy pairs. Both-success pairs have a median normalized dynamic time warping distance of 0.0120 m versus 0.0380 m when exactly one policy succeeds. This ordering holds in every task, every policy pair, and ni
