Title: Closed-Loop Neural Activation Control in Vision-Language-Action Models

Abstract:
arXiv:2606.00269v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models can be steered at test time by intervening on semantically meaningful internal directions, but existing methods use a fixed steering coefficient, effectively operating in open loop. This is poorly suited to embodied control, where task state and concept error evolve over time, often causing overcorrection, oscillation, and reduced task success, especially for temporal behaviors such as speed and smoothness.
