Title: StarVLA: A Lego-like Codebase for Vision-Language-Action Model Developing

Abstract:
arXiv:2604.05014v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Building generalist embodied agents requires integrating perception, language understanding, and action, which are core capabilities addressed by Vision-Language-Action (VLA) approaches based on multimodal foundation models, including recent advances in vision-language models and world models. Despite rapid progress, VLA methods remain fragmented across incompatible architectures, codebases, and evaluation protocols, hindering principled comparis
