Disentangled Robot Learning via Separate Forward and Inverse Dynamics Pretraining
Vision-language-action (VLA) models have shown great potential in building generalist robots, but still face a dilemma-misalignment of 2D image forecasting and 3D action prediction. Besides, such a vision-action entangled training manner limits model learning from large-scale, action-free web video data. To address these issues, we propose DeFI, a novel framework that Decouples visual Forward and Inverse dynamics pretraining to exploit respective data sources, wherein video generation and action prediction are disentangled. We introduce the General Forward Dynamics Model (GFDM), pretrained on diverse human and robot videos for future prediction, and the General Inverse Dynamics Model (GIDM), trained via self-supervised learning to infer latent actions from unlabeled video transitions. These models are then integrated into a unified architecture for end-to-end finetuning on downstream tasks. In this manner, GFDM and GIDM first shine separately and then cooperate for mutual benefit. Extensive experiments on CALVIN ABC-D and SimplerEnv demonstrate state-of-the-art performance, with DeFI achieving an average task length of 4.51 for CALVIN, 51.2% success rate on SimplerEnv-Fractal benchmark and 81.3% success rate in real-world deployment, significantly outperforming prior methods.
