This research addresses a critical bottleneck in Vision-Language-Action models by introducing KinRT, which uses kinematic clustering during training to enable efficient expert routing based solely on visual observations at inference. By distilling task-specific motion patterns into the observation space, this approach significantly improves performance across diverse robotic platforms without requiring real-time access to action dynamics. The work represents a meaningful advancement in making MoE architectures more practical for generalizable robot learning and manipulation tasks.
Route by Kinematics, Act by Observation: Kinematics-Supervised Expert Routing in MoE-Augmented VLA
arXiv:2607.26807v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While MoE augments VLA via expert specialization, router suffers from ineffective expert routing owing to the kinematic heterogeneity of actions across manipulation tasks and, even worse, the unavailability of the kinematic signals at inference time. In this work, we first observe that most semantically distinct manipulation tasks reduce to multiple kinematic archetypes. Motivated by this finding, we propose Kinematics-supervised explicit routing (KinRT), a new paradigm that shifts from implicit, observation-driven expert routing to explicit, kinematics-guided expert dispatching. Specifically, we perform kinematic clustering on action trajectories into multiple kinematically coherent groups, whose IDs serve as ground truth to supervise the training of the router; at inference time, the router dispatches experts only using visual-language observations, without any reliance on action kinematics. KinRT actually introduces an asymmetric bridging mechanism that distills the task kinematics from the action space in training into the observation space at inference. In addition, to assess KinRT's cross-platform generalization, we build an economical, Do-It-Yourself robot (DIYRobot) platform from scratch using 3D-print technology ($<$ 2,000USD). Extensive experiments demonstrate KinRT's superiority over both dense and MoE-featured VLAs by more than 23.26% on RoboTwin benchmark and 20.27% on our introduced DIYRobot platform. Our code and DIYRobot platform will be open-sourced.
