  ## Dataset Description
16
 
17
+ This dataset is associated with the paper [VITA: Vision-to-Action Flow Matching Policy](https://huggingface.co/papers/2507.13231). VITA introduces a noise-free and conditioning-free policy learning framework that directly maps visual representations to latent actions using flow matching. This dataset comprises the data used for evaluating VITA on 8 simulation and 2 real-world tasks from ALOHA and Robomimic.

+ ## Sample Usage
165
 
166
+ The datasets are designed to be used with the VITA codebase, which extends [LeRobot](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot) for optimized preprocessing and training.
167
+
168
+ First, set up the VITA environment as described in the [Github repository](https://github.com/ucd-dare/VITA):
169
+ ```bash
170
+ git clone git@github.com:ucd-dare/VITA.git
171
+ cd VITA
172
+ conda create --name vita python==3.10
173
+ conda activate vita
174
+ conda install cmake
175
+ pip install -e .
176
+ pip install -r requirements.txt
177
+ # Install LeRobot dependencies
178
+ cd lerobot
179
+ pip install -e .
180
+ # Install ffmpeg for dataset processing
181
+ conda install -c conda-forge ffmpeg
182
+ ```
183
+
184
+ Set the dataset storage path:
185
+ ```bash
186
+ echo 'export FLARE_DATASETS_DIR=<PATH_TO_VITA>/gym-av-aloha/outputs' >> ~/.bashrc
187
+ # Reload bashrc
188
+ source ~/.bashrc
189
+ conda activate vita
190
+ ```
191
 
192
+ You can list available datasets (hosted on Hugging Face) using the conversion script:
193
+ ```bash
194
+ cd gym-av-aloha/scripts
195
+ python convert.py --ls
196
+ ```
197
+
198
+ To convert a Hugging Face dataset to the optimized offline Zarr format for faster training (this may take >10 minutes), for example:
199
+ ```bash
200
+ python convert.py -r iantc104/av_aloha_sim_hook_package
201
+ ```
202
+ Converted datasets will be stored in the path specified by `FLARE_DATASETS_DIR`.
203
+
204
+ To train a policy using a task (e.g., `hook_package`) with the VITA framework:
205
+ ```bash
206
+ python flare/train.py policy=vita task=hook_package session=test
207
+ ```
