  ## Dataset Description
17
 
18
+ This dataset provides the robotic trajectories and observations used in 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, enabling faster inference for robotic manipulation tasks. The datasets are built on [LeRobot](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot) Hugging Face formats and optimized into offline `zarr` for faster training.

+ ## Sample Usage
166
+
167
+ This dataset is designed to be used with the VITA codebase, which extends [LeRobot](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot). Below are examples for converting datasets to an optimized `zarr` format and training a VITA policy.
168
+
169
+ First, ensure the VITA repository is cloned and setup, and the `FLARE_DATASETS_DIR` environment variable is set as described in the [VITA GitHub repository](https://github.com/ucd-dare/VITA#%EF%B8%8F-setup).

171
+ ### Dataset Preprocessing
172
+
173
+ To list available datasets:
174
+ ```bash
175
+ cd gym-av-aloha/scripts
176
+ python convert.py --ls
177
+ ```
178
+
179
+ To convert a HuggingFace dataset to an offline `zarr` format (e.g., `av_aloha_sim_hook_package`):
180
+ ```bash
181
+ python convert.py -r iantc104/av_aloha_sim_hook_package
182
+ ```
183
+
184
+ ### Training a VITA Policy
185
+
186
+ Once the dataset is converted, you can train a VITA policy using the `flare` module from the VITA codebase:
187
+ ```bash
188
+ python flare/train.py policy=vita task=hook_package session=test
189
+ ```
190
+ You can override default configurations as needed:
191
+ ```bash
192
+ # Example: Use a specific GPU
193
+ python flare/train.py policy=vita task=hook_package session=test device=cuda:2
194
+
195
+ # Example: Change online validation frequency and episodes
196
+ python flare/train.py policy=vita task=hook_package session=test \
197
+ val.val_online_freq=2000 val.eval_n_episodes=10
198
+
199
+ # Example: Run an ablation
200
+ python flare/train.py policy=vita task=hook_package session=ablate \
201
+ policy.vita.decode_flow_latents=False wandb.notes=ablation
202
+ ```
