[SemanticVLA](https://github.com/Fei-Ni/SemanticVLA_Offcial) finetuned on the [LIBERO](https://github.com/Lifelong-Robot-Learning/LIBERO) benchmark. The unified OXE LAM is used as the latent-action tokenizer, and the trace + latent-action auxiliary heads are supervised in the VLM's language stream.

## Headline result

| Suite | Success rate |
|---|---:|
| `libero_spatial` | 0.988 |
| `libero_object`  | 0.996 |
| `libero_goal`    | 0.974 |
| `libero_10`      | 0.970 |
| **4-suite mean** | **0.982** |

## Architecture

| Component | Choice |
|---|---|
| VLM backbone | Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct |
| Action head | DiT-B (flow matching) |
| LAM tokenizer | [`SemanticVLA-LAM`](https://huggingface.co/spikefly/SemanticVLA-LAM) (unified OXE LAM) |
| Semantic supervision | Trace + latent action tokens predicted in the VLM's language stream; action decoder unmodified |
| Latent vocabulary size | 32 |
| Latent tokens per sample | 4 |
| Action horizon | 8 |

## Files

├── README.md

```

## How to load

```python
from semanticvla.model.framework.base_framework import baseframework

policy = baseframework.from_pretrained("pytorch_model.pt")
policy.eval()
```

`baseframework.from_pretrained()` walks two directory levels up from the checkpoint file to locate `config.yaml` and `dataset_statistics.json`. The released layout follows this convention.

To run a full LIBERO evaluation, see [`examples/LIBERO/`](https://github.com/Fei-Ni/SemanticVLA_Offcial/tree/main/examples/LIBERO) in the code repo.
