## 📖 Abstract

We introduce **Hy-Embodied-0.5-VLA (Hy-VLA)** — an end-to-end Vision-Language-Action system that spans the full robot learning stack: data collection, model design, pre-training, supervised fine-tuning, RL post-training, and real-world deployment. Built on the [Hy-Embodied-0.5](https://github.com/Tencent-Hunyuan/HY-Embodied) MoT backbone, Hy-VLA integrates a flow-matching action expert, a compact memory encoder for multi-frame history, and a delta-chunk action representation decoupled from embodiment-specific kinematics.

Powered by **10,000+ hours** of high-fidelity UMI demonstrations collected via a custom fingertip interface with optical motion-capture, Hy-VLA achieves state-of-the-art results on the RoboTwin 2.0 benchmark (**90.9% / 90.1%** on Clean / Randomized) and demonstrates robust cross-embodiment transfer across four real-world robot platforms. Paired with [FlowPRO](https://wuyeyexvnainai.github.io/flowpro/) preference optimization and an asynchronous inference framework, Hy-VLA establishes a scalable paradigm for continuous dexterous manipulation.


## Overview

Hy-VLA-UMI is the **pre-trained** checkpoint of Hy-Embodied-0.5-VLA (Hy-VLA), an end-to-end Vision-Language-Action system built on the Hy-Embodied-0.5 MoT backbone. Powered by **10,000+ hours** of high-fidelity UMI demonstrations collected via a custom fingertip interface with optical motion-capture, this checkpoint serves as a **generalist starting point** for downstream fine-tuning on target embodiments.

## Architecture

- **VLM Backbone**: Hy-Embodied-0.5 MoT
- **Action Expert**: 370M-parameter dual-tower flow-matching transformer (hidden=1024, intermediate=2048)
- **Video Encoder**: Single-frame mode (K=1) during pre-training; memory encoder is activated during SFT
- **Action Representation**: Relative-to-first-frame delta EEF chunk (10-dim per arm: xyz + rot6d + gripper)
- **Action Horizon**: H=50 at 10 Hz

## Training

| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Data | Full 10K-hour UMI corpus (~1M episodes, 70+ tasks) |
| Initialization | VLM: `tencent/HY-Embodied-0.5`; Action Expert: random |
| Objective | Conditional flow matching (no co-training) |
| Steps | 200K |
| Global batch size | 1,024 |
| Learning rate | 5e-5 (linear warmup 1K → decay to 5e-6 over 160K → constant 40K) |
| Optimizer | AdamW, bfloat16 mixed precision |
| Hardware | 64 GPUs (8 nodes × 8) |

## Usage

### Basic Loading

```python
import torch
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
from hy_vla import HyVLA, HyVLAConfig

ckpt = snapshot_download("tencent/Hy-Embodied-0.5-VLA-UMI")

config = HyVLAConfig.from_pretrained(ckpt)
policy = HyVLA.from_pretrained(ckpt, config=config)
policy.enable_video_encoder_if_needed()  # K=1 in pretrain; call this before fine-tuning with K>1
policy = policy.to(device="cuda", dtype=torch.bfloat16).eval()

# (B, K, C, H, W); K=1 history slot (pre-trained mode)
img = torch.zeros(1, 1, 3, 224, 224, device="cuda", dtype=torch.bfloat16)
# Normalized dual-arm EEF: [xyz(3) + rot6d(6) + gripper(1)] * 2
state = torch.zeros((1, config.max_state_dim), device="cuda", dtype=torch.bfloat16)
batch = {
    "observation.images.top_head":   img,
    "observation.images.hand_left":  img,
    "observation.images.hand_right": img,
    "observation.state": state,
    "task": ["pick up the bottle"],
}

with torch.no_grad():
    actions = policy.forward_evaluate(batch)["pred"]
    actions = actions[..., : config.action_feature.shape[0]]
print(actions.shape)
```

### Fine-Tuning

This model is designed to be fine-tuned. See the main [README](https://github.com/Tencent-Hunyuan/Hy-Embodied-0.5-VLA/blob/main/README.md) for the SFT recipe:

```bash
# Fine-tune on RoboTwin 2.0
export CHIEF_IP=<chief-ip> INDEX=0
bash scripts/train_robotwin_umi.sh
```

## Normalization Statistics

The checkpoint includes pre-computed `norm_stats.pkl` derived from the full UMI pre-training corpus. If you are fine-tuning on a new dataset with substantially different statistics, you can regenerate them:

```bash
python scripts/compute_norm_lance.py \
    --lance-source /path/to/your/data \
    --output norm_stats.pkl
```
