Researchers have developed a new guidance method called POTR (Prior-Corrected Orthogonal Trust-Region) to improve the smoothness of action chunking in flow-matching robot policies. This method addresses discontinuities at chunk boundaries by incorporating a data-prior scale for stronger intermediate-time correction and by constraining the guidance vector's perpendicular component within a trust region. Experiments on the LIBERO benchmark demonstrated that POTR enhances success rates and significantly reduces undesirable action transitions like discontinuity, acceleration, and jerk compared to existing RTC guidance.
