Dynin-Robotics: Omnimodal Unified Diffusion Vision-Language-Action Model

Counts differ because each database indexes a different set of publications. We treat OpenAlex as the canonical count; Google Scholar is not shown (no API, and crawling it violates its ToS).

Visual goal and dynamics prediction can provide language-conditioned robot policies with both a target outcome and a representation of action-dependent scene changes. We bring these predictions into action generation and selection through a shared trajectory model. Dynin-Robotics implements this formulation on Dynin-Omni, an omnimodal masked-diffusion backbone, representing language, visual observations, goals, and actions as discrete tokens. By varying conditioning and target spans, the same model learns action prediction, action-conditioned next-observation prediction, terminal goal-state prediction, and trajectory-to-instruction reconstruction. These interfaces support test-time scaling through goal prediction, action-candidate evaluation, and joint refinement of action and future-state predictions. We continually pretrain the model on approximately 1.33 million trajectories from 48 Open X-Embodiment datasets and adapt it separately to downstream domains. On two VLABench tasks, robot pretraining improves adaptation within a fixed Stage-2 step budget, and the full objective mixture improves shifted-instruction success over Policy-only post-training under the same coupled decoder. Combining goal guidance with joint action-next-state denoising further improves shifted-instruction success over action-only decoding; the benefit depends on how the predictions are composed. Dynin-Robotics achieves competitive performance on LIBERO and zero-shot LIBERO-Plus, together with a 78.4% average success rate across four manipulation conditions on a Franka Research 3 robot. An optimized block-parallel implementation accelerates model-side action decoding by up to 29.2x relative to the base implementation under the reported profiling setup. These results support shared trajectory modeling as a common interface for learning complementary robot objectives and composing their predictions during control.
