arXiv:2608.03483v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing chunk-based Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models execute a fixed number of actions (i.e., execution horizon) before replanning, turning replanning into a task-agnostic periodic schedule that is independent of task progress. As a result, when no replanning boundary falls before a critical manipulation stage, it is executed from a stale chunk rather than a freshly replanned one. To address this limitation, we propose Bernoulli-Continuation Policy (BCP), a lightweight, plug-and-play framework for adaptive horizon execution that keeps the base VLA frozen. Given a fixed-length action chunk, its continuation head decomposes execution-horizon selection into a sequence of continue-or-replan decisions, which imposes an ordinal, prefix-sharing inductive bias over candidate horizons rather than treating them as independent classes. Since the optimal horizon for each chunk is not observable, we train this head with reinforcement learning from trajectory-level outcomes and introduce a Replanning-Efficiency Reward that jointly rewards task success and efficient VLA usage, discouraging the policy from collapsing to unnecessarily short horizons. On RoboTwin 2.0 with LingBot-VLA as the base policy, BCP improves the average success rate by +11.08% on 13 low-success tasks and from 89.88% to 93.94% (+4.06%) across all 50 tasks. Although trained only under the Clean setting, BCP generalizes to the Randomized setting, raising the average success rate by +4.06%. It also transfers to a different base policy $\pi_{0.5}$, achieving a better …
