FlowMPC: New Framework Combines Flow Matching and World Models to Improve Robot Manipulation
Researchers introduce FlowMPC, a framework that pairs imitation-learned flow matching policies with a learned world model for test-time planning using MPPI. On ManiSkill manipulation tasks PickCube and PickSingleYCB, adding the world model improved performance over the flow matching policy alone, with clear gains in end-of-episode success.
