Evolving Cache Schedules for Fast Diffusion Policy Inference
Diffusion policies achieve strong visuomotor control by iteratively denoising action chunks, but repeated denoising makes real-time deployment computationally demanding. Cache-based methods reduce inference cost by reusing intermediate activations, but existing training-free schedules typically allocate computation uniformly across blocks, ignoring heterogeneous redundancy across blocks and leading to a suboptimal performance-efficiency trade-off. To bridge this gap, we introduce Evolving Cache Schedules (EVO), a training-free acceleration framework that globally schedules cache refreshes via
