SFCo-Nav: Efficient Zero-Shot Visual Language Navigation via Collaboration of Slow LLM and Fast Attributed Graph Alignment

Description

Recent advances in large vision-language models (VLMs) and large language models (LLMs) have enabled zero-shot approaches to visual language navigation (VLN), where an agent follows natural language instructions using only ego perception and reasoning. However, existing zero-shot methods typically construct a naive observation graph and perform per-step VLM-LLM inference on it, resulting in high latency and computation costs that limit real-time deployment. To address this, we present SFCo-Nav,
