Retrieve, Don't Retrain: Extending Vision Language Action Models to New Tasks at Test Time

arXiv:2606. 15631v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Extending a vision-language-action (VLA) policy to a new task typically requires task-specific teleoperated demonstrations and per-task fine-tuning, making adaptation costly in both data collection and compute.

Behavior-Invariant Task Representation Learning with Transformer-based World Models for Offline Meta-Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2606. 00780v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Offline meta-reinforcement learning leverages static datasets to enable agents to generalize to unseen environments by combining offline efficiency with meta-learning adaptability, yet it faces key challenges from context and policy distribution shifts.

In-Context Reinforcement Learning under Non-Stationarity: A Survey

arXiv:2607. 11906v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The development of decision-pretrained transformers, algorithm distillation, long-context meta-RL, and retrieval-augmented agents has renewed interest in in-context reinforcement learning (ICRL): the ability of a pretrained or fine-tuned decision model to infer latent task rules and improve future behavior from interaction context, without test-time parameter updates.
