AVERT-VLN: Abstention-aware Visual Error Recovery and Training for Vision-and-Language Navigation

AVERT-VLN introduces a closed‑loop framework for vision‑and‑language navigation that incorporates an abstention‑aware Monitor to detect instruction‑execution inconsistencies. The Monitor is trained on a new LOSTNAV dataset of 20K counterfactual risk trajectories and fine‑tuned on 40K normal trajectories to recognize semantic deviations. During deployment, the Monitor can suspend autonomous navigation and request human guidance, while offline preference learning uses deviation‑associated failures to improve the policy, achieving 76.2% and 66.3% success on R2R‑CE and RxR‑CE unseen splits.

SPOT-E: Test-Time Entropy Shaping with Visual Spotlights for Frozen VLMs

arXiv:2606. 20244v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) often underperform on evidence intensive tasks because decisive visual evidence are small, localized, and easy to overlook, leading to failures in evidence readout even when high-level reasoning is intact.

SkillLens: Visual Skill Cards for Retrieval-Augmented GUI Action Prediction and On-Policy Distillation

Computer-using agents can perceive rich software interfaces, yet their decisions often lack visual procedural memory: they may recognize individual controls without identifying which familiar workflow is active, which control matters next, or what evidence would confirm progress. Raw interaction traces preserve such information but are long and noisy to condition on, whereas text-only skills often omit the visual state that makes a procedure applicable.
