arXiv:2607. 01225v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prior work on imitation learning from suboptimal demonstrations typically relies on compressed supervision signals such as confidence estimates, discriminator scores, or importance weights.
arXiv:2508. 08983v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Humans can learn a new manipulation task from one or two demonstrations and then perform it in a new room, with new objects, under new constraints.
arXiv:2606. 02194v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Distilling expert demonstration data into large generative models using behavioral cloning is a scalable approach to learning capable policies for robotic control, particularly for dexterous manipulation.
arXiv:2606. 09758v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Parametric imitation learning via behavior cloning can suffer from poor generalization to out-of-distribution states due to compounding errors during deployment.
arXiv:2607. 02466v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models are fundamentally bottlenecked by the scarcity of expert demonstrations -- triplets of observations, instructions, and actions that are costly to collect at scale.
arXiv:2606. 01238v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While diffusion-based policies have impressive performance and expressivity, their long offline training slows down the data collection and policy deployment loop.
arXiv:2502. 18447v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing approaches to reward inference typically assume that humans provide demonstrations according to specific behavior models.
arXiv:2505. 04999v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Learning robot control policies from demonstrations typically requires action-labeled expert data, which is expensive to collect through teleoperation.
arXiv:2607. 07859v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) research has increasingly shifted focus towards alignment, ensuring agents learn behaviors adhering to human values.
arXiv:2607. 29617v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Imitation learning (IL)---training an agent to replicate expert behavior from demonstrations---underpins applications from robotics to language model training.
arXiv:2602. 02762v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Semi-supervised imitation learning (SSIL) consists in learning a policy from a small dataset of action-labeled trajectories and a much larger dataset of action-free trajectories.
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated strong capabilities in robotic manipulation by integrating visual perception, language understanding, and robot action generation. Existing research has primarily focused on improving model architectures, training strategies, and dataset scale, while little attention has been paid to how demonstrations are collected and organized.
arXiv:2512. 00062v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Robotic policy learning for complex real-world manipulation tasks has seen rapid recent progress, enabled in large part by the ability to collect demonstrations through human operation.
