arXiv:2606. 20858v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The temporal structure of reward composition in reinforcement learning (RL) is typically hand-designed and held fixed throughout training, leaving the progression of motivational priorities largely unexplored.

arXiv:2608. 02993v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: (Flat) Reinforcement Learning (RL) agents face significant challenges in environments with sparse rewards that require long-horizon reasoning.

arXiv:2607. 17038v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper addresses key technical challenges in current large language model (LLM) agent applications, including long-horizon planning, sparse reward attribution, and dynamic environmental interaction, by designing and optimizing an intelligent agent workflow.

arXiv:2606. 10507v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities as autonomous agents across a wide range of tasks, their performance often degrades in multi-turn long-horizon agentic tasks.

arXiv:2601. 15158v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Transformers trained via Reinforcement Learning (RL) with outcome-based supervision can spontaneously develop the ability to generate intermediate reasoning steps (Chain-of-Thought).

arXiv:2608. 05111v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In partially observable reinforcement learning, agents face a dual bottleneck: they must explore to encounter rewarding states and retain that experience in memory to optimize their policies.

arXiv:2505. 13372v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent work investigated the use of Reinforcement Learning (RL) for the synthesis of heuristic guidance to improve the performance of temporal planners when a domain is fixed and a set of training problems (not plans) is given.

arXiv:2607. 12861v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) holds great potential for robot swarms, but the black-box nature of neural policies complicates strategic analysis, limiting multi-robot applications.
