Grounding LTL Tasks in Sub-Symbolic RL Environments for Zero-Shot Generalization

arXiv:2602. 09761v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this work we address the problem of training a Reinforcement Learning agent to follow multiple temporally-extended instructions expressed in Linear Temporal Logic in sub-symbolic environments.

Anchoring What Matters: A Dual-Level Learning Framework for Visually-Grounded Multimodal Reasoning

The paper introduces PIVOT, a dual-level learning framework designed to improve visually-grounded multimodal reasoning in large vision-language models. PIVOT employs a self‑calibrated experience replay mechanism to selectively reuse valuable visual reasoning trajectories, and a vision‑guided advantage allocation scheme that assigns extra rewards to tokens with strong visual support. Experiments on multiple benchmarks show that PIVOT enhances the multimodal reasoning performance of these models.

Semantically Labelled Automata for Multi-Task Reinforcement Learning with LTL Instructions

arXiv:2602. 06746v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study multi-task reinforcement learning (RL), a setting in which an agent learns a single, universal policy capable of generalising to arbitrary, possibly unseen tasks.

Token-Sparse Medical Multimodal Reasoning via Dual-Stream Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2606. 31599v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) combining reinforcement learning (RL) ignite remarkable progress in multimodal reasoning, yet still struggle with medical images, which typically exhibit extremely sparse visual evidence to inform clinical decision-making.

From Demonstrations to Rewards: Test-Time Prompt Optimization for VLM Reward Models

arXiv:2606. 00083v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning relies on accurate reward functions, which are often hand-crafted or even unavailable in real-world applications, such as robotics.
