arXiv:2606. 19990v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While RL has become a promising tool for refining world models, existing methods largely rely on conservative rollouts near the training distribution, limiting exploration, behavioral diversity, and richer dynamic discovery.

arXiv:2607. 01531v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Learning how an environment behaves from interaction is central to building agents that adapt to unfamiliar tasks.

arXiv:2512. 09706v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The paradigm of agentic AI is shifting from engineered complex workflows to post-training native models.

Learning how an environment behaves from interaction is central to building agents that adapt to unfamiliar tasks. World models learned with deep networks are flexible but data-hungry and transfer poorly beyond their training distribution.
arXiv:2601. 19810v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Unsupervised pre-training can equip reinforcement learning agents with prior knowledge and accelerate learning in downstream tasks.

arXiv:2606. 17680v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a powerful paradigm for training Large Language Models (LLMs) as agents.

arXiv:2601. 20334v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Robotic manipulation has increasingly adopted vision-language-action (VLA) models, which achieve strong performance but typically require task-specific demonstrations and fine-tuning, and often generalize poorly under domain shift.

arXiv:2607. 14200v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Imitation learning is an appealing way to scale game-playing agents to complex 3D environments by training policies to map visual observations to actions from human demonstrations.

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. 18235v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Zero-Shot Object-Goal Navigation (ZS-OGN) requires embodied agents to explore and locate target objects without any prior training.
