arXiv:2607. 16210v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) is increasingly applied in complex, safety-critical domains, yet the lack of rigorous behavioral guarantees for neural network-based policies remains a major barrier to deployment.

arXiv:2606. 06123v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: When learning to walk, infants seem to address a coarse version of the problem first - stay upright, reach the caregiver - and refine it only when further practice at that resolution stops paying off.

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.

arXiv:2608. 13625v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Signal temporal logic (STL) provides a formal language for specifying real-time properties of real-valued observations, along with a quantitative robustness score for monitoring satisfaction.

The paper introduces a diagnostic workflow for multi‑objective reinforcement learning (MORL) that reveals behavioral differences among policies on the Pareto front, which are not apparent from value vectors alone. It offers quantitative and visual tools to inspect these variations and demonstrates their effectiveness on both simple grid tasks and more complex continuous‑control benchmarks.

arXiv:2606. 00838v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inductive generalization is a framework for reinforcement learning (RL) generalization in which inductively related task instances admit inductively related policies.

arXiv:2607. 26787v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) are widely used as decision-making models, commonly specified over factored state spaces through state variables and their valuations.

arXiv:2606. 00840v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work presents a logic-driven framework to evaluate the performance of reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms in their ability to generalize to unseen tasks.

arXiv:2606. 04634v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Trust in a decision-making system requires both safety guarantees and the ability to interpret and understand its behavior.
