arXiv:2606. 24669v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have shown strong potential for planning and sequential decision-making, but prior work often relies on using them as direct controllers, which requires precise action generation and can be unreliable in practice.

arXiv:2607. 04854v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite their strong reasoning capabilities and extensive world knowledge, Large Language Models (LLMs) frequently generate plans that violate task constraints, undermining their reliability in real-world applications.

Despite their strong reasoning capabilities and extensive world knowledge, Large Language Models (LLMs) frequently generate plans that violate task constraints, undermining their reliability in real-world applications. This deficiency arises from a lack of systematic mechanisms to incorporate constraint information during the generation process.

DeepPlanner is an end-to-end reinforcement learning framework designed to enhance the planning capabilities of deep research agents. It introduces an entropy-based advantage shaping mechanism that allocates larger updates to high-entropy planning tokens and selectively upweights sample-level advantages during planning-intensive rollouts. Experiments on seven deep research benchmarks show that DeepPlanner improves planning quality and achieves state‑of‑the‑art results with a lower training budget.

The paper introduces STEP, a State‑Aware Task Estimator and Planner that uses multi‑modal large language models to explicitly estimate system states and predict state transitions during task planning. By forecasting future states alongside actions, STEP reduces hallucinated actions and improves task‑convergent planning. In a simulated robot assembly task, STEP outperforms the state‑of‑the‑art by 32.8% in action executability and 14.8% in final‑state error.
