OPTIC-ER is a reinforcement learning framework designed to improve emergency response in underserved African communities by providing real‑time, adaptive, and equitable dispatch decisions. It employs an attention‑guided actor‑critic architecture with a Context‑Rich State Vector and a Precision Reward Function, trained on high‑fidelity simulations using real data from Rivers State, Nigeria. In tests on 500 unseen incidents, OPTIC-ER reduced response times by over 35% and surpassed the nearest‑facility heuristic’s 62.94% optimal‑selection rate, while also producing infrastructure deficiency maps and equity monitoring dashboards.
arXiv:2608. 14332v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning is promising for autonomous urban driving, but long-horizon goal-directed navigation asks a policy to acquire several competing behaviors at once--reaching a distant goal, tracking a route, avoiding obstacles, obeying signals--and a fixed objective gives no order in which to learn them.
arXiv:2607. 14093v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents a novel three level hierarchical learning architecture for autonomous UAV swarms performing search and rescue operations.
arXiv:2610.04801v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A useful model of AI inference infrastructure must specify the system state, the information available to an observer, and the decisions the...
CoRe-MARL is a cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning framework designed for decentralized relief distribution networks. It models each local center as an agent in a Dec-POMDP, using a recurrent network to learn redistribution policies that reduce service gaps and improve the worst-served region. Experiments show that recurrent MAPPO outperforms independent PPO and heuristic baselines, maintaining competitive network-wide service while adapting to evolving supply and demand dynamics.
Emergency management assistance programs, such as relief distribution, are essential for delivering necessary supplies to affected communities. However, these programs operate in a decentralized netwo...

RS-Claw-Evolution is an environment-feedback-driven framework designed to enhance lightweight remote sensing agents for long-horizon tasks. It improves agents through three stages—interaction evolution, experience evolution, and decision evolution—using executable code, failure-aware trajectory generation, and reinforcement learning with multi-dimensional rewards. On Earth-Bench, a Qwen3-4B agent trained with this framework reaches 65.9% accuracy, surpassing larger baselines and approaching GPT-5 performance.
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:2608. 09467v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unmanned aerial vehicle vision-language navigation (UAV-VLN) requires agents to translate visual observations and language instructions into reliable flight actions in complex environments.
The paper proposes Neuro‑Symbolic Agentic AI (NSAAI) as a framework that blends neural grounding, symbolic reasoning, and closed‑loop interaction to enhance decision‑making for networked low‑altitude UAVs. It outlines NSAAI’s strengths in data efficiency, compositional generalization, continual learning, and zero‑shot transfer, and presents a reference architecture covering task management, planning, verification, skill execution, and network interaction. An urban fire‑inspection simulation demonstrates how a UAV can coordinate sensing, cloud access, and verified image‑delivery skills under intermittent connectivity, illustrating NSAAI’s potential for reusable skills, evidence‑grounded decisions, and adaptive mission execution.
arXiv:2606. 29932v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon strategic planning in complex strategy games demands concurrent reasoning across multiple decision domains under imperfect information and sparse reward.
arXiv:2606. 06217v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When a disaster unfolds, responders must answer not only what is happening, but also why it is happening, what will happen next, and what to do now, often from noisy low-altitude UAV views and under tight on-site compute constraints.
