HALO-WA: Hybrid-Attention Latent-Guided Online Reinforcement Learning for World-Action Models

arXiv:2607. 04265v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World-action (WA) models can generate long-horizon action chunks for general-purpose robotic manipulation, but they remain vulnerable to calibration, perception, and contact-dynamics errors in real-world precision tasks, often failing in the final few millimeters of alignment or insertion.

Distributed Optimization of Modular Production Systems using Model-based Reinforcement Learning with Inverse Models

The paper introduces a data‑driven self‑learning control method for highly flexible, modular manufacturing systems. It uses a model‑based reinforcement learning framework that incorporates approximate inverse process models, separating actuation dynamics from state‑space dynamics so that training occurs only in task space. A lightweight feedforward architecture for these inverse models is integrated into standard RL policy networks and tested on a laboratory modular production testbed, showing improved performance and faster training, especially for off‑policy algorithms.

Foresight Residual RL for Long-Horizon Robot Manipulation with Vision-Language-Action Models

arXiv:2607. 16506v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies offer strong general-purpose manipulation priors, but often fail on tight-tolerance, contact-rich assembly due to long-horizon credit assignment and subtask coupling: a state that is geometrically successful for the current skill can be brittle for downstream skills.
