arXiv:2606. 05888v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retry-based objectives such as pass@K and max@K optimize the best return obtained from multiple sampled trajectories, and recent work has shown that they can promote exploration without explicit exploration bonuses.

arXiv:2601. 23075v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: On-policy Reinforcement Learning (RL) remains a dominant paradigm for continuous control, yet standard implementations rely on Gaussian actors and relatively shallow MLP policies, often leading to brittle optimization when gradients are noisy, and policy updates must be conservative.

arXiv:2608. 03967v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative Flow Networks (GFlowNets) have emerged as a flexible framework for amortised inference over discrete and mixed discrete-continuous objects, requiring only an unnormalised target density specified through a reward.

arXiv:2607. 28390v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Constrained Markov Decision Processes (CMDPs) provide a natural framework for reinforcement learning in safety-critical applications, where agents maximize long-term reward while satisfying long-term constraints.

arXiv:2606. 06080v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards is widely used for post-training reasoning models, but sparse outcome rewards make exploration difficult.

arXiv:2606. 06967v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative policies provide expressive and multimodal action distributions, making them attractive for reinforcement learning (RL) in complex continuous-control tasks.

arXiv:2605. 04568v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: State-of-the-art model-based Reinforcement Learning (RL) approaches either use gradient-free, population-based methods for planning, learned policy networks, or a combination of policy networks and planning.
