The paper introduces QWM, a framework that integrates world models with standard Q‑learning to perform test‑time search over imagined trajectories. By training the policy and value function solely on real transitions, QWM avoids compounding model bias while still benefiting from predictive search. Experiments on the Robomimic and LIBERO manipulation benchmarks show that QWM outperforms strong prior state‑of‑the‑art methods in both sample efficiency and performance.

arXiv:2605. 05172v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Behavior Cloning (BC) has emerged as a highly effective paradigm for robot learning.
The paper introduces a method that integrates action abstraction into policy optimization for reinforcement learning and generative flow networks. By iteratively identifying frequently used action subsequences in high‑reward trajectories and treating them as single high‑level actions, the approach expands the action space and improves sample efficiency. Experiments on synthetic and real‑world tasks show that this technique discovers diverse high‑reward states more effectively, especially on challenging exploration problems, and yields interpretable abstract actions that reflect the underlying reward structure.
