arXiv:2606. 27180v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse rewards are inherently challenging for reinforcement learning agents as they lack intermediate feedback to guide exploration and to correctly attribute the sparse success rewards to relevant parts of the trajectory.
arXiv:2604. 16557v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Current post-training methodologies for adapting Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) generally fall into two paradigms: Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) and Reinforcement Learning (RL).
arXiv:2606. 00083v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning relies on accurate reward functions, which are often hand-crafted or even unavailable in real-world applications, such as robotics.
arXiv:2601. 03309v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, which integrate pretrained large Vision-Language Models (VLM) into their policy backbone, are gaining significant attention for their promising generalization capabilities.
arXiv:2606. 32027v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reward design remains a central bottleneck for autonomous robot policy improvement, especially in long-horizon manipulation tasks where sparse success labels provide too little signal and binary preferences collapse many competing notions of quality into one ambiguous signal.
arXiv:2606. 03376v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Hallucination has recently garnered significant research attention in Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs).
arXiv:2608. 03875v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Designing effective reward functions remains a major bottleneck in Reinforcement Learning (RL).
arXiv:2607. 08837v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Exploration is essential to RL since a policy cannot improve by repeatedly sampling the behaviors it already prefers.
arXiv:2608. 05954v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a powerful but far from easy-to-use technique for policy learning.
arXiv:2606. 03376v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hallucination has recently garnered significant research attention in Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs).
arXiv:2606. 19162v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Score- and flow-matching models often rely on preference-based reinforcement learning for two purposes: aligning with subjective preferences and, surprisingly, recovering properties such as visual realism and coherent object structure that matching-based training is intended to learn from the data itself.
arXiv:2606. 29892v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has become indispensable for pushing Vision-Language-Action Models (VLAs) beyond static imitation learning.
arXiv:2608. 17163v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Off-policy reinforcement learning (RL) has become increasingly sample-efficient, enabling applications such as RL fine-tuning of Vision-Language-Action models into reliable, high-performing policies.
