The paper introduces SPACE, a method for enabling large language model agents to emit variable-length action chunks in long-horizon tasks. By distilling chunk-boundary supervision from programmatic skills derived from successful trajectories, SPACE overcomes the tendency of agents to either act one step at a time or commit to overly long sequences. Experiments on ALFWorld and ScienceWorld demonstrate that SPACE raises success rates by 7.0%–31.3% and cuts LLM decision rounds by up to 78.9%.
FlexiWorld is a JEPA-based latent world model that learns variable‑length action chunks across multiple time scales for goal‑directed planning. It jointly trains a causal action encoder and an autoregressive actor, using mixed‑span goal supervision and Student Forcing to reduce exposure bias. In experiments on four benchmarks, FlexiWorld with the Actor‑Residual Cross‑Entropy Method (ARCEM) achieves higher mean success rates than the strongest baseline and supports flexible planning chunk lengths without retraining.

The paper introduces Predictive Action Chunk Learning (PACL), a method for improving robot manipulation policies using mixed-quality deployment experience. PACL first trains a predictive chunk-level critic to evaluate temporally extended action sequences, then uses the critic’s quality estimates to guide a diffusion actor that learns from both successful and failed rollouts. Experiments on simulated and real robots demonstrate that PACL consistently enhances pretrained policies and outperforms strong imitation learning and offline reinforcement learning baselines.
