The paper introduces ARLI, a latency‑aware framework that enables reinforcement learning fine‑tuning of large generalist robot policies despite inference delays. ARLI combines asynchronous inference with state augmentations—incorporating committed actions and mid‑inference observations—to restore near‑Markovian dynamics and maintain reactivity. Experiments on simulated and real‑world manipulation tasks show that ARLI allows effective policy improvement under latency, outperforming standard RL even in no‑latency scenarios.

The paper proposes a centralized training with decentralized execution framework for multi‑agent UAV pathfinding in stochastic environments, leveraging multi‑agent reinforcement learning enhanced by model predictive control concepts. Agents communicate only with a centralized planner and use a distance‑weighted mean‑field observation to plan feasible paths, while multi‑step value convergence improves training efficiency. Experiments, including ablation and real‑robot studies, demonstrate the method’s effectiveness and generalization.
The paper introduces A‑SLS, a learning‑aware robust adaptive model predictive control framework that forecasts future parameter uncertainty and preserves correlations among disturbances, parameter errors, and estimate updates to build tight reachable sets. It presents a GPU‑accelerated solver enabling real‑time performance on high‑dimensional systems, demonstrated on a quadruped with 61 states and a Crazyflie drone that learns dynamics online to stabilize during flight.
