The paper introduces the ACE framework, which uses spatially explicit inspection to guide embodied exploration. By combining evidence‑grounded perception with exposure‑informed movement, ACE provides a spatially resolved decision paradigm that improves cue assessment and movement direction. Experiments show ACE boosts navigation task success by 18.0% and exploration efficiency by 10.3% over previous baselines.

On-policy exploration is a crucial component for training robust Vision-Language Navigation agents, as it exposes the policy to a broader state distribution. However, such exploration inevitably leads to trajectories that deviate from expert demonstrations, resulting in a semantic mismatch between the executed visual stream and the original language instruction.
arXiv:2607. 29419v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In reinforcement learning, exploration with sparse and delayed rewards presents a significant challenge due to the limited feedback available for guiding the learning process.
