Classical reinforcement learning (RL) typically seeks a deterministic policy that maximizes the expected sum of a scalar reward. Yet, modern applications such as language model fine-tuning or scientific discovery demand diversity.
arXiv:2601. 22496v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In offline goal-conditioned reinforcement learning (GCRL), hierarchical approaches decompose long-horizon tasks into high-level subgoal prediction and low-level action execution.

arXiv:2607. 08647v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As autonomous agents are increasingly deployed across diverse operational contexts, aligning their behavior with human intent demands reward functions that remain robust to such changes rather than overfitting to any single environment.

arXiv:2607. 29246v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern large language models (LLMs) are expected not just to answer correctly, but to adapt their behavior to different human values and use cases.
