Learning Additively Compositional Latent Actions for Embodied AI

arXiv:2604.03340v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Latent action learning infers pseudo-action labels from visual transitions, providing an approach to leverage internet-scale video for embodied AI. However, most methods learn latent actions without structural priors that encode the additive, compositional structure of physical motion. As a result, latents often entangle irrelevant scene details or information about future observations with true state changes and miscalibrate motion magnitude. We introduce Additively Compositional Latent Action Model (AC-LAM), which enforces scene-wise additive composition structure over short horizons on the latent action space. These AC constraints encourage simple algebraic structure in the latent action space~(identity, inverse, cycle consistency) and suppress information that does not compose additively. Empirically, AC-LAM learns more structured, motion-specific, and displacement-calibrated latent actions and provides stronger supervision for downstream policy learning, outperforming state-of-the-art LAMs across simulated and real-world tabletop tasks.

ProCeedRL: Process Critic with Exploratory Demonstration Reinforcement Learning for LLM Agentic Reasoning

arXiv:2604.02006v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) significantly enhances the reasoning abilities of large language models (LLMs), yet applying it to multi-turn agentic tasks remains challenging due to the long-horizon nature of interactions and the stochasticity of environmental feedback. We identify a structural failure mode in agentic exploration: suboptimal actions elicit noisy observations into misleading contexts, which further weaken subsequent decision-making, making recovery increasingly difficult. This cumulative feedback loop of errors renders standard exploration strategies ineffective and susceptible to the model's reasoning and the environment's randomness. To mitigate this issue, we propose ProCeedRL: Process Critic with Explorative Demonstration RL, shifting exploration from passive selection to active intervention. ProCeedRL employs a process-level critic to monitor interactions in real time, incorporating reflection-based demonstrations to guide agents in stopping the accumulation of errors. We find that this approach significantly exceeds the model's saturated exploration performance, demonstrating substantial exploratory benefits. By learning from exploratory demonstrations and on-policy samples, ProCeedRL significantly improves exploration efficiency and achieves superior performance on complex deep search and embodied tasks.
