Long-horizon LLM agents are typically trained with sparse outcome rewards, making trajectory-level objectives too coarse to distinguish the contribution of individual decisions. Step-level credit assignment provides finer-grained supervision, but its estimates can be unreliable because observed returns also depend on s …

LLM agents deployed in real-world environments continually encounter new tasks and safety risks, while execution feedback typically becomes available only after each task is completed. However, existing self-evolving approaches commonly rely on multiple rounds of optimization over fixed and repeatedly accessible task d …

Physical AI aims to build embodied agents that perceive the world, understand and reason about it, and decide how to act. Yet the field has focused primarily on the last component: the action model that maps observations to low-level controls. The prevailing training recipe can erode the perceptual and reasoning capabi …
