Don't Blind Your VLA: Aligning Visual Representations for OOD Generalization
Nikita Kachaev, Mikhail Kolosov, Daniil Zelezetsky +2
The growing success of Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models stems from the promise that pretrained Vision-Language Models (VLMs) can endow agents with transferable world knowledge a…
A New Perspective on Transformers in Online Reinforcement Learning for Continuous Control
Nikita Kachaev, Daniil Zelezetsky, Egor Cherepanov +2
Despite their effectiveness and popularity in offline or model-based reinforcement learning (RL), transformers remain underexplored in online model-free RL due to their sensitivity…
Mind and Motion Aligned: A Joint Evaluation IsaacSim Benchmark for Task Planning and Low-Level Policies in Mobile Manipulation
Nikita Kachaev, Andrei Spiridonov, Andrey Gorodetsky +8
Benchmarks are crucial for evaluating progress in robotics and embodied AI. However, a significant gap exists between benchmarks designed for high-level language instruction follow…
Memory, Benchmark & Robots: A Benchmark for Solving Complex Tasks with Reinforcement Learning
Egor Cherepanov, Nikita Kachaev, Alexey K. Kovalev +1
Memory is crucial for enabling agents to tackle complex tasks with temporal and spatial dependencies. While many reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms incorporate memory, the fiel…
