ASK in the Dark: Uncertainty-Gated LLM Assistance under Partial Observability

Juarez Monteiro, Nathan Gavenski, Guilherme Lima +3

Reinforcement learning agents operating under partial observability must act on incomplete information, making them natural candidates for guidance from small language models (SLMs…

When in Doubt, Plan It Out: Committed Small Language Model Deliberation for Reactive Reinforcement Learning

Nathan Gavenski, Juarez Monteiro, Francisco Galuppo +2

Reinforcement Learning (RL) policies often degrade in unfamiliar environments because they lack explicit deliberation. We propose Plan, Align, Commit, Think (PACT), a hybrid archit…

Online Goal Recognition using Path Signature and Dynamic Time Warping

Douglas Tesch, Nathan Gavenski, Leonardo Amado +2

Online goal recognition in continuous domains poses two central challenges: efficiently encoding large trajectories and effectively comparing them. Recent work addresses these chal…

Beyond Mimicry: Toward Lifelong Adaptability in Imitation Learning

Nathan Gavenski, Felipe Meneguzzi, Odinaldo Rodrigues

Imitation learning stands at a crossroads: despite decades of progress, current imitation learning agents remain sophisticated memorisation machines, excelling at replay but failin…

Towards Generalisable Imitation Learning Through Conditioned Transition Estimation and Online Behaviour Alignment

Nathan Gavenski, Matteo Leonetti, Odinaldo Rodrigues

State-of-the-art imitation learning from observation methods (ILfO) have recently made significant progress, but they still have some limitations: they need action-based supervised…

Quantifying Generalisation in Imitation Learning

Nathan Gavenski, Odinaldo Rodrigues

Imitation learning benchmarks often lack sufficient variation between training and evaluation, limiting meaningful generalisation assessment. We introduce Labyrinth, a benchmarking…

Explorative Imitation Learning: A Path Signature Approach for Continuous Environments

Nathan Gavenski, Juarez Monteiro, Felipe Meneguzzi +2

Some imitation learning methods combine behavioural cloning with self-supervision to infer actions from state pairs. However, most rely on a large number of expert trajectories to…

A Survey of Imitation Learning Methods, Environments and Metrics

Nathan Gavenski, Felipe Meneguzzi, Michael Luck +1

Imitation learning is an approach in which an agent learns how to execute a task by trying to mimic how one or more teachers perform it. This learning approach offers a compromise…

Imitation Learning Datasets: A Toolkit For Creating Datasets, Training Agents and Benchmarking

Nathan Gavenski, Michael Luck, Odinaldo Rodrigues

Imitation learning field requires expert data to train agents in a task. Most often, this learning approach suffers from the absence of available data, which results in techniques…
