EMPIRIC: Experiment-Driven Learning of Residual World Models for Robot Planning

Yichao Liang, Amber Li, Dat Nguyen +13

A robot should be able to learn through experiments how unfamiliar objects behave and interact, then plan with that knowledge. It need not start from scratch: physics engines suppl…

Benchmarking World-Model Learning with Environment-Level Queries

Archana Warrier, Dat Nguyen, Michelangelo Naim +8

World models are central to building AI agents capable of flexible reasoning and planning. Yet current evaluations (i) test only properties measurable from observed interactions, s…

ExoPredicator: Learning Abstract Models of Dynamic Worlds for Robot Planning

Yichao Liang, Dat Nguyen, Cambridge Yang +7

Long-horizon embodied planning is challenging because the world does not only change through an agent's actions: exogenous processes (e.g., water heating, dominoes cascading) unfol…

Assessing Adaptive World Models in Machines with Novel Games

Lance Ying, Katherine M. Collins, Prafull Sharma +11

Human intelligence exhibits a remarkable capacity for rapid adaptation and effective problem-solving in novel and unfamiliar contexts. We argue that this profound adaptability is f…

Combining Induction and Transduction for Abstract Reasoning

Wen-Ding Li, Keya Hu, Carter Larsen +11

When learning an input-output mapping from very few examples, is it better to first infer a latent function that explains the examples, or is it better to directly predict new test…

How does the primate brain combine generative and discriminative computations in vision?

Benjamin Peters, James J. DiCarlo, Todd Gureckis +10

Vision is widely understood as an inference problem. However, two contrasting conceptions of the inference process have each been influential in research on biological vision as we…
