因果整合報酬で長期的操作を段階的に習得するロボット学習

原文アブストラクト

Long-horizon manipulation requires actions whose validity depends on earlier interactions, yet visual progress can conceal missing task prerequisites. We propose RoboLongR, an offline-to-online framework that learns history-dependent rewards to guide policy adaptation to new tasks. Its central objective is causal consistency: aligning rewarded progress with prerequisites supported by execution history. Stage-shuffle supervision encourages execution-order sensitivity, recurrent memory preserves evidence of earlier interactions, and two-round training refines trajectory segments using predicted progress. The resulting rewards guide stage-conditioned policy refinement from behavior cloning to online reinforcement learning. Sparse terminal feedback connects policy experience to reward learning by triggering correction for repeated high-scoring failures. Pretrained on demonstrations from 88 RLBench tasks and Open-X data, RoboLongR achieves 31.8% average success on 18 long-horizon tasks excluded from reward pretraining, exceeding the strongest evaluated baseline by 9.2 percentage points. Across four real-robot tasks, it achieves 57.5% success, a 32.5-percentage-point improvement over the comparison method. Reward-level controls probe sensitivity to synthetic order perturbations, while ablations examine the contributions of individual components to policy improvement.
