The paper aims to bridge the gap between Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-and-Language navigation (VLN) tasks by integrating LLMs into robotic navigation. It highlights the potential of LLMs to generalize navigational reasoning and diverse language understanding, but notes a significant discrepancy in agent performance when using LLMs compared to previous specialist models. The authors propose a method that aligns visual content with frozen LLMs to enable linguistic navigational reasoning, achieving data efficiency and eliminating the gap between LM-based agents and state-of-the-art VLN specialists.

The paper wants to help robots understand language better. It uses special machines called Large Language Models (LLMs) to make robots smarter. But the problem is that these LLMs aren’t as good at navigating as other models are. The authors came up with a new way to use the LLMs and other tools to make robots better at following instructions and finding their way around.
