This paper proposes CAREL (Cross-modal Auxiliary REinforcement Learning), a novel framework for solving language-guided goal-reaching reinforcement learning problems. The framework uses auxiliary loss functions inspired by video-text retrieval literature and an instruction tracking method to enhance the model’s ability to generalize across tasks and environments. In experiments, CAREL shows superior sample efficiency and systematic generalization in multi-modal reinforcement learning problems.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
CAREL helps robots or AI agents understand instructions better so they can complete tasks successfully. It uses new ideas from video-text matching and a way to track progress in an environment. This makes the agent smarter and more efficient at learning, especially when it has to adapt to different situations.
