Uncertainty-Gated Exploration Noise Suppresses Task Collapse in Online RL Fine-Tuning of a Flow-Matching Vision-Language-Action Policy
Solving the catastrophic forgetting problem in robotic online reinforcement learning via uncertainty-gated noise.
Online reinforcement learning fine-tuning of pretrained flow-matching vision-language-action (VLA) policies promises robots that keep learning after deployment, but continued updates often destroy competence on individual tasks while the aggregate still looks healthy. We study th...
