AVERT-VLN: Abstention-aware Visual Error Recovery and Training for Vision-and-Language Navigation

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.39579v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying vision-and-language navigation (VLN) agents in unseen environments remains challenging because unfamiliar layouts and visual conditions can cause execution to go off track. Rather than relying on continuous human supervision, a practical strategy is to selectively request corrective guidance, recover the ongoing task, and reuse corrective interactions to improve subsequent navigation. We propose Abstention-aware Visual Error Recovery and Training for Vision-and-Language Navigation (AVERT-VLN), a closed-loop framework that uses a plug-in vision-language Monitor for online human-assisted recovery and offline preference learning. The Monitor operates separately from navigation decision generation and assesses instruction-execution cons
