GROW: Aligning GRPO with State-Action Modeling for Open-World VLM Agents

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2605.20246v1 Announce Type: new Recently, vision-language model (VLM) agents have shown promising progress in open-world tasks, where successful task completion often requires multiple turns of visual perception and action execution. However, existing methods still rely primarily on Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) with expert nstrations, while the advanced reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm, specifically Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), has not been effectively employed for multi-turn RL in these tasks because standard GRPO requires full trajectories as
