Two problems make LLM planners fail there. Tasks need long chains of dependent sub-goals, so a plan written in one pass is often wrong. Plans also ignore which of several alternative sub-goals the agent can reach most easily… 2. **[JARVIS-1: Open-World Multi-task Agents with Memory-Augmented Multimodal Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2023-jarvis-1-open-world-multi/)** *(2023 · 47 citations)* Agents in open worlds need to plan over long horizons, respond to what they observe, and keep improving as the range of possible tasks grows without limit. 3. **[Open-World Multi-Task Control Through Goal-Aware Representation Learning and Adaptive Horizon Prediction](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/cai-2023-open-world-multi-task-control/)** *(2023 · 18 citations)* The paper tackles training a single goal-conditioned agent for many tasks in Minecraft. The authors identify two obstacles. First, the game's scenes are so varied that observations reveal little about which task is being pursued. Second, partial observability makes the dynamics non-stationary, so the agent cannot… ## Co-authors here 9 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Anji Liu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/anji-liu/) ×3 - [Xiaojian Ma](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xiaojian-ma/) ×3 - [Yitao Liang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yitao-liang/) ×3 - [Zihao Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zihao-wang/) ×3 - [Bowei Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/bowei-zhang/) - [Haowei Lin](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/haowei-lin/) - [Yaodong Yang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yaodong-yang/) - [Zhaofeng He](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zhaofeng-he/) - [Zilong Zheng](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zilong-zheng/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/ieee-computer-society-conference-on-computer-vision-and-pattern-recognition/): [IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition 2023](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/ieee-computer-society-conference-on-computer-vision-and-pattern-recognition/2023/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 617 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [188 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shaofei-cai/cited-by/).
