FIERCE: From Generalist Robot Policies to Fast Specialists via Progress-Failure Feedback

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 16, 2026 · UTC

Generalist robot policies offer useful initialization, but refining compact specialists through limited physical interaction requires informative learning feedback. We present FIERCE, a generalist-initialized reinforcement learning framework centered on a unified, task-adaptive progress-failure evaluator. Its architecture shares an observation-language representation between an observed-progress head and an action-conditioned latent predictor whose past and current predictions feed a causal sequence head for task-failure estimation. Joint supervision from progress and preference labels, synchr
