MCR-Agent from Yonsei University introduces a three-level hierarchical learning framework for interactive instruction following, achieving 2.03% absolute gain in Path Length Weighted Success Rate on unseen ALFRED environments compared to similar state-of-the-art methods, without relying on external supervision or rule-based planning. This modular approach disentangles navigation from object interaction, leading to improved generalization and faster learning for complex household tasks.

Key insights

  • A deeper, three-level hierarchical policy with distinct modules for high-level planning, navigation, and specific interactions improves performance and generalization for complex tasks.
  • Explicitly disentangling navigation and interaction policies into specialized modules significantly enhances learning efficiency and task success, particularly by avoiding issues like sample imbalance.
  • Identifying the target object for navigation via an Object Encoding Module is crucial for efficient and accurate navigation to interaction points, acting as a direct navigational subgoal.
