• Abstract: Failure is inevitable for embodied navigation in complex environments. To enhance the resilience, replanning (RP) is a viable option, where the robot is allowed to fail, but is capable of adjusting plan until success. However, existing RP approaches freeze the ego action model and miss the opportunities to explore better plans by upgrading the robot itself. To address this limitation, we propose Self-Evolutionary RePlanning, or SERP for short, which leads to a paradigm shift from frozen models towards evolving models by run-time learning from recent experiences. In contrast to existing model evolution approaches that often get stuck at predefined static parameters, we introduce agentic self-evolving action model that uses in-context learning with auto-differentiation (ILAD) for adaptive function adjustment and global parameter reset. To achieve token-efficient replanning for SERP, we also propose graph chain-of-thought (GCOT) replanning with large language model (LLM) inference over distilled graphs. Extensive simulation and real-world experiments demonstrate that SERP achieves higher success rate with lower token expenditure over various benchmarks, validating its superior robustness and efficiency across diverse environments.

  Real-world machine learning systems often encounter model performance degradation due to distributional shifts in the underlying data generating process.

  Planning with generative models has emerged as an effective decision-making paradigm across a wide range of domains. While continuous replanning at each timestep might seem intuitive because it allows decisions to be made based on the most recent environmental observations, it results in substantial computational challenges. Our work addresses this challenge by introducing a simple adaptive planning policy that leverages the generative model's ability to predict long-horizon state trajectories.
