Coordinating from Memory: Graph-Structured Experience Reuse for Multi-Agent Adaptation in Dynamic Manufacturing

Dynamic manufacturing environments require multi-agent systems to coordinate effectively under frequent operational disturbances such as machine failures, urgent job arrivals, and processing time variations. Existing multi-agent reinforcement learning approaches treat each disturbance episode independently, discarding valuable coordination experience that could accelerate future adaptation. In this paper, we propose a Graph-Structured Experiential Memory (GSEM) framework for multi-agent coordination in dynamic manufacturing. The framework encodes historical coordination episodes as heterogeneous relational graphs that capture task dependencies, machine states, and inter-agent collaboration patterns. When a new disturbance occurs, a graph neural network-based retrieval mechanism identifies structurally similar past episodes, enabling experience-guided policy adaptation rather than learning from scratch. Experiments on dynamic flexible job-shop scheduling benchmarks with three disturbance types show that GSEM reduces makespan by 4.1%-10.0% and adaptation time by 33%-38% compared to the strongest memory-augmented baseline, with the advantage increasing under higher disturbance frequency. Ablation studies and cross-disturbance transfer experiments further validate the necessity of graph-structured encoding and similarity-based retrieval and demonstrate the cross-disturbance generalizability of learned coordination patterns.

HELP: Human-Efficient Large-Scale Robot Post-Training with Rollout Segmentation

When adapting Vision Language Action (VLA) models to downstream tasks, multiple rounds of post-training are often required to progressively address policy weaknesses. In this report, we focus on maximizing human efficiency during this iterative process, measured by policy improvement and task throughput per unit of human labor and time. We propose HELP, a Human-Efficient Large-scale robot Post-training pipeline in which two specialized operators supervise twelve robots concurrently. A trained Teleoperator provides high-value remote interventions and recovery demonstrations, while a Floor Operator monitors the robot fleet, triggers takeovers, and performs physical resets. This role specialization improves human efficiency by reducing task switching, lowering operator training costs, and expanding robot interaction coverage. Beyond increasing rollout volume, concurrent supervision also broadens the range of policy behaviors observed by the human team, making recurring failure modes easier to identify and enabling more targeted takeovers, resets, and recovery demonstrations. To efficiently utilize the large and mixed-quality rollout data, HELP incorporates \vlac, an automatic rollout segmentation critic specifically designed for this setting. It separates autonomous trajectories into progress-making, idle, failure-inducing, and recovery segments. Useful rollout segments are retained and combined with Human-in-the-Loop data for the next post-training round. Across four real-world manipulation tasks, HELP achieves 80\%--95\% success rates and improves task throughput by 1.7$\times$--4.2$\times$ over the base model. Under matched HITL recovery budgets, VLAC-CUT further amplifies throughput gains by 1.20$\times$--3.43$\times$ and success-rate gains by 1.50$\times$--3.00$\times$ over HITL-only updates.

The Signal-Coverage Matrix: Stratifying Type and Semantic Errors in Statement Autoformalization

Headline type-correctness (TC\%) of LLM autoformalization has climbed from $\sim$53\% to $\sim$76\% in two years, yet this scalar conceals which errors each method resolves. We propose a signal-coverage matrix that crosses the Lean elaborator (pass/fail) with a semantic-equivalence judgment (equivalent/not), sorting every output into one of four cells: true success (TS), type-only (TO), semantic-only (SO), or both fail (BF). On ProofNet\# and MiniF2F-test with DeepSeek V4-Pro across Vanilla, Lean-Retry, Sample-Filter, and Stratified Autoformalization (SAF): (1) the +34 to +36 TS gain across the three elab-feedback methods is $\sim$64\% type-stratum recovery, with SO flat on net (87.5\% of original semantic errors rescued, 8 newly created). (2) The TO-to-TS rate is 23/61 for each method (Wilson 95\% CI [26.6\%, 50.3\%]), and this stratum-level recovery rate predicts $\Delta$TS on held-out methods to within 2/186 and renders $\Delta$TC linear in the Vanilla elab-fail rate across six (model, dataset) cells ($R^2=0.96$). (3) The two judges disagree by 26 to 37 pp on elab-feedback outputs (vs. 7 pp on Vanilla), with 30 to 56\% of symbolic-judge false negatives traceable to elaborator-forced rewrites. The persistent residual reduces to two gold-formalization errors. TC\% gains should be credited by which cell moved, not by the scalar alone.

Robust Self-Training with Closed-loop Label Correction for Learning from Noisy Labels

Training deep neural networks with noisy labels remains a significant challenge, often leading to degraded performance. Existing methods for handling label noise typically rely on either transition matrix, noise detection, or meta-learning techniques, but they often exhibit low utilization efficiency of noisy samples and incur high computational costs. In this paper, we propose a self-training label correction framework using decoupled bilevel optimization, where a classifier and neural correction function co-evolve. Leveraging a small clean dataset, our method employs noisy posterior simulation and intermediate features to transfer ground-truth knowledge, forming a closed-loop feedback system that prevents error amplification. Theoretical guarantees underpin the stability of our approach, and extensive experiments on benchmark datasets like CIFAR and Clothing1M confirm state-of-the-art performance with reduced training time, highlighting its practical applicability for learning from noisy labels.
