RoboPapers previews an episode on self-improving robot policies
The Q-Planning project says its method pairs a fixed robot policy trained by imitation with a small Q-function that learns from the system’s own deployment runs.
TLDR
RoboPapers announced a discussion of “Beyond Imitation: Self-Improving Robot Policies via Off-Policy Q-Planning.” In its September 17, 2026, announcement, it said the full episode would be released “soon.” The project page describes Q-Planning as turning a frozen behavior-cloning policy into a self-improving system by pairing it with a small off-policy Q-function that learns from deployment runs.
