New CEDAR framework grounds language instructions in automata for embodied agents

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed CEDAR, a new framework that uses regular languages to represent constraints for embodied agents. This approach grounds natural language instructions into finite automata, allowing for verifiable and composable skills. By intersecting learned skills with specific constraints, CEDAR ensures that agents adhere to temporal and spatial requirements, as demonstrated in Minecraft where it outperformed a baseline model in maintaining these constraints and reducing LLM queries.

IMPACT Introduces a method for verifiable and composable skills in embodied agents, potentially improving reliability and reducing LLM calls.

    CEDAR: Automata as Verifiable Interfaces for Language-Guided Embodied Action

    arXiv:2608.27797v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Natural-language tasking of embodied agents is rarely just goal specification: users also impose constraints that must persist while the world changes. Code-generating LLM agents can produce plausible behaviors for such instructio…
