Decision models offer fast choices over sup- plied alternatives, while general-purpose large language models interpret open-ended tasks through flexible generation and reasoning at the cost of sequential decoding. Many work- loads expect a generative backend to determine what can be done and therefore provide no well-defined candidate list. We bridge this in- terface gap with a small candidate formalizer trained on offline teacher-generated lists. The formalizer constructs explicit, validated alter- natives from task context, and a frozen deci- sion model selects an entry. A motivating com- parison with official TypeSafe Jev-1.13.0 on 200 CALVIN-D test episodes reports 11% suc- cess with generic motions versus 46.5% with DeepSeek V4 Flash pose candidates. Sepa- rately, a six-arm privileged-state evaluation on 1,011 CALVIN-D validation annotations finds that a locally deployed decision model can achieve at most 52.6% task success rate with the fine-tuned formalizer, compared with 11.8% without it, and the end-to-end latency is kept to 2.09 s, whereas Qwen3.5-27B is 3.67 s with the exact experiment setting.
This paper investigates developing real-world perception for active agents, proposes Gibson Environment for this purpose, and showcases a set of perceptual tasks learned therein.

An algorithm is proposed which leverages disentangled semantic factors to generate adversarial perturbation by altering controlled semantic attributes to fool the learner towards various "adversarial" targets.

This work proposes a HALO that directly maximizes the utility of generations instead of maximizing the log-likelihood of preferences, and suggests that the best loss depends on the inductive biases most appropriate for a given setting, an oft-overlooked consideration.
The results are packaged in the Greenfield Startup Model (GSM), which explains the priority of startups to release the product as quickly as possible, and the need to shorten time-to-market, by speeding up the development through low-precision engineering activities.
