原文アブストラクト
Reinforcement learning (RL) is increasingly used to post-train vision-language-action (VLA) models, but every update consumes robot rollouts that are slow and costly to collect, making sample efficiency a central concern. Manipulation tasks typically provide only sparse rewards, so a weak policy fails almost every rollout early in training and has little to learn from, even when those failures execute coherent behavior. Such a failure, however, is a success at a different task. We present Learning from Hindsight (LfH), which brings hindsight relabeling to RL post-training of VLAs by scoring failed rollouts against the tasks they actually achieved. A single vision-language model relabels both the instruction and the reward, proposing a hindsight instruction for a group of failed rollouts and scoring how well each satisfies it, and the policy trains on the relabeled and original rollouts jointly. Because VLAs generalize across language, relabeling in language lets the policy learn more from the same trajectories. On out-of-distribution LIBERO-PRO tasks, where standard RL improves only slowly, LfH achieves $5\times$ improvement in sample efficiency, and outperforms a dense progress-reward baseline. The gains hold across VLA backbones and on a physical Franka robot.
