Notice: This website is continuously updated as new conference proceedings and journal volumes are published. Consequently, the figures presented here may differ from those reported in our publications.


A brief overview of our methodology is provided on the Methods page, along with references to publications documenting our approach and links to the code and data used in each study.


The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates.

Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We compare our approach with state-of-the-art techniques alongside other ablations and show competitive performance in both stationary and non-stationary settings. Finally, we also investigate the discovered general value functions and through qualitative analysis show that the learned representations are not only interpretable but also, centered around objects that are invariant to changes across tasks facilitating fast adaptation.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 Object-Centric GVFs (OC-GVFs)
Open Source Code Yes We include all the relevant hyperparameters and implementation details in Appendix A.4 and open-source the code3. 3https://github.com/Somjit77/oc_gvfs
Open Datasets Yes Collect-objects Environment: is a customized version of the four-room gridworld environment similar to the one used in Veeriah et al.. Mini Grid-Dynamic Obstacles: For the experiments on non-stationarity, we used the Mini Grid Dynamic Obstacles (Chevalier-Boisvert et al., 2018). Coin Run & Star Pilot: are a part of procedurally generated environments called Proc Gen (Cobbe et al., 2019).
