Discovering Reinforcement Learning Interfaces with Large Language Models
Reinforcement learning systems rely on environment interfaces that specify observations and reward functions, yet constructing these interfaces for new tasks often requires substantial manual effort. While recent work has automated reward design using large language models (LLMs), these approaches assume fixed observations and do not address the broader challenge of synthesizing complete task interfaces. We study RL task interface discovery from raw simulator state, where both observation mappings and reward functions must be generated. We propose LIMEN (Code available at https://github.com/Lossfunk/LIMEN), a LLM guided evolutionary framework that produces candidate interfaces as executable programs and iteratively refines them using policy training feedback. Across novel discrete gridworld tasks and continuous control domains spanning locomotion and manipulation, joint evolution of observations and rewards discovers effective interfaces given only a trajectory-level success metric, while optimizing either component alone fails on at least one domain. These results demonstrate that automatic construction of RL interfaces from raw state can substantially reduce manual engineering and that observation and reward components often benefit from co-design, as single-component optimization fails catastrophically on at least one domain in our evaluation suite.

Two Approaches to Building Collaborative, Task-Oriented Dialog Agents through Self-Play
Task-oriented dialog systems are often trained on human/human dialogs, such as collected from Wizard-of-Oz interfaces. However, human/human corpora are frequently too small for supervised training to be effective. This p…

Large Language Models (LLMs) are powerful reasoners in natural language, but their actions are typically confined to outputting vocabulary tokens. As a result, interactions with external environments -- such as symbolic …
