Delay-Empowered Causal Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning

Many real-world tasks involve delayed effects, where the outcomes of actions emerge after varying time lags. Existing delay-aware reinforcement learning methods often rely on state augmentation, prior knowledge of delay distributions, or access to non-delayed data, limiting their generalization. Hierarchical reinforcement learning, by contrast, inherently offers advantages in handling delays due to its hierarchical structure, yet existing methods are restricted to fixed delays. To address these limitations, we propose Delay-Empowered Causal Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning (DECHRL). DECHRL explicitly models both the causal structure of state transitions and their associated stochastic delay distributions. These are then incorporated into a delay-aware empowerment objective that drives proactive exploration toward highly controllable states, thereby improving performance under temporal uncertainty. We evaluate DECHRL in modified 2D-Minecraft and MiniGrid environments featuring stochastic delays. Experimental results show that DECHRL effectively models temporal delays and significantly outperforms baselines in decision-making under temporal uncertainty.

Multivariate Diffusion Transformer with Decoupled Attention for High-Fidelity Mask-Text Collaborative Facial Generation

While significant progress has been achieved in multimodal facial generation using semantic masks and textual descriptions, conventional feature fusion approaches often fail to enable effective cross-modal interactions, thereby leading to suboptimal generation outcomes. To address this challenge, we introduce MDiTFace--a customized diffusion transformer framework that employs a unified tokenization strategy to process semantic mask and text inputs, eliminating discrepancies between heterogeneous modality representations. The framework facilitates comprehensive multimodal feature interaction through stacked, newly designed multivariate transformer blocks that process all conditions synchronously. Additionally, we design a novel decoupled attention mechanism by dissociating implicit dependencies between mask tokens and temporal embeddings. This mechanism segregates internal computations into dynamic and static pathways, enabling caching and reuse of features computed in static pathways after initial calculation, thereby reducing additional computational overhead introduced by mask condition by over 94% while maintaining performance. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MDiTFace significantly outperforms other competing methods in terms of both facial fidelity and conditional consistency.

Transferable Delay-Aware Reinforcement Learning via Implicit Causal Graph Modeling

Random delays weaken the temporal correspondence between actions and subsequent state feedback, making it difficult for agents to identify the true propagation process of action effects. In cross-task scenarios, changes in task objectives and reward formulations further reduce the reusability of previously acquired task knowledge. To address this problem, this paper proposes a transferable delay-aware reinforcement learning method based on implicit causal graph modeling. The proposed method uses a field-node encoder to represent high-dimensional observations as latent states with node-level semantics, and employs a message-passing mechanism to characterize dynamic causal dependencies among nodes, thereby learning transferable structured representations and environment dynamics knowledge. On this basis, imagination-driven behavior learning and planning are incorporated to optimize policies in the latent space, enabling cross-task knowledge transfer and rapid adaptation. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms baseline methods on DMC continuous control tasks with random delays. Cross-task transfer experiments further demonstrate that the learned structured representations and dynamics knowledge can be effectively transferred to new tasks and significantly accelerate policy adaptation.
