Abstract
Commonly, learning-based topological navigation approaches produce a local policy while preserving some loose connectivity of the space through a topological map. Nevertheless, spurious or missing edges in the topological graph often lead to navigation failure. In this work, we propose a sampling-based graph building method, which results in sparser graphs yet with higher navigation performance compared to baseline methods. We also propose graph maintenance strategies that eliminate spurious edges and expand the graph as needed, which improves lifelong navigation performance. Unlike controllers that learn from fixed training environments, we show that our model can be fine-tuned using only a small number of collected trajectory images from a real-world environment where the agent is deployed. We demonstrate successful navigation after fine-tuning on real-world environments, and notably show significant navigation improvements over time by applying our lifelong graph maintenance strategies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
