摘要
Large language model (LLM) agents that follow the sequential “reason-then-act” paradigm have achieved superior performance in many complex tasks. However, these methods suffer from limited exploration and incomplete environmental understanding, as they interact with only a single environment per step. In this paper, we first introduce a novel paradigm that enables an agent to interact with multiple environments simultaneously and share cross-trajectory experiences. Build upon this paradigm, we further propose Diverse Parallel Exploration Policy Optimization (DPEPO), a reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm that encourages the agent to perform diverse parallel exploration. There are two stages in DPEPO: initial supervised fine-tuning (SFT) imparts basic parallel reasoning and action generation, followed by reinforcement learning stage with a hierarchical reward scheme. We design a parallel trajectory-level success reward and two step-level rewards: Diverse Action Reward and Diverse State Transition Reward, which actively penalize behavioral redundancy and promote broad exploration. Extensive experiments on ALFWorld and ScienceWorld show that DPEPO achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) success rates, while maintaining comparable efficiency to strong sequential baselines.

DPEPO: Diverse Parallel Exploration Policy Optimization for LLM-based Agents
Large language model (LLM) agents that follow the sequential “reason-then-act” paradigm have achieved superior performance in many complex tasks.
