LoopWAM: Closed-Loop Generalist Policy Improvement from Deployment Rollouts
Scaling expert demonstrations alone does not enable generalist robot policies to improve from deployment. Real-world rollouts contain successes, suboptimal behavior, and failures: imitating every recorded action can reinforce poor behavior, while filtering out failures discards evidence of physical interactions and their consequences. We introduce LoopWAM, a closed-loop world-action model that learns directly from this full quality spectrum, using rollouts from both itself and other deployed policies. Source-dependent noise sampling unifies behavior learning and action-conditioned world modeling, while quality steering and quality-weighted supervision retain full video supervision across qualities and regulate action imitation. Video and action tokens interact throughout parallel denoising, allowing learned consequences to inform action generation directly. On RoboChallenge Table30-V2, three deployment-and-training rounds raise success from 23.67% to 43.33%, a 19.7-percentage-point gain, with a final score of 56.80. LoopWAM also achieves 94.5% average success on RoboTwin 2.0 and 49.5% overall success on RoboCasa365 without additional embodied pretraining, obtaining the best overall results among the compared methods across all three benchmarks. On challenging shirt folding task, two rounds of deployment-driven improvement after single-task post-training raise success from 13.20% to 55.56%. These results demonstrate closed-loop improvement from mixed-quality experience under both multi-task learning and single-task post-training. Project page: https://loop-wam.github.io/
