arXiv:2608.29061v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Offline goal-conditioned reinforcement learning (GCRL) aims to learn policies for reaching diverse goals entirely from fixed trajectory data. Long-horizon offline GCRL remains challenging because sparse goal-reaching signals must be propagated over many steps, while execution errors cannot be corrected through additional environment interaction. Existing methods address these challenges by improving long-range value estimation or reducing the effective decision horizon through subgoals, options, and action chunks. In several hierarchical methods, however, a selected subgoal specifies where to go, while the intervening state-space path remains implicit in an endpoint-conditioned low-level policy. To address this interface, we propose PathBridger, a hierarchical offline GCRL method that explicitly connects subgoal selection to short-horizon execution. PathBridger constructs a state-space bridge toward the selected intermediate endpoint and decodes it into a short executable action chunk using an inverse dynamics model. Experiments across the evaluated OGBench tasks demonstrate strong aggregate performance, with particularly large gains on the multi-object Cube manipulation tasks.
