用时序逻辑构建通用任务表示，提升强化学习泛化与效率

Task guided agents demonstrate strong performance in a wide range of complex tasks. However, most existing task representation algorithms are tailored to specific contexts and struggle to generalize across diverse scenarios. Moreover, they typically depend on gradient signals from reinforcement learning controllers to update their weights, which can degrade both representation quality and learning efficiency. To overcome these limitations, we propose LOTUS, a temporal logic inspired universal task representation framework that can be seamlessly integrated into any RL algorithm to enhance agent performance across diverse task settings. Specifically, we design a novel task representation architecture capable of modeling relationships and extracting task semantics from LTL formulas. We further introduce a more effective update mechanism that treats the LTL encoder as a policy, thereby improving representation capacity. To enhance stability and robustness, LOTUS leverages the bisimulation metric, which provides theoretical guarantees for LTL representation, including behavioral equivalence, optimality fidelity, and trajectory robustness. Experimental results show that LOTUS outperforms most existing methods in learning efficiency, generalization capability, and representation quality. Specifically, LOTUS accelerates convergence over 20% in single-task scenarios, achieves a 15%-45% higher success rate in unseen manipulation tasks, and improves generalization performance over 25% in complex multi-task environments with increased sub-goal depth or conjunctions.
