Researchers introduce MemPlan for text-based planning with PDDL

A new framework called MemPlan bridges language models and symbolic planning for partially observable text environments. The system uses memory-conditioned PDDL planning to reconstruct problems dynamically from observations, candidate hypotheses, and interaction history. It assigns relevance-based action costs to missing objects or conditions and excludes previously refuted assumptions to…

Key points

  • MemPlan uses PDDL planning with memory to handle partially observable text environments
  • System reduces online token costs and improves task completion over LLM-planning baselines
  • Interface works across TextWorld task types without additional fine-tuning

MemPlan outperforms language-only and PDDL-aware baselines in task completion and step efficiency on benchmarks like TextWorld, ALFWorld, and Robotouille. It also reduces online token costs compared to LLM-planning approaches like ReAct. The same interface works across different TextWorld task types without task-specific fine-tuning. The paper and code are available on GitHub.
