We present MoVerse, a real-time video world model that creates an interactively navigable scene from a single narrow-field-of-view image. This setting is challenging because the input observes only a small fraction of the environment, while interactive roaming requires a complete surrounding world, persistent geometry, controllable camera motion, and temporally coherent high-fidelity observations.

The paper introduces 4DStreamCtrl, a system that unifies camera motion, object trajectories, and depth into a single 3D point‑track representation, enabling joint control, depth editing, and motion transfer in a single forward pass. By mining in‑the‑wild video for 3D motion supervision and encoding it with a lightweight Geometric Motion Head, the authors train a causal streaming student that can generate arbitrarily long videos in just four denoising steps, achieving 20 FPS on a single high‑end GPU for 480p video. This approach outperforms prior camera‑only, 2D, and offline‑3D methods in motion‑control precision while maintaining temporal coherence over hundreds of frames, thereby enabling interactive 4D‑controllable streaming generation for the first time.
MUGEN is a large‑scale real‑world dataset of over 1,300 hours of 4K panoramic videos with rich semantic and geometric annotations, designed to support interactive 360° world exploration. Wan360 is a camera‑controllable panoramic video generation model built on MUGEN, featuring ERP‑aware components (periodic longitude RoPE, ERP‑aware padding, random roll yaw) and a panoramic Plücker embedding for camera motion. Together, they address gaps in data and model support for immersive, temporally coherent 360° video generation along user‑specified camera trajectories.

Novel view rendering of large and complex reconstructed scenes is becoming increasingly photorealistic. However, most reconstructions remain static and lack the ambient motion that makes environments immersive.
SpatialCrafter introduces a two‑stage framework for single‑image world modeling that first generates a global 3D proxy using a Point‑anchored Sparse Structure Flow module, then refines appearance with a Generative Deferred Refiner built on a video diffusion model. The method incorporates Parallel Geometry Injection and Proxy‑Aware Corruption training to integrate the proxy without disrupting the pretrained generative manifold, and it is evaluated on a newly constructed dataset of 115K scenes. Experiments demonstrate that SpatialCrafter outperforms existing approaches, reducing long‑term drift and maintaining consistency under rapid camera motion and extreme viewpoints.
RoGe is a new end‑to‑end framework for novel view synthesis that jointly learns an implicit 3D scene representation and a video diffusion model. It eliminates the need for explicit 3D intermediates by querying the implicit scene with camera rays to produce geometric features that condition the diffusion model. Experiments on DL3DV show that RoGe surpasses reconstruction‑based, generation‑based, and hybrid baselines in image quality and temporal consistency, and ablations confirm the benefits of ray‑queried features and joint training.
