Image-goal visual navigation is a fundamental capability for embodied agents. Existing navigation policies efficiently predict waypoint trajectories but lack visual foresight, while navigation world models can anticipate future observations but often require costly planning rollouts.

Long-horizon future-frame prediction is important for autonomous driving, traffic surveillance, and intelligent transportation systems, yet remains challenging due to temporal ghosting, geometry drift, and inconsistent object motion. Recent latent video diffusion models have achieved impressive visual quality, but directly applying them to structured traffic scenes often leads to unstable geometry and degraded temporal coherence over extended horizons.
Camera-only 4D occupancy forecasting enables autonomous vehicles to predict future 3D semantic scenes solely from historical multi-view images, which is critical for driving safety. Even though current methods have achieved good performance, the strong spatial-temporal modeling between the input multi-view frames is still underexplored, which limits the performance of those methods in future 4D forecasting.

Reconstructing humans and their surrounding environments in a globally consistent 4D space is essential for comprehensive perception. However, prior works typically assume single-view inputs or decouple humans, scenes, and cameras, making them unable to recover coherent geometry, stable motion, and physically aligned trajectories.
Synthesizing a novel-view video from a monocular reference video along a target camera trajectory requires both geometric consistency and motion fidelity with respect to the reference video. Existing methods based on explicit 3D representations are limited by the accuracy of off-the-shelf reconstruction modules, which often produce inaccurate geometry for dynamic objects in monocular videos.
