arXiv:2607. 10362v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Latent world models are trained to predict future states in a learned representation and are then deployed inside a planner that selects actions by simulating them forward.

arXiv:2605. 08732v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern vision-based world models can represent observations as compact yet expressive latent manifolds, but fast goal-oriented planning in these spaces remains challenging.

arXiv:2606. 20104v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Perception for action suggests that representations of the world should be shaped not by visual fidelity alone, but by their relevance for actions.

arXiv:2608. 09876v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Physically consistent motion planning remains a fundamental challenge in embodied AI, as generated trajectories must strictly conform to real-world execution dynamics.

In the physical world we inhabit, space and time are fundamentally continuous. However, existing machine learning paradigms for world modeling are largely confined to discrete-time prediction, thereby exhibiting significant inefficiency in capturing the dynamics of physical world.
arXiv:2607. 18715v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Latent world models underpin much of modern model-based control, yet current action-conditioned formulations supervise the next-latent transition with a single, undifferentiated target, forcing a monolithic learning signal to absorb every source of state change.

arXiv:2606. 16076v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multivariate forecasting in physical systems requires models that predict coupled temporal variables while preserving meaningful state evolution.

arXiv:2608. 11435v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Forward and inverse modeling of parametric dynamical systems requires surrogate models that are not only accurate for state prediction, but also informative for parameter calibration.

arXiv:2605. 00412v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: World models have recently re-emerged as a central paradigm for embodied intelligence, robotics, autonomous driving, and model-based reinforcement learning.

arXiv:2606. 01520v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A single action-conditioned latent predictive architecture can in principle be trained on the structured state of a driving scene, a robot workspace, or a financial order book.
