The paper introduces CoDeR, a new paradigm for world modeling that explicitly builds an executable world using code rather than relying solely on visual observations. CoDeR translates high‑level concepts into structured world rules, executable dynamics, and perceptual observations through five complementary roles, enabling long‑term memory, open‑ended interactions, autonomous world evolution, and persistent multi‑agent dynamics. Experiments show that this framework extends the capabilities of existing world models and achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance across multiple evaluation settings.
World in World introduces a training‑free, inference‑time interface that transforms diverse control signals—such as source‑video observations, target‑view projections, geometry renderings, and retrieved states—into camera‑ and time‑labelled visual states. These states are processed by a frozen causal video model’s self‑attention, enabling tasks like camera‑controlled rerendering, long‑horizon revisiting, and human‑motion transfer without additional training. The method employs a correspondence router and evidence‑wise attention to align token identities and regulate auxiliary channel contributions during a single denoising pass.
GameWAM is the first World-Action Model designed for native closed-loop gameplay and GUI control in modern video games. It jointly generates future visual observations and executable keyboard-mouse trajectories using parallel visual and action generative processes, block-causal conditioning, and flow matching. The model predicts gameplay/GUI mode at each step, handles heterogeneous native controls, and employs block-cycle control for long-horizon interaction, achieving competitive task success with fewer native actions than prior agents.
arXiv:2606. 02753v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video world models are a foundational generative technology for embodied AI and the Metaverse, yet existing approaches are inherently limited to a single agent observing from a single perspective.
The paper introduces Code World Model, a framework that decouples world evolution from visual rendering by using a coding agent as a world brain. The agent reasons about events, generates executable code to maintain persistent state, and a proxy representation links this state to a video model for high‑fidelity visual output. Experiments with MiniMax‑H3 show that the system can follow proxy‑based spatiotemporal specifications while preserving rich visual dynamics, illustrating a new approach to open‑ended world modeling.

arXiv:2608. 14530v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Interactive game world models typically autoregress visual observations directly in pixel or latent space, forcing structured properties such as pose, geometry, and occlusion to be implicitly maintained by the same generative sequence.

arXiv:2607. 18367v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Unlike conventional video game development, which relies on labor-intensive pipelines for asset production, animation, physics, and programming, video world models generate interactive environments from user inputs instantly.
TourPhysics is an online framework that builds physics‑grounded visual world models from a single image and a declarative physical configuration. It integrates deterministic simulation with video generation, separating simulator state, geometric evidence, generator controls, and appearance memory to produce consistent observations for exploration and manipulation. The system preserves the input scene, follows prescribed camera and object trajectories more closely than baselines, and reduces appearance drift during long‑horizon revisits.
arXiv:2608.30692v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Video world models are increasingly used as simulators, yet visual fidelity alone does not show that a model maintains the hidden state of the world. W...
