Referring Video Object Segmentation (RVOS) aims to segment referred objects at the pixel level in video sequences based on natural language descriptions. Existing methods typically introduce motion information within a unified cross-modal temporal modeling framework, where language cues are used for target localization and segmentation.

WALL-WM is a World Action Model that shifts video-action learning from chunk-centric optimization to event-grounded Vision-Language-Action pretraining, using semantically coherent action events as the atomic unit of learning. Existing WAMs commonly initialize from multimodal or video foundation models and then optimize fixed-length action chunks conditioned directly on the current observation and instruction.
