RoboPhys-3D is a 3D‑grounded embodied world model benchmark built on RoboTwin 2.0, featuring 50 manipulation tasks, 5,000 episodes, and 25,000 multi‑view ground‑truth videos. It evaluates video world models by processing both generated and ground‑truth videos through the same 3D reconstruction pipeline, allowing the separation of reconstruction‑induced from generation‑induced errors. The benchmark defines 50 metrics across four sub‑dimensions—pixel fidelity, 3D geometry consistency, state understanding, and task completeness—and introduces the Average Full Score and RoboPhyscore for holistic assessment, with RoboPhyscore showing strong correlation with human judgments.

RobotEQ-Video is a new video-centric benchmark designed to advance Social Proactive Intelligence (SPI) by moving beyond static image analysis. It introduces a hierarchical world-state taxonomy with 6 domains, 20 dimensions, 142 level‑1 attributes, and 816 level‑2 attributes, and includes over 2,000 videos annotated with 100,000+ human labels and 16,000+ behavior‑properness tags. Evaluation shows existing systems underperform humans, highlighting the need for richer video data and comprehensive scenario coverage in SPI research.

The paper introduces the World-Ego Model (WEM), which separates an embodied video into a background‐only world component and an ego component comprising the robot and manipulated objects. By using role‑conditioned attention and asymmetric query budgets for state prediction, coupled with a semantic‑routed mixture‑of‑experts diffusion generator, WEM disentangles the generation of scene evolution and instruction following. The authors also release HTEWorld, a large dataset of 125K training clips and 300 evaluation trajectories for long‑horizon navigation‑manipulation tasks, and demonstrate that WEM outperforms prior methods on this benchmark.

Mem-World introduces a memory‑augmented action‑conditioned world model for robot manipulation, featuring W‑VMem—a 4D wrist‑view‑centered surfel‑indexed memory that anchors historical observations to evolving surface elements. By explicitly modeling when and where scene elements are observed, the system retrieves geometry‑aware history frames during generation, providing informative, non‑redundant context for future action predictions. Experiments demonstrate that Mem‑World produces persistent rollouts, improves policy evaluation reliability (14.5 % higher Pearson correlation with real‑world performance), and boosts long‑horizon task success rates from 58 % to 72 % using synthetic data generation.

The paper introduces EgoGenEval, a benchmark that assesses visual generators’ physical consistency during ego‑motion by measuring Camera Motion Grounding and Scene State Preservation across 1,400 cases and 2,360 target views. It shows that current pose‑free models struggle to maintain both camera motion and scene state, and that pairwise supervision in training does not simultaneously improve these aspects. The authors suggest a trajectory‑centric approach that couples self‑conditioned rollouts with explicit pose and visibility supervision to address these limitations.
The paper introduces EgoGenEval, a new benchmark that assesses the physical consistency of visual generators under ego‑motion by measuring Camera Motion Grounding and Scene State Preservation across 1,400 cases and 2,360 target views. Experiments on 16 pose‑free generators and two pose‑conditioned references show that current models struggle to maintain both camera motion and scene state simultaneously. A follow‑up study using EgoGen‑Train demonstrates that pairwise supervision does not effectively improve both metrics together, suggesting the need for a trajectory‑centric training paradigm.
