As autonomous vehicle capabilities advance, the safe evaluation of driving policies in long-tail scenarios remains a critical bottleneck. In closed-loop simulation, the driving policy model actively interacts with the environment, where its actions dynamically update the simulator state and directly influence the next set of generated sensor observations.

The paper introduces a reinforcement learning post‑training scheme that trains robot world models on their own autoregressive rollouts, using a contrastive RL objective adapted from diffusion models. It also proposes a training protocol that compares multiple variable‑length futures, a multi‑view visual fidelity reward, and demonstrates state‑of‑the‑art rollout fidelity on the DROID dataset, outperforming baselines on LPIPS, SSIM, and human preference tests.

SV-WAM is a surround‑view world‑action model that keeps all six camera views for autonomous driving while enabling efficient inference by discarding the video branch during deployment. It uses future‑video prediction as dense training supervision and introduces an action‑centered causal mask to prevent future‑video tokens from influencing action tokens during joint denoising. A differentiable drivable‑area compliance regularizer further improves safety by penalizing vehicle‑footprint corners that approach or cross drivable boundaries. Experiments on NAVSIMv2 and nuScenes show state‑of‑the‑art planning performance with low latency and strong zero‑shot transfer.
