arXiv:2608.23565v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: An interactive world model must follow the user's actions, remember the places it has shown, and stream in real time. The tension is structural: contro...
arXiv:2606. 09803v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present \textbf{Echo-Memory}, a controlled study of memory mechanisms in action-conditioned world models.
arXiv:2608. 07408v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study visual persistence in interactive video world models.
arXiv:2606. 10135v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transitioning bidirectional video diffusion models into an autoregressive paradigm improves the interactivity of video world models, but existing causal pipelines need many stages (control fine-tuning, autoregressive training, causal initialization, few-step distillation) and still trail bidirectional models in quality due to error accumulation.
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.
arXiv:2512. 02473v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Video world models have attracted significant attention for their ability to produce high-fidelity future visual observations conditioned on past observations and navigation actions.
GlanceWAM introduces a sparse test‑time imagination approach for world‑action models that decouples visual imagination from control. By asynchronously generating a single lookahead frame on a slow clock and decoding action chunks at a 48 ms control rate purely in latent space, it avoids latency while maintaining high success. The method achieves 72.2 % on the RoboCasa kitchen benchmark and 99.0 % on LIBERO, running 24× faster than synchronous baselines.
arXiv:2608.23383v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Video generation is progressing beyond isolated clips toward long-form narratives and interactive worlds, requiring models to preserve identities, foll...
arXiv:2606. 09811v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World-action models have emerged as a promising paradigm for robot manipulation, jointly modeling visual scene dynamics and actions to inject physical priors into policy learning.
arXiv:2608. 13492v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This report presents an improved version of AlayaWorld.
arXiv:2607. 19191v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present ABot-World-0, an action-conditioned video world model for real-time, long-horizon closed-loop interaction, supported by a multi-source data infrastructure spanning AAA games, simulation engines, and internet videos to learn controllable world dynamics.
Joint-Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs) underpin a growing family of latent world models for control from raw pixels, but every existing JEPA world model commits at training time to a single inference paradigm: either trajectory optimisation in a learned dynamics model, or direct behaviour cloning. A single checkpoint that serves both would defer this choice to inference, when deployment constraints (rollout cost, observation accessibility) determine which path wins.
