arXiv:2606. 27014v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Joint Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs) have recently emerged as a promising paradigm for world modeling by learning predictive dynamics in a latent space rather than generating future observations at the input level.

Orthogonal JEPA introduces a latent world‑modeling framework that factorizes predictive states into orthogonal components. By learning basis matrices and dedicated prediction branches, the method reduces redundancy and improves gradient signals for less dominant predictive structures. The factorized states can be synthesized into complete latent representations for downstream tasks such as decoding, planning, or autoregressive rollout, and are evaluated across vision, biology, health, control, and molecular dynamics domains.
Neural PDE solvers provide efficient surrogates for time-dependent physical systems, but autoregressive prediction over long horizons remains challenging because local errors can induce distribution s...

The paper introduces a variational framework called VAMO that incorporates latent Markov dynamics for neural PDE solvers, aiming to improve long‑horizon predictions by mitigating error accumulation. By representing physical states as latent distributions and evolving them through probabilistic transitions, the method aligns learned dynamics with a spectral geometry induced by structured Gaussian perturbations. Experiments on fluid‑dynamics benchmarks show that VAMO reduces error growth and enhances rollout stability compared to deterministic and noise‑injection baselines.
