arXiv:2606. 13053v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pretrained-feature world models provide a useful substrate for robot imagination, but visual or latent prediction alone does not determine whether an imagined future satisfies task-relevant events.

arXiv:2608. 11605v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World Action Models (WAMs) couple future visual prediction with robot action generation, enabling policies to model how the physical world evolves during interaction.
arXiv:2606. 01095v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) policies and World-Action Models (WAM) represent two increasingly important paradigms for robotic manipulation.
arXiv:2606. 15768v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action models (VLAs) leverage large-scale vision-language pretraining for semantic robot control, but often lack explicit foresight into how robot actions change the scene.
arXiv:2606. 28385v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in robot world models enable synthetic video generation for embodied prediction and planning.
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.
arXiv:2608. 06994v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World Action Models (WAMs) aim to construct a unified architecture capable of understanding world state evolution and guiding to generative motion planning.
arXiv:2606. 14778v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-term action anticipation (LTA) aims to predict an ordered sequence of future verb-noun actions from a partially observed video.
arXiv:2608. 03701v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World-action modeling has emerged as a promising paradigm for robotic control, as it empowers models to go beyond reacting to observations and anticipate how a scene will evolve.
arXiv:2607. 05377v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While recent Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models show promise toward generalist manipulation policies, they struggle with long-horizon tasks due to their Markovian nature-relying solely on current observations.
arXiv:2606. 26217v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Joint-Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs), including recent LeWorldModel (LeWM), have become a promising foundation for reconstruction-free visual world models.
arXiv:2608. 04765v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) models provide a unified paradigm for connecting visual perception, language understanding, and robotic control.
