WorldAgen is a unified framework that jointly learns world modeling and action prediction using a shared Transformer backbone with two specialized heads. It introduces a Mixed Unidirectional Attention Mask to separate the world model and agent model, and enables Test-Time Training (TTT) by sampling exploratory actions and updating the world model with real state transitions. Experiments on CALVIN and LIBERO show that WorldAgen matches or surpasses state‑of‑the‑art methods, especially when TTT is applied to a few samples.

arXiv:2608. 06197v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training large language model agents for long-horizon tool use typically relies on interactions with real or synthesized executable environments, whose construction and verification are costly, or on external simulators that are difficult to ground.

Hierarchical World Models with Implicit Dynamics (ID‑WM) introduces a two‑level approach that separates state‑space reachability from local control. A high‑level model samples feasible transitions across the state manifold, while a low‑level world model acts as an inverse dynamics solver to translate these transitions into precise actions. This design enables planners to identify reachable subgoals without being constrained by low‑level execution details, producing novel long‑horizon plans that outperform state‑of‑the‑art policy and diffusion‑based planners by 38.5% and single‑level MPC by 135% in complex, unseen configurations.

arXiv:2606. 19990v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While RL has become a promising tool for refining world models, existing methods largely rely on conservative rollouts near the training distribution, limiting exploration, behavioral diversity, and richer dynamic discovery.
