Neural world models coupled with model predictive control (MPC) replan at every environment step to bound accumulated prediction error, but this incurs substantial computational overhead. Reusing a cached plan reduces this overhead, yet its effectiveness depends on how prediction mismatch propagates through the local dynamics.
The Representation World Model (RWM) learns states, transitions, and executable plans directly within a representation space, bypassing traditional explicit dynamics models and action-space search. It uses inverse-dynamics supervision along latent paths to shape the representation geometry, enabling direct planning by constructing a latent path between current and goal states and recovering actions via inverse dynamics. Experiments on continuous-control benchmarks and robotic manipulation tasks demonstrate RWM’s effectiveness and potential for complex embodied control.
