LPA-CWM: A Learned Physical Adjudicator for Motion Reasoning with Counterfactual World Models

Read the original on arXiv AI →

LPA-CWM introduces a Learned Physical Adjudicator (LPA) to improve counterfactual world models (CWM) for motion reasoning by learning to weight candidate responses based on visual context and response structure. The 3.0M‑parameter LPA is trained on dense MOVi‑F trajectories while keeping the CWM predictor and intervention generator frozen. A new Completeness‑aware Motion Correspondence (CMC) protocol evaluates localization, trajectory completeness, visibility, and continuity, and LPA‑CWM achieves significant gains on DAVIS and Kinetics subsets.

Persistent Robot World Models: Stabilizing Multi-Step Rollouts via Reinforcement Learning

The paper introduces a reinforcement learning post‑training scheme that trains robot world models on their own autoregressive rollouts, using a contrastive RL objective adapted from diffusion models. It also proposes a training protocol that compares multiple variable‑length futures, a multi‑view visual fidelity reward, and demonstrates state‑of‑the‑art rollout fidelity on the DROID dataset, outperforming baselines on LPIPS, SSIM, and human preference tests.

PhysBrain 1.5: From Vision-Language Models to Physical Foundation Models

PhysBrain 1.5 is a unified vision‑language model that learns to understand physical environments, generate actions, and predict future states by encoding language, end‑effector motion, and dense visual targets as discrete sequences and training them with autoregressive next‑token prediction. The model is pre‑trained on human interaction videos and fine‑tuned on human demonstrations, robot trajectories, and simulated experience, achieving an average score of 72.5 across 28 embodied understanding benchmarks and outperforming other open‑source models on 14 of them. It also demonstrates the ability to produce end‑effector trajectories and predict future scenes with spatially aligned RGB, depth, and robot‑mask outputs.
