arXiv:2608. 07420v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World models are expected to support imagination over extended temporal horizons, yet most are still trained through local few-step prediction objectives and deployed by recursively rolling out their own predictions.

The paper introduces CSWAM, a Causal Semantic World Action Model that enhances FastWAM by integrating a causal semantic expert based on V-JEPA 2.1. This expert provides temporally grounded, appearance‑agnostic representations of semantic state changes and motion, leveraging sparse observation history and causal attention to improve action‑only inference. Experiments on simulation and real‑robot tasks show that CSWAM significantly boosts out‑of‑distribution generalization, raising success rates from 10.16% to 45.18% on RoboTwin 2.0 and from 27.5% to 70.0% across real‑robot tasks.

MT‑WAM enhances the Fast‑WAM framework by adding complementary supervision for future 2‑D point trajectories and visual features while keeping the original training objectives. A lightweight dual‑stream branch and structured attention mask isolate motion‑specific processing, and motion‑stream tokens provide additional dynamics cues to the action expert. During inference, MT‑WAM skips future‑video prediction, using cached video and motion information to achieve higher success rates on LIBERO, LIBERO‑Plus, RoboTwin 2.0 Clean2Rand, and several real‑world tasks.
