World Models: A Comprehensive Survey of Architectures, Methodologies, Reasoning Paradigms, and Applications

arXiv:2606. 00133v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World models, internal simulators that learn the structure and dynamics of an environment, have emerged as a central paradigm in the pursuit of artificial general intelligence, enabling agents to predict, plan, and reason within learned representations.

WorldMind: Decoupled Game World Model for State-Aware NPC Behavior

WorldMind is a decoupled framework for state-aware NPC behavior in game world models, separating interactive world modeling into four layers: Understanding, Decision, Control, and Generation. It constructs a compact state from generated frames, reasons over it to plan NPC actions, translates actions into temporally aligned conditions, and synthesizes visual outcomes. Experiments on the newly introduced BOSS-140K dataset show that WorldMind achieves more tactically appropriate and coherent NPC behavior than baseline models in about 70% of pairwise comparisons.
