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.

KeyGen is a framework that learns canonical 3D keypoints from point clouds to create structured, object‑centric representations for policy learning in robotic manipulation. By conditioning a visuomotor diffusion policy on these keypoints and object geometry, it predicts full manipulation trajectories that maintain geometric correspondence across different object instances. Experiments on a photorealistic simulation benchmark with three tasks show that KeyGen outperforms prior methods on both seen and unseen objects, scales with more demonstrations, remains robust to rescaling, and performs well in real‑world manipulation.
arXiv:2602. 06219v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: World models offer a promising avenue for more faithfully capturing complex dynamics, including contacts and non-rigidity, as well as complex sensory information, such as visual perception, in situations where standard simulators struggle.
