abstract
World models play a crucial role in understanding and predicting the dynamics of the world, which is essential for video generation. However, existing world models are confined to specific scenarios such as gaming or driving, limiting their ability to capture the complexity of general world dynamic environments. Therefore, we introduce WorldDreamer, a pioneering world model to foster a comprehensive comprehension of general world physics and motions, which significantly enhances the capabilities of video generation. Drawing inspiration from the success of large language models, WorldDreamer frames world modeling as an unsupervised visual sequence modeling challenge. This is achieved by mapping visual inputs to discrete tokens and predicting the masked ones. During this process, we incorporate multi-modal prompts to facilitate interaction within the world model. Our experiments show that WorldDreamer excels in generating videos across different scenarios, including natural scenes and driving environments. WorldDreamer showcases versatility in executing tasks such as text-to-video conversion, image-tovideo synthesis, and video editing. These results underscore WorldDreamer's effectiveness in capturing dynamic elements within diverse general world environments.

MultiWorld is a scalable framework for multi-agent multi-view video world models that improves controllability and consistency over single-agent baselines in game and robot tasks.
VLA-World improves autonomous driving by using action-guided future image generation followed by reflective reasoning over the imagined scene to refine trajectories.
A memory-guided LLM harness that calls a frozen VLA only for contact-rich phases lifts success to 82.4% on LIBERO-Pro, 55.4% on RoboCasa365, and 58.4% on RoboTwin C2R with no policy finetuning.
GeoWorld-VLM aligns VLM image features with intermediate representations from camera-conditioned world models via fine-tuning only the encoder and projector, yielding ~4% gains on What'sUp and VSR spatial benchmarks across two VLM backbones.
TRAP is a tail-aware ranking attack that plants a backdoor in world models so that a trigger causes the model to reorder a few critical imagined trajectories and redirect planning while preserving normal behavior on clean inputs.
PILA aligns frozen flow-matching video models to a physics attribute bank via MoE experts and operational residuals, reporting SOTA physical plausibility on VBench-2.0, VideoPhy-2 and PhyGenBench while preserving visual quality.
