PlayWorld learns high-fidelity robot world models from unsupervised self-play, producing physically consistent video predictions that outperform models trained on human data and enabling 65% better real-world policy performance via model-based RL.
DreamDojo is a foundation world model pretrained on the largest human video dataset to date that uses continuous latent actions to transfer interaction knowledge and achieves controllable physics simulation after robot post-training.
RoboWorld introduces an automated pipeline using autoregressive video world models and task-progress VLM scoring, plus Step Forcing for long-horizon stability, to achieve high correlation with real robot policy evaluation.
SC3-Eval enforces three consistencies on a video model to produce policy rollouts that correlate 0.929 with real-world performance across seven vision-language-action policies and reproduce observed failure modes.
OSCAR finetunes Cosmos-Predict2.5-2B on a deduplicated multi-embodiment robotics dataset with kinematic skeleton conditioning, claiming better action following and significant correlation between virtual and real robot policy evaluations.
StressDream optimizes initial noise in diffusion video world models using VLM semantic and plausibility objectives to steer generations toward specified high-impact outcomes for improved policy evaluation.
RAW-Dream disentangles world-model learning from task data by using a pre-trained task-agnostic world model and VLM rewards, with dual-noise filtering, to enable zero-shot VLA adaptation in simulation and real settings.
A discrete diffusion model tokenizes multimodal robotic data and uses a progress token to predict future states and task completion for scalable policy evaluation.
MoE-based locomotion policy with RoboGauge metrics achieves reliable sim-to-real transfer, enabling robust quadrupedal walking on challenging unseen terrains up to 4 m/s.
The paper proposes an L0-L7 evidential ladder for evaluating world models in embodied decision-making, prioritizing interventional action fidelity and policy optimization utility over visual plausibility.
Semantic latent spaces from pretrained encoders outperform reconstruction-based spaces for robotic world models on planning and downstream policy performance.
