CausalWM: Causal Chain-of-Thought Reasoning for Embodied World Model

Ziming Xu, Shuang Liang, Ruobing Han +10

Embodied world models learn to predict future physical dynamics from visual observations and control signals, where physical knowledge is implicitly entangled within latent represe…

Causally Debiased Latent Action Model for Embodied Action-Conditioned World Models

Yufan Wei, Kun Zhou, Lingjun Mao +9

Action-conditioned world models (ACWMs) aim to simulate future observations conditioned on embodied actions. However, learning controllable ACWMs requires large-scale action-labele…

Uni-LaViRA: Language-Vision-Robot Actions Translation for Unified Embodied Navigation

Hongyu Ding, Sizhuo Zhang, Ziming Xu +13

Embodied navigation requires an agent to map language and visual observations to a stream of spatial actions that drive a real robot through environments it has never seen. The dom…

Learning Modal-Mixed Chain-of-Thought Reasoning with Latent Embeddings

Yifei Shao, Kun Zhou, Ziming Xu +5

We study how to extend chain-of-thought (CoT) beyond language to better handle multimodal reasoning. While CoT helps LLMs and VLMs articulate intermediate steps, its text-only form…

Learning Plug-and-play Memory for Guiding Video Diffusion Models

Selena Song, Ziming Xu, Zijun Zhang +4

Diffusion Transformer(DiT) based video generation models have recently achieved impressive visual quality and temporal coherence, but they still frequently violate basic physical l…
