Beyond Pixel Histories: World Models with Persistent 3D State

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2603.03482v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Interactive world models continually generate video by responding to a user's actions, enabling open-ended generation capabilities. However, existing models typically lack a 3D representation of the environment, meaning 3D consistency must be implicitly learned from data, and spatial memory is restricted to limited temporal context windows. This results in an unrealistic user experience and presents significant obstacles to downstream tasks such as
