Abstract

World models are rapidly becoming a core infrastructure for embodied intelligence and interactive agents: they provide controllable simulators in which agents can perceive, act, forecast, and acquire scalable experience. Yet current video generation world models are still organized around isolated control interfaces, such as camera trajectories, robot actions, or hand-joint signals. This fragmentation is increasingly a scaling bottleneck. The central challenge is not the absence of controllable generators, but the lack of a unified and extensible learning framework that can absorb heterogeneous action supervision while preserving a shared model of world dynamics. In this work, we introduce Worldscape-MoE, a Mixture-of-Experts world model built on Diffusion Transformers for scalable heterogeneous action control. Our key observation is that different controls specify different interfaces to the same underlying world: although their representations differ, they constrain shared physical regularities, scene dynamics, and interaction semantics. Worldscape-MoE operationalizes this observation through modality-aware control injection, shared and control-specific experts, and a progressive MoE tuning strategy that supports continual extension to new action modalities. Experiments across locomotion, robotic manipulation, and egocentric hand control show that heterogeneous supervision improves rather than interferes with individual control capabilities. Worldscape-MoE achieves strong results on WorldArena, improves locomotion and hand-control metrics, exhibits robust out-of-distribution generalization, and demonstrates scaling behavior as additional control data and experts are integrated.

Motubrain: An Advanced World Action Model for Robot Control

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models generalize semantically well but often lack fine-grained modeling of world dynamics. We present Motubrain, a unified World Action Model that jointly models video and action under a UniDiffuser formulation with a three-stream Mixture-of-Transformers architecture. A single model supports policy learning, world modeling, video generation, inverse dynamics, and joint video-action prediction, while scaling to heterogeneous multimodal data such as video-only, task-agnostic, and cross-embodiment robot data. Building on Motus, Motubrain further introduces unified multiview modeling, an independent text stream for stronger language-action coupling, a shared cross-embodiment action representation, and an efficient post-training and deployment recipe for long-horizon real-world control. Our inference stack combines step reduction, compilation, FP8 quantization, DiT caching, V2A-style action-only inference, and real-time chunked closed-loop execution, achieving over 50x speedup over a naive baseline and up to 11 Hz inference. Experimentally, Motubrain achieves 95.8% and 96.1% average success on RoboTwin 2.0 under clean and randomized settings, respectively, attains the strongest reported EWMScore in our WorldArena comparison, and adapts to new humanoid embodiments with only 50--100 trajectories. These results show that unified world action models can scale in generality, predictive accuracy, and real-world deployability.

WorldDiT: A Unified Diffusion Architecture for World and Action Modeling

Many recent robot policies pursue stronger control by using large pretrained vision-language models (VLMs) as the action backbone. We introduce WorldDiT, a unified diffusion transformer architecture that couples action generation with visual world modeling and achieves strong performance without a large pretrained VLM action backbone. During training, a single diffusion transformer generates continuous action chunks and predicts normalized RGB patch targets from future camera frames. Across four LIBERO simulation suites, WorldDiT lies on the reported Pareto frontier for total model parameters and mean success among methods reporting all four suites. These results provide a strong sub-billion-parameter baseline for future scaling studies.

MultiWorld: Scalable Multi-Agent Multi-View Video World Models

Video world models have achieved remarkable success in simulating environmental dynamics in response to actions by users or agents. They are modeled as action-conditioned video generation models that take historical frames and current actions as input to predict future frames. Yet, most existing approaches are limited to single-agent scenarios and fail to capture the complex interactions inherent in real-world multi-agent systems. We present \textbf{MultiWorld}, a unified framework for multi-agent multi-view world modeling that enables accurate control of multiple agents while maintaining multi-view consistency. We introduce the Multi-Agent Condition Module to achieve precise multi-agent controllability, and the Global State Encoder to ensure coherent observations across different views. MultiWorld supports flexible scaling of agent and view counts, and synthesizes different views in parallel for high efficiency. Experiments on multi-player game environments and multi-robot manipulation tasks demonstrate that MultiWorld outperforms baselines in video fidelity, action-following ability, and multi-view consistency.
