Lifelong physical agents must reason over extended interactions where past events continue to shape the world long after they disappear from view. Beyond recalling what happened, agents must infer how history changes the current state and constrains future actions. Yet existing embodied and video-memory benchmarks larg …
Humans inherently understand the physical world through an active process. When sensory evidence is insufficient to infer physical properties, we naturally interact with the environment by deciding what information is missing, how to acquire it, and when sufficient evidence has been obtained. In stark contrast, existin …
Dexterous manipulation demands long-term foresight and rapid reactive control. Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, while proficient in high-level reasoning, often lack a fine-grained understanding of physical dynamics and spatial perception. Conversely, World-Action Models (WAMs) typically suffer from high inference l …
World Action Models (WAMs) use video generation models to predict future visual dynamics for robotic manipulation, but iterative denoising introduces additional latency for closed-loop control. We empirically find that visual content converges at different rates during denoising. Static background structure forms early …
