Cross-View World Models

arXiv 26.2 2026 69.7 method

TLDR

Introduces Cross-View World Models that predict future states from different viewpoints using multi-view consistency, enabling planning from any perspective.

Reasoning

The paper presents a novel cross-view prediction objective that enforces geometric regularization, leading to view-invariant 3D representations. Its strength lies in the innovative use of multi-view consistency for spatial grounding, but it is limited to a simulated game environment (Aimlabs) without real-world validation.

Deep Analysis

Innovations

  • Cross-view prediction objective: given a sequence of frames from one viewpoint, predict the future state from the same or a different viewpoint after an action is taken.
  • Cross-view consistency as geometric regularization to learn view-invariant representations of the environment's 3D structure.
  • Parallel imagination streams across viewpoints, enabling planning in whichever frame of reference best suits the task while executing from the egocentric view.

Methodology

The model is trained with a cross-view prediction objective using synchronized multi-view gameplay data from Aimlabs, an aim-training platform that provides precisely aligned multi-camera recordings with high-frequency action labels. The model learns to predict future states from the same or different viewpoints, enforcing cross-view consistency to regularize the learning of spatially grounded representations.

Key Results

Multi-view consistency provides a strong learning signal for spatially grounded representations, and the resulting model enables agents to plan from different viewpoints while executing from the egocentric view.

Limitations

  • Requires synchronized multi-view data, which may not be available in many real-world or single-view settings.
  • Demonstrated only on the Aimlabs platform; generalization to other environments or tasks is not evaluated.
  • The potential for perspective-taking in multi-agent settings is stated with uncertainty ('may offer'), indicating limited validation.
