Methodology
The proposed framework uses a dual-autoregressive mechanism and self-supervised training to learn world models that capture complex, partially observable, and stochastic dynamics. It avoids domain-specific inductive biases to ensure adaptability across diverse robotic tasks. The policy optimization framework trains policies in imagined environments generated by the world model and deploys them seamlessly in real-world systems.
