KineWorld: Action-Induced Transport Fields for Embodied World Modeling
arXiv cs.RO0 views
arXiv:2610.06349v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Embodied world models predict the visual consequences of candidate actions before execution. However, existing action-conditioned world models often adopt uniformly weighted visual generation objectives that can be misaligned with embodied prediction needs. Even with explicit motion conditioning, these objectives can underemphasize spatially sparse changes that are critical to interaction. We propose KineWorld, a transport-aware world-modeling framework that extends robot kinematics from motion conditioning to the spatial allocation of generative supervision. Kinematic Transport Lifting (KTL) constructs renderer-derived, camera-aligned transport fields from commanded robot motion. Transport-Aware World Diffusion (TAWD) calibrates their motion support on the video-latent grid and reweights future-RGB flow matching through a normalized mixture of uniform and transport-focused distributions. We train KineWorld using ALOHA-AgileX bimanual manipulation data from RoboTwin 2.0. KineWorld achieves an EWMScore-P of 68.95 in single-view evaluation and a TWB-Score of 54.82 in multi-view evaluation. These results support a shift from appearance fitting toward action-consequence modeling for embodied decision-making.
