Title:Identifiable Token Correspondence for World Models
Abstract:Transformer-based world models have shown strong performance in visual reinforcement learning, but often suffer from temporal inconsistency in long-horizon rollouts, including object duplication, disappearance, and transmutation. A key reason is that most existing approaches treat next-frame prediction purely as a token generation problem, without explicitly modeling correspondence between tokens across time. We formulate next-frame prediction as a structured probabilistic inference problem with latent token correspondence variables, deriving a model in which each next-frame token is explained either by copying a token from the previous frame or by generating a new token. Our experiments show state-of-the-art performance on 4 challenging benchmarks. The proposed method achieves a return of 72.5% and a score of 35.6% on the Craftax-classic benchmark, significantly surpassing the previous best of 67.4% and 27.9%. We release our source code on this https URL.
