DIM-WAM: World-Action Modeling with Diverse Historical Event Memory
arXiv:2606.27677v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World-action models have shown promising robot-manipulation performance by jointly predicting future visual states and actions. However, existing methods mainly rely on short-term history and short-horizon future prediction, which is insufficient for long-horizon tasks whose correct execution depends on earlier observations and task progress.

arXiv:2606.27677v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World-action models have shown promising robot-manipulation performance by jointly predicting future visual states and actions. However, existing methods mainly rely on short-term history and short-horizon future prediction, which is insufficient for long-horizon tasks whose correct execution depends on earlier observations and task progress. Such temporally dependent tasks require effective use of complementary temporal information, including recent local context, cross-stage historical events, immediate future dynamics, and global task progress. To address long-term forgetting and poor awareness of the global task state, we introduce DiM-WAM, a memory-augmented world-action model that integrates multi-scale historical context, local future dynamics, and global task progress. The memory extracts compact visual event information from real observations, updates multiple memory banks through independent similarity-based merging, and then reads the bank-identity- and time-embedded long-term context to condition video and action denoising. A progress-supervision objective further encourages memory tokens to encode not only completed historical events but also the current task stage and its implications for the remaining task. On RMBench, DiM-WAM raises average success from 28.4% with LingBot-VA to 69.8%, exceeding the explicit-memory Mem-0 baseline at 42.0%. On four real-world Franka tasks, it improves average stage success from 70.7% to 91.5% and full-task success from 52.5% to 80.0%.
