World Action Verifier: Self-Improving World Models via Forward-Inverse Asymmetry

ArXi:2604.01985v1 Announce Type: new General-purpose world models promise scalable policy evaluation, optimization, and planning, yet achieving the required level of robustness remains challenging. Unlike policy learning, which primarily focuses on optimal actions, a world model must be reliable over a much broader range of suboptimal actions, which are often insufficiently covered by action-labeled interaction data. To address this challenge, we propose World Action Verifier (WAV), a framework that enables world models to identify their own prediction errors and self-improve.
