DynaVieW: Schema-Guided World Modeling for Understanding Hierarchical Visual Dynamics

arXiv:2607.04112v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal LLMs struggle to systematically model the temporal evolution of visual scenes in videos or multi-image sequences. Such inputs require models to predict or simulate multiple levels of dynamic constituents, such as actions taken in the visual sequence, and the associated changes to the visual environment that result. To address this challenge, we propose a dynamic schema-guided world model, DynaVieW, optimized for visual dynamic prediction and simulation. DynaVieW achieves an in-depth understanding of visual dynamics by learning interl

Why this matters
