Researchers have investigated the effectiveness of hierarchical planning in the LeWorldModel for long-horizon goal-conditioned control tasks. Their extension, Hi-LeWM, freezes a pretrained low-level LeWM and adds a high-level planner over latent subgoals. The study found that temporal hierarchy does not inherently improve performance, with mismatches occurring between the high-level action space and search distribution at longer horizons. However, by constraining search and carefully timing subgoal execution, hierarchical regimes were recovered, leading to performance improvements over a flat LeWM. AI
