Researchers have developed a new method called Temporally Centered SIGReg to improve multi-task learning in world models. The original SIGReg approach, while effective for single tasks, struggles with multiple tasks by compressing latent space and causing representation aliasing. The new method applies SIGReg to temporally centered residuals instead of the marginal distribution, which avoids direct regularization pressure on task-specific cluster separation. This modification leads to significant improvements on the LIBERO benchmark, increasing downstream success rates and approaching the performance of large-scale pretrained models without external pretraining.
