Researchers have introduced a new training paradigm called Behavior Consistency Reward (BehR) to improve text-based world models. Unlike traditional methods that focus on single-step state prediction, BehR optimizes for functional consistency between the world model and the real environment by measuring the likelihood of logged actions. Experiments on WebShop and TextWorld demonstrated that BehR-based training enhances long-term alignment and reduces false positives in offline evaluation, while also showing modest gains in inference-time planning.
