PAWA framework enables panoramic world modeling for multiple agents in Minecraft

Researchers have introduced PAWA, a new dataset and framework designed for action-conditioned panoramic world modeling in multiplayer environments. This system aims to predict how the actions of multiple players influence a shared 3D world, even beyond an individual player's immediate field of view. PAWA utilizes synchronized first-person view (POV) videos, panoramic surroundings, and player actions from the game Minecraft, employing a dual-tower model with cross-attention and a novel quadratic-phase player encoding to achieve superior prediction quality compared to existing methods.

    PAWA: Panoramic Action-conditioned World Modeling for Multiple Agents

    arXiv:2610.20240v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A multiplayer world model must predict how the independent actions of several players change a shared environment, including changes outside a player's current field of view. A point-of-view (POV) video captures such changes only af…
