Researchers have developed new methods for long-horizon planning in world models, addressing limitations of existing techniques. One approach, FF-JEPA, uses a hierarchical structure with two forward dynamics models, including an action-free latent planner to predict subgoals, thus removing the need for explicit goal images and enabling planning over extended periods. Another method, building on a pretrained LeWorldModel, amortizes planning into a latent inverse-dynamics mapping, replacing iterative optimization with a faster, goal-conditioned inverse dynamics model that significantly reduces computational cost while maintaining or exceeding performance.
