This paper introduces WLA models, a new class of embodied foundation models that unify world modeling, language reasoning, and action synthesis within an autoregressive Transformer backbone. The approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on multi-task and long-horizon robotic benchmarks while offering test-time scaling capabilities for improved control. Notably, the prototype demonstrates the potential to learn novel tasks directly from cross-embodiment videos without requiring action annotations.
World-Language-Action Model for Unified World Modeling, Language Reasoning, and Action Synthesis
arXiv:2606.05979v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose world-language-action (WLA) models as a new class of embodied foundation models. WLA takes textual instructions, images, and robot states as inputs to jointly predict textual subtasks, subgoal images, and robot actions, conjoining the \emph{world modeling interface} to learn from extensive egocentric videos as in the world-action model (WAM) and the \emph{language reasoning} capacities to solve complex long-horizon tasks as in vision-language-action (VLA) models. At the core of WLA lies an \emph{autoregressive (AR)} Transformer backbone, instead of a bidirectional diffusion Transformer as in WAMs, to predict the \emph{next state}, comprising the \emph{semantic-level} textual intention and complementary \emph{fine-grained} physical dynamics. The physical dynamics are supervised by the world modeling objective based on a dedicated World Expert, and are leveraged to ease the characterization of the state-action correlation for the Action Expert. WLA leverages meta-queries to make the world prediction \emph{implicitly} impact the action generation so that the former can be disabled during inference. The world prediction can also be activated to enable test-time scaling for improved robot control. Our WLA-0 prototype, with 2B active parameters, achieves 40 ms per inference on an NVIDIA RTX 5090. Evaluations across simulated and real-world environments demonstrate that WLA-0 achieves state-of-the-art multi-task and long-horizon learning abilities, e.g., 92.94\% success rate on RoboTwin2.0 Clean and 56.5\% success rate on RMBench. WLA-0 also holds the promise to learn novel tasks directly from \emph{cross-embodiment robot videos} without action annotations.
