HandsOnWorld: Unconstrained Egocentric Video Generation with Camera-Disentangled Hand Control

We present HandsOnWorld, a framework for hand-controlled egocentric video generation that forgoes multi-view and marker-based motion capture, learning instead from unconstrained monocular video. Such generality is bottlenecked by the scarcity of scalable 3D hand annotations: large egocentric corpora lack finger-level labels, whereas precise hand datasets are confined to narrow, instrumented settings, limiting prior hand-controlled generators to restricted scene distributions. We instead annotate 3D hands directly on in-the-wild egocentric video through monocular reconstruction, introducing a protagonist-centered annotation pipeline that filters the reconstructions at the action-semantic, image-quality, and 3D-geometric levels to build EgoVid-Pro, a dataset of clean, protagonist-only hand trajectories spanning 103K clips and roughly 12M frames across diverse everyday scenes. To resolve the camera-hand entanglement induced by large ego-motion, we further propose the Plücker Hand Map, a 3D-aware control signal that extends Plücker-ray representations from camera rays to the hand surface, disentangling camera and hand motion at the representation level. Experiments show that \method surpasses prior hand-controlled generators in reconstruction fidelity and control accuracy, and generalizes to out-of-distribution everyday scenes beyond the laboratory datasets on which prior methods rely.

MemLearner: Learning to Query Context memory for Video World Models

Video World Models are interactive video generation models that predict future world states based on user actions and history video frames. A critical challenge in video world models is the lack of memory, causing inconsistent generated scenes over extended durations. Previous methods explored rule-based context frame retrieval as memory, but they fail to generalize in scenarios with scene occlusions and dynamic objects. We propose MemLearner, a learning-based adaptive context query method using query tokens to bridge context and predicted tokens. By leveraging the video generation model itself for context querying, MemLearner exploits pre-trained visual priors without training additional modules from scratch, and incorporates efficient strategies for training and inference. We collect a dataset of long videos with scene occlusions and dynamic objects, paired with camera pose annotations, and propose a multi-dataset training strategy leveraging both annotated rendered and unannotated real-world videos. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MemLearner significantly outperforms prior video world models in terms of scene consistency and memory, particularly under challenging occlusion and dynamic scenarios.

MAVIN: Multi-Shot Audio-Visual Generation with Narrative Control

While recent generative models produce high-fidelity videos, they struggle with the complex narrative control required for coherent multi-shot audio-visual generation. Existing methods suffer from temporal misalignment, limited controllability, and incomplete scripting. In this paper, we propose MAVIN, the first framework for multi-shot audio-visual generation with customized narrative control. To resolve temporal misalignment, we propose boundary-aware attention, which leverages hierarchical captions and boundary-aware token routing to render audio-visual elements within their respective temporal boundaries. To improve the controllability for multi-subject scenarios, we propose ID-aware propagation, utilizing identity embeddings and an identity-aware mask to bind specific identities to consistent visual appearances and vocal timbres. To provide comprehensive audio-visual narratives, we present a multi-agent scripting pipeline to transform free-form user inputs into hierarchical captions. Furthermore, we construct MAVINSet, a multi-shot audio-visual dataset for robust training and evaluation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MAVIN achieves state-of-the-art performance, opening up a new avenue for integrating generative models into professional filmmaking workflows.

Agentopia: Long-Term Life Simulation and Learning in Agent Societies

Humans learn from social life. Simulating this process with LLM-powered agents represents a promising research direction, raising a natural question: whether LLMs can learn from such simulated social experience to better understand and replicate human behavior. However, prior agent society simulations typically operate at the scale of days, limiting the depth of social interactions and long-term growth. In this paper, we study long-term life simulation and LLM learning in agent societies, with two goals: (1) investigating social behaviors that emerge from life-long simulation, and (2) developing anthropomorphic capabilities in LLMs, particularly intelligence in social life, through years of simulated social experience. Specifically, we present Agentopia, a comprehensive framework for long-term life simulation in multi-agent societies, where 100 agents autonomously pursue personal growth, develop social relationships, and fulfill their needs and goals over 10 simulated years. We define life reward to mirror human well-being, and leverage this reward to train LLMs via rejection sampling. Extensive experiments show that agents exhibit rich emergent social behaviors. Furthermore, life reward training effectively enhances the underlying LLM, which leads to improved agent well-being in simulation, and generalizes to downstream role-playing benchmarks with +15.6% improvement.

AnchorWorld: Embodied Egocentric World Simulation with View-based Evolution Customization

Despite being a pivotal frontier, interactive world modeling remains underexplored in terms of the versatile controllability required by practical scenarios. To bridge this gap, we present AnchorWorld, a framework that advances egocentric simulation through enhanced interaction integrity and a flexible mechanism for world customization. First, we utilize 3D human motion as the primary interaction modality. To complement the out-of-view or truncated body parts in egocentric views, we introduce an auxiliary training supervision that incorporates exogenous viewpoints decoupled from the agent's first-person sensorium. It allows the model to observe the agent's full-body positioning relative to the environment, facilitating a more robust spatial grounding of human-world interactions. Furthermore, we propose a simple yet effective mechanism for customizing self-evolving worlds. This is achieved by defining anchor views within a unified world coordinate system, coupled with textual descriptions dictating the dynamic evolution of local scenes. Experimental results show that AnchorWorld significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, while ablation studies validate the effectiveness of our key designs. Notably, our customization scheme exhibits promising spatio-temporal geometric consistency and adheres strictly to the prescribed evolutionary dynamics.

Edit-R2: Context-Aware Reinforcement Learning for Multi-Turn Image Editing

Text-guided image editing has advanced rapidly with diffusion models and unified multimodal foundation models. However, most existing methods remain confined to single-turn settings, overlooking the more realistic scenario of multi-turn in-context editing, where users iteratively refine an image through a sequence of instructions. In this setting, a model must follow each new instruction while preserving accumulated session-level constraints, challenged by two coupled failure modes: long-context dilution, where sparse textual constraints become difficult to recover from growing interleaved image-text histories, and state contamination, where earlier editing mistakes degrade subsequent generations. We introduce Edit-R2, a novel reinforcement learning post-training framework for unified multimodal models. Edit-R2 reconstructs the operative session intent, which effectively consolidates scattered historical constraints into an explicit reasoning trace before each editing turn. It further enables multi-turn RL over both reasoning and generation through a unified objective that jointly optimizes intent reconstruction generation in discrete text space and flow-matching image generation in continuous latent space, while a trajectory filtering mechanism suppresses corrupted rollouts to stabilize training under state contamination. To support systematic evaluation, we introduce MICE-Bench, a large-scale benchmark for multi-turn in-context editing with automated metrics for instruction following (IF), content consistency (CC), and global awareness (GA) over accumulated session constraints. Experiments show that Edit-R2 substantially improves multi-turn in-context editing and achieves competitive performance compared against strong baselines.

Geometry-Aware Implicit Memory for Video World Models

Video world models aim to simulate controllable visual environments, but long-horizon rollouts depend on what the model remembers after observations leave its native context window. Explicit memories retain frames or online 3D reconstructions, which can suffer from heuristic retrieval errors, redundant appearance storage, or reconstruction artifacts. Implicit memories compress history into a compact state, but existing designs are not explicitly constrained to encode cross-view scene geometry. We propose GIM-World, a geometry-aware implicit memory framework for video world models. A lightweight transformer encoder compresses variable-length history into fixed-size memory tokens, a camera-queryable geometry head distills 3D scene structure from a frozen foundation model into the memory during training, and an information-guided pruning rule keeps encoding cost bounded as history grows. The geometry teacher is discarded at inference, leaving a lightweight memory module. Experiments on MIND show that GIM-World better preserves long-horizon geometric and visual consistency than both explicit- and implicit-memory baselines.

DecMem: Towards Minute-Long Consistent World Generation with Decoupled Memory

Recent advances in video generative models have promoted rapid progress in controllable world models. However, maintaining fine-grained spatio-temporal consistency under long-horizon reasoning remains a key challenge. In this work, we move beyond explicit 3D memory and coarse frame-level implicit modeling, and propose a fine-grained, learnable, and scalable memory for consistent world generation. We first identify two fundamental limitations of naïve learnable memory architectures in long-horizon extrapolation, namely computational inefficiency and attention dispersion. Through a systematic analysis of attention dispersion, we propose DecMem, a decoupled memory architecture that employs Sparse Global Memory for efficient fine-grained access to global history and Anchored Local Memory for stable and high-quality extrapolation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DecMem significantly outperforms current state-of-the-art methods. By ensuring precise and efficient long-term memory and achieving superior extrapolation capabilities, DecMem enables minute-level controllable long video generation with high fidelity and consistency.

UniCustom: Unified Visual Conditioning for Multi-Reference Image Generation

Multi-reference image generation aims to synthesize images from textual instructions while faithfully preserving subject identities from multiple reference images. Existing VLM-enhanced diffusion models commonly rely on decoupled visual conditioning: semantic ViT features are processed by the VLM for instruction understanding, whereas appearance-rich VAE features are injected later into the diffusion backbone. Despite its intuitive design, this separation makes it difficult for the model to associate each semantically grounded subject with visual details from the correct reference image. As a result, the model may recognize which subject is being referred to, but fail to preserve its identity and fine-grained appearance, leading to attribute leakage and cross-reference confusion in complex multi-reference settings. To address this issue, we propose UniCustom, a unified visual conditioning framework that fuses ViT and VAE features before VLM encoding. This early fusion exposes the VLM to both semantic cues and appearance-rich details, enabling its hidden states to jointly encode the referred subject and corresponding visual appearance with only a lightweight linear fusion layer. To learn such unified representations, we adopt a two-stage training strategy: reconstruction-oriented pretraining that preserves reference-specific appearance details in the fused hidden states, followed by supervised finetuning on single- and multi-reference generation tasks. We further introduce a slot-wise binding regularization that encourages each image slot to preserve low-level details of its corresponding reference, thereby reducing cross-reference entanglement. Experiments on two multi-reference generation benchmarks demonstrate that UniCustom consistently improves subject consistency, instruction following, and compositional fidelity over strong baselines.

Think, then Score: Decoupled Reasoning and Scoring for Video Reward Modeling

Recent advances in generative video models are increasingly driven by post-training and test-time scaling, both of which critically depend on the quality of video reward models (RMs). An ideal reward model should predict accurate rewards that align with human preferences across diverse scenarios. However, existing paradigms face a fundamental dilemma: \textit{Discriminative RMs} regress rewards directly on features extracted by multimodal large language models (MLLMs) without explicit reasoning, making them prone to shortcut learning and heavily reliant on massive data scaling for generalization. In contrast, \textit{Generative RMs} with Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning exhibit superior interpretability and generalization potential, as they leverage fine-grained semantic supervision to internalize the rationales behind human preferences. However, they suffer from inherent optimization bottlenecks due to the coupling of reasoning and scoring within a single autoregressive inference chain. To harness the generalization benefits of CoT reasoning while mitigating the training instability of coupled reasoning and scoring, we introduce DeScore, a training-efficient and generalizable video reward model. DeScore employs a decoupled ``think-then-score'' paradigm: an MLLM first generates an explicit CoT, followed by a dedicated discriminative scoring module consisting of a learnable query token and a regression head that predicts the final reward. DeScore is optimized via a two-stage framework: (1) a discriminative cold start incorporating a random mask mechanism to ensure robust scoring capabilities, and (2) a dual-objective reinforcement learning stage that independently refines CoT reasoning quality and calibrates the final reward, ensuring that higher-quality reasoning directly translates to superior model performance.
