arXiv:2610.16558v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World models capture environment dynamics and support counterfactual reasoning for planning. In image-goal navigation, where the target often lies beyond the current field of view, the agent must not only model environmental dynamics but also maintain a persistent spatial memory of the scene. Existing approaches either introduce spatial context by fine-tuning pretrained models on the target task, which underexploits their spatial priors, or rely on external 3D reconstruction, which is computationally expensive for real-world deployment.
