How was Meta's Navigation World Model used to plan or rank navigation trajectories, with what inputs, outputs, limits and licence?

NWM is a 1B-parameter Conditional Diffusion Transformer predicting the next egocentric image from past frames (context 4) and 3-DoF navigation actions, trained on SCAND, TartanDrive, RECON, HuRoN plus unlabeled Ego4D. Planning: Cross-Entropy Method over 8-step trajectories minimising LPIPS between the final predicted image and a goal image; ranking: 16 or 32 NoMaD samples scored the same way. On RECON NWM planning reaches ATE 1.13 / RPE 0.35 vs NoMaD 1.93 / 0.52; ranking gives 1.83 and 1.78 ATE. Constraints (forward-first etc.) are enforced by zeroing actions. Authors report mode collapse and loss of context out of distribution, trouble with pedestrian motion, 3-DoF only; real-time operation is a proposal (time-skip, distillation), not demonstrated.
