Neural World Models
Meta (FAIR) · Released December 2024
Navigation World Models predict what a robot's camera will see after a navigation action, and can plan a route by imagining trajectories before taking them. Code and weights are for non-commercial use.

04 Setup
How to run it
- 01Clone facebookresearch/nwm and install the packages listed in the README.
- 02Download the pretrained model.
- 03Use isolated_nwm_infer.py to predict the next view after an action or to follow a recorded trajectory, and isolated_nwm_eval.py to score the results.
