FF-JEPA: Long-Horizon Planning in World Models with Latent Planners

Announce Type: new Abstract: Joint Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs) have shown promising world modeling capabilities, enabling planning in latent space by optimizing action trajectories using methods like the Cross-Entropy Method (CEM). These methods are, however, too computationally expensive and ineffective for long-horizon planning. Furthermore, these methods typically require an explicit image of the goal state, which is not always possible in real-world tasks.
