Highlights

Infinite-World is a robust interactive world model with:

Real-World Training — Trained on real-world videos without requiring perfect pose annotations or synthetic data
1000+ Frame Memory — Maintains coherent visual memory over 1000+ frames via Hierarchical Pose-free Memory Compressor (HPMC)
Robust Action Control — Uncertainty-aware action labeling ensures accurate action-response learning from noisy trajectories

Installation

Environment: Python 3.10, CUDA 12.4 recommended.

1. Create conda environment

bash

conda create -n infworld python=3.10
conda activate infworld

2. Install PyTorch with CUDA 12.4

Install from the official PyTorch index (no local whl):

pip install torch==2.6.0 torchvision==0.21.0 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu124

3. Install Python dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

Checkpoint Configuration

All model paths are configured in configs/infworld_config.yaml. Paths are relative to the project root unless absolute.

Download checkpoints

Download from Wan-AI/Wan2.1-T2V-1.3B and place files under checkpoints/:

File / directory	Config key	Description
`models/Wan2.1_VAE.pth`	`vae_cfg.vae_pth`	VAE weights
`models/models_t5_umt5-xxl-enc-bf16.pth`	`text_encoder_cfg.checkpoint_path`	T5 text encoder
`models/google/umt5-xxl` (folder)	`text_encoder_cfg.tokenizer_path`	T5 tokenizer
`infinite_world_model.ckpt`	`checkpoint_path`	DiT model weights

DiT checkpoint: Can be downloaded from TBD.

Upload to Hugging Face (including checkpoints)

To upload this repo to Hugging Face Hub (code + checkpoints/):

Login

bash
1pip install huggingface_hub 2huggingface-cli login

Use a token from https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens (need write permission).
Upload From the project root (infinite-world/):

python scripts/upload_to_hf.py YOUR_USERNAME/infinite-world

Or set the repo and run:

bash
1export HF_REPO_ID=YOUR_USERNAME/infinite-world 2python scripts/upload_to_hf.py

The script uploads the whole directory (including checkpoints/) and skips __pycache__, outputs, .git, etc. Large checkpoint files are uploaded via the Hub API; the first run may take a while depending on size and network.
Create repo manually (optional)
You can create the model repo first at https://huggingface.co/new (type: Model), then run the script with that repo_id.
