WCM (World Critic Model), presented in
WCM: A World Critic Model for Vision-Language-Action Reinforcement Learning.
WCM is a history-aware critic for partially observable robot control. Built on a lightweight LeJEPA architecture, WCM jointly learns to estimate the value of the current state and predict the next latent state, equipping Vision-Language-Action (VLA) reinforcement learning with a representation explicitly trained to capture temporal dynamics rather than merely regressing scalar returns.
