Code as Worlds: Agentic Discovery of Executable World Representations for Physical Reasoning

2026-08-27 · Hanyang Wang, Yimo Cai, Weiliang Chen, Jiawei Chi, Haowen Sun, Qiyu Dai, Yi-Hsin Hung, Xingzhuo Guo, Jinshan Ren, Runmao Yao, Ziwei Liu, Mingsheng Long, Yueqi Duan, Jun Gao, Jiangran Lyu, Fangfu Liu, Jialong Wu hf

Physical understanding and reasoning depend on forming compact and generalizable representations of the world. While modern vision-language models can recognize and explain diverse physical events, they often lack explicit representations of the underlying mechanisms-such as object states, physical parameters, and governing dynamics-needed for reliably reasoning how the world evolves and responds to interventions. In this work, we introduce Code-as-World, a paradigm that represents physical worlds through executable world representations. By expressing physical composition, dynamic evolution, and visual appearance as executable code, Code-as-World provides a compact, quantitatively grounded, and controllable abstraction of the physical world. To construct such representations from multimodal observations, such as natural-language descriptions or real-world videos, we develop an agentic discovery loop inspired by abductive reasoning, where an agent proposes, executes, renders, verifies, and iteratively refines executable world hypotheses. As a concrete application, we use verified executable worlds to provide scalable physical supervision for training vision-language models on quantitative physical reasoning. Experiments show that Code-as-World-VL achieves state-of-the-art performance on QuantiPhy and surpasses leading proprietary models, highlighting the potential of executable world representations as a scalable foundation for physical intelligence.

Recursive Code World Models: Building Complex Worlds through Recursive Scene Programs

2026-09-10 · Zhiqi Li, Yuxuan Liao, Bo Zhu hf

Code world models represent worlds as executable programs, but this representation alone does not determine how to construct a complex world. We introduce Recursive Code World Models (RCWM), a framework for reconstructin…
