Dreamer-MC: A Real-Time Autoregressive World Model for Infinite Video Generation
๐ Introduction
This repository contains the Inference Code for the Minecraft Autoregressive World Model. This project serves as an open-source reproduction of the DreamerV4 architecture, tailored specifically for high-fidelity simulation in the Minecraft environment. Our model utilizes a MAE (Masked Autoencoder) for efficient video compression and a DiT (Diffusion Transformer) architecture to autoregressively predict future game frames based on history and action inputs in the latent space. This codebase is streamlined for deployment and generation, supporting long-context inference and real-time interaction.
Key Features
- Inference Only: Lightweight codebase focused on generation, stripped of complex training logic.
- Long Context Support: Capable of loading Long-Context models to recall events from 12 seconds prior.
- Fast Inference Backend: Built-in optimized inference pipeline designed for high-performance, real-time next-frame prediction.
- Infinite Generation: Supports infinite generation without image quality degradation during long-term rollouts.
- Complex Interaction: Supports a variety of interactions within the Minecraft world, such as eating food, collecting water, using weapons, etc.
