Lucid Dreaming for World Models: Learning to Doubt Imagination and Decide by Trust

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.37156v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World models enable agents to learn and plan in imagination, but predictions beyond their experience can become unreliable and mislead decisions. Existing uncertainty estimates derived from predictions can remain overconfident on unfamiliar state-action pairs. We propose the Lucid World Model (LucidWM), which learns doubt from experience and propagates trust through imagination. By integrating Subjective Logic into categorical latent transitions, LucidWM distinguishes predicted outcomes from their evidential support and assigns each transition a degree of doubt. The complement of this doubt defines transition-level trust, which accumulates multiplicatively along imagined trajectories to reweight returns for policy learning and guide action
