SplitJEPA: Learning Invariant and Variant Latent Worlds without Reconstruction

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.12349v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding a dynamical world calls for more than a latent state that summarizes its observations: the state should also be organized into the factors that stay shared across related observations and the factors that vary between them. For example, a robot pushing a cube to a goal should take the same action when the camera shifts or the lights dim, since nothing in the scene has moved. Existing approaches to this decomposition commonly obtain it through reconstruction, so the latent variables must first explain the entire observational world before their organization can be trusted. Joint embedding predictive architectures (JEPAs) model the latent state directly and never reconstruct, yet no existing result recovers the invariant and varia
