PatchWorld: Gradient-Free Optimization of Executable World Models for Agent Environments

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2605.30880v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: World models for interactive text agents must typically be learned from observation-action trajectories alone. Specifically, the environment returns text observations after each action, but does not expose a ground-truth latent state nor an inspectable transition model.A research gap remains in how to induce executable code as a world model in this black-box setting for prediction and agent decision making. We introduce PatchWorld, a gradient-free framework that turns offline trajectories into executable Python world models through counterexample-guided code repair.Instead of predicting the next observation with a black-box model, PatchWorld induces symbolic belief-state programs whose action updates can be inspected, replayed, and
