This repository contains the model used in the paper Aether: Geometric-Aware Unified World Modeling.
Aether addresses a fundamental challenge in AI: integrating geometric reconstruction with generative modeling for human-like spatial reasoning. Our framework unifies three core capabilities: (1) 4D dynamic reconstruction, (2) action-conditioned video prediction, and (3) goal-conditioned visual planning. Trained entirely on synthetic data, Aether achieves strong zero-shot generalization to real-world scenarios.
