Article Summary

Decision-time planning with action-conditioned world models has become a popular paradigm for embodied control. However, the standard planning cost judges a candidate solely by how close its predicted terminal state lies to the goal, leaving the realizability of the intermediate transitions unchecked -- a predicted trajectory can look convincing while the environment rollout drifts away from it. In this paper, we propose ACID, a decision-time planning framework that introduces cycle action consistency: the action inferred backward from a predicted transition by an inverse dynamics model should recover the one that was conditioned on. We fold this per-step residual into the planning cost via a scale-invariant adaptive weight. Across four action-conditioned world models and six tasks spanning rigid and deformable manipulation, articulated control, and visual navigation, ACID consistently improves planning and matches the baseline's accuracy with substantially less planning compute.
