LGWM: A World Model That Verifies GUI Agent Transitions and Detects Hijacked Screens

Jiaming Zhang · hf · 2026-10-22

NTU, Institute of Science Tokyo, and Sony AI present LGWM, a decoder-free action-conditioned world model that predicts next-screen representations to verify GUI transitions. Trained on 1.85M real GUI transitions without semantic annotation, it reduces verification to a vector comparison and flags harmful mismatches. The paper argues safety is a property of transitions, not screens, and introduces RSWT-BENCH, where screen-only detectors perform at chance.
