RBench
RBench (ReVidgen; Peking University DAGroup and ByteDance Seed; ICML 2026) evaluates robot-oriented image-to-video. 650 image-text cases:
- Task track — 250 cases: common manipulation, long-horizon planning, multi-entity collaboration, spatial relationship, visual reasoning.
- Embodiment track — 400 cases: dual-arm, humanoid, single-arm, quadruped.
Videos are scored by a VLM judge (GPT or Qwen3-VL) on physical plausibility, task adherence, and stability, plus operator metrics (motion smoothness / amplitude) from GroundingDINO / SAM2 / CoTracker / Q-Align. The paper reports 0.96 Spearman with humans. Companion training data: RoVid-X (4M annotated robot clips). License: CC-BY-4.0.
Paper: RBench. Code: DAGroup-PKU/ReVidgen. Data: DAGroup-PKU/RBench.
WorldFoundry reproduces official eval/4_embodiments and eval/5_tasks aggregation (option-to-score mapping, min-max, PAS and consistency penalties, amplitude filter). It does not run the VLM or the operator stack. rbench_overall is a WorldFoundry composite of the two track scores, not a published RBench number. GPT and Qwen outputs are never mixed.
