VLABench

On this page

VLABench (OpenMOSS, Fudan University) benchmarks language-conditioned manipulation that needs world knowledge and multi-step reasoning, not just instruction following. Official size: 100 task categories and 2,000+ objects in MuJoCo, probing mesh / texture understanding, spatial and semantic reasoning, physical-law understanding, and long-horizon planning for both VLA policies and VLM planners.

WorldFoundry is an official-results importer. Simulator execution, policy loading, and rollout collection stay upstream. Scorecard primary: success_rate.
