PhyGround - Optical: leaderboard
Metric: Human rating (1-5) of optical laws (shadows, reflections and light), pooled over (video, law) units, human ratings on a 1-5 scale from a quality-controlled pool of 352 annotators (after filtering 459), on 2,000 videos generated from 250 text-plus-first-frame prompts with explicit physical outcomes, each model at its released inference defaults; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Rough model projection: around 2026. 8 models tracked.
