SidewalkBench - Conversing: leaderboard

Navigation policies drive a simulated delivery robot past a group of pedestrians talking in the middle of the path, which the robot must pass around as a group, in 100 procedurally generated sidewalk scenarios; the number is the success rate in percent, mean of 5 seeded runs. It isolates one pedestrian behaviour, where the long-route headline mixes them.

Metric: Success rate on 100 conversing-group pedestrian scenarios in procedurally generated scenes, mean of 5 seeded runs (%). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Rough model projection: around 2026. 8 models tracked.
