SidewalkBench - Frontal Approaching: leaderboard

Navigation policies drive a simulated delivery robot past a pedestrian walking straight at the robot, 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 frontal-approaching pedestrian scenarios in procedurally generated scenes, mean of 5 seeded runs (%). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Rough model projection: around 2026. 8 models tracked.
