Stats from GitHub

LARYBench evaluates representations extracted from videos or image pairs, using action recognition and robot-action regression probes.

It compares information carried by a representation. A probe score is separate from showing that a robot policy can perform a task. Use this as a first read, not a recommendation. Open the original project before trusting details like terms, limits, privacy, cost, setup, or safety.

What it is

Extract, then probe

An extraction stage produces representations; classification and regression stages evaluate different action targets.

Why it stands out

Compare representations directly

The framework accepts latent-action models and visual encoders, rather than requiring a complete downstream policy for every comparison.

Availability

Code, metadata and dataset downloads

The public project provides extraction adapters, probe code and data instructions. The maintainers separately identify an unreleased Atomic Robot classification subset; public downloads do not cover every paper setting.

Why it matters

What makes it useful

To compare a visual encoder with a latent-action model, choose what the probe should recover: an action label or robot action values. LARYBench treats those as classification and regression tasks. They ask what information the representation retains, without establishing that a resulting robot policy succeeds at a physical task.

Notable points

What stands out

In their classification-data response, the maintainers acknowledge annotation errors and ambiguous action categories in human and robot data. They recommend relative model comparison under the same evaluation protocol, rather than treating absolute classification accuracy as a precise measure of latent-action quality. Their response frames a score through that shared protocol; it does not say a high number resolves the label ambiguity.

Before using

What to review

The repository lists larybench for several extractors, while V-JEPA, Wan and villa-X use upstream environments. Its model table identifies the environment and extra checkpoint paths for the selected extractor.

The repository workflow uses dataset inputs, metadata paths and extractor checkpoints separately. Prepare the inputs for the selected extraction and probe stages rather than assume one download supplies the whole run.

The repository identifies MIT terms for its code and separate terms for dataset subsets, and directs licensing questions to the original dataset sources.

Reader fit

Who may find it relevant

For paper reproduction, match the setting before comparing scores. In their reproduction response, the maintainers identify the Composite Robot result as the final epoch and name its evaluation config. They separately say the Atomic Robot classification LIBERO subset has not been released. Those are different settings: the released data and a best-epoch result should not be assumed to reproduce every paper number.

Editorial note

Why LifeHubber lists it

The current CLI selects GPUs separately for each stage: extraction defaults to GPU 0, classification defaults to eight IDs, and regression uses CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES with an eight-ID fallback when it is unset or empty. For a one-GPU setup, those are separate selections: --gpus 0 for extraction and classification, and CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 for regression. Choosing the extraction GPU does not configure the later stages.
