RoboFollow: Unveiling the Instruction Following Mirage in Embodied Agents

The paper introduces RoboFollow, a diagnostic benchmark designed to evaluate the true instruction-following capabilities of embodied agents. It highlights that high success rates in existing metrics may not reflect actual language understanding due to low scene entropy, where visual cues alone are sufficient. The benchmark uses high scene entropy, a hierarchical diagnostic protocol, and confound-controlled diagnosis to better assess how well agents follow instructions under varying conditions.

Real observations only. History before source connection is not reconstructed.

WHY IT MAY MATTER

This work is important for improving the reliability of language instruction following in embodied agents by identifying and addressing limitations in current evaluation metrics.
