IMBench: A Benchmark for Intuitive Robotic Manipulation
Humans combine reasoning and motor control to solve complex manipulation tasks under diverse constraints. They build an understanding of the physical world that helps them convert reasoning into actions and quickly adapt to new scenes, tasks, and rules. We refer to this capability as intuitive manipulation. Existing benchmarks fail to capture this integration: they evaluate physical reasoning in isolation from execution, or measure policy performance without requiring explicit reasoning. We introduce IMBENCH, a benchmark designed to evaluate intuitive manipulation as an integrated capability spanning perception, physical reasoning, action generation, and iterative execution. Our tasks req...
