## πŸ“œ Abstract
​	World models aim to understand, remember, and predict dynamic visual environments, yet a unified benchmark for evaluating their fundamental abilities remains lacking. To address this gap, we introduce **<span style="color:#1F82C0">M</span><span style="color:#1CBF91">I</span><span style="color:#39C46E">N</span><span style="color:#149C7E">D</span>**, the first open-domain closed-loop revisited benchmark for evaluating **<span style="color:#1F82C0">M</span>**emory cons**<span style="color:#1CBF91">I</span>**stency and action co**<span style="color:#39C46E">N</span>**trol in worl**<span style="color:#149C7E">D</span>** models. **<span style="color:#1F82C0">M</span><span style="color:#1CBF91">I</span><span style="color:#39C46E">N</span><span style="color:#149C7E">D</span>** contains 250 high-quality videos at 1080p and 24 FPS, including 100 (first-person) + 100 (third-person) video clips under a shared action space and 25 + 25 clips across varied action spaces covering eight diverse scenes. We design an efficient evaluation framework to measure two core abilities: memory consistency and action control, capturing temporal stability and contextual coherence across viewpoints. Furthermore, we design various action spaces, including different character movement speeds and camera rotation angles, to evaluate the action generalization capability across different action spaces under shared scenes. To facilitate future performance benchmarking on **<span style="color:#1F82C0">M</span><span style="color:#1CBF91">I</span><span style="color:#39C46E">N</span><span style="color:#149C7E">D</span>**, we introduce **MIND-World**, a novel interactive Video-to-World baseline. Extensive experiments demonstrate the completeness of **<span style="color:#1F82C0">M</span><span style="color:#1CBF91">I</span><span style="color:#39C46E">N</span><span style="color:#149C7E">D</span>** and reveal key challenges in current world models, including the difficulty of maintaining long-term memory consistency and generalizing across action spaces.

## πŸš€ Setup

##### 1. Environment setup

- Follow [ViPE's](https://github.com/nv-tlabs/vipe) instruction to build conda envrionment, until ```ViPE``` command is avilable

- install our requirements under the same conda env (in the same above env.):

```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt 
```
##### 2. Multi-GPU Support
How Multi-GPU Works
- Videos are put into a task queue.
- Each GPU process take one task from the queue when vacant.
- If failed, the task will be put back into the queue.
- Progress bars show accumulation for all results.
- Every time when a task is finished, the result file is updated. You can obtain intermediate results from the file.

The metrics computation supports multi-GPU parallel processing for faster evaluation.
```bash
python src/process.py --gt_root /path/to/MIND-Data --test_root /path/to/test/videos --num_gpus 8 --metrics lcm,visual,action
```
- `--gt_root`: Ground truth data root directory (required)
- `--test_root`: Test data root directory (required)
- `--dino_path`: DINOv3 model weights directory (default: `./dinov3_vitb16`)
- `--num_gpus`: Number of GPUs to use for parallel processing (default: 1)
- `--video_max_time`: Maximum video frames to process (default: `None` = use all frames)
- `--output`: Output JSON file path (default: `result_{test_root}_{timestamp}.json`)
- `--metrics`: Comma-separated metrics to compute (default: `lcm,visual,dino,action,gsc`)
##### 3. How to order your test files
