26
+ BEHAVIOR ESI-Bench is a comprehensive benchmark for evaluating embodied spatial intelligence across indoor scenes, object arrangements, physical reasoning, temporal understanding, and active exploration tasks. Built on OmniGibson and grounded in Spelke's core knowledge systems, it spans 10 task categories and 29 subcategories.
27
 
28
+ Unlike passive sensing benchmarks, ESI-Bench requires agents to close the perception-action loop: deciding what abilities to deploy—perception, locomotion, and manipulation—and how to sequence them to actively accumulate task-relevant evidence.

+ ## Sample Usage
71
+
72
+ To run the active exploration module using a task from the dataset, you can use the provided runner script in the [official repository](https://github.com/ESI-Bench/ESI-Bench):
73
+
74
+ ```bash
75
+ # Example: Running the Explorer for a counting task using the Gemini provider
76
+ python src/main.py \
77
+ --task counting \
78
+ --metadata "dataset/json_clean/Enumerative Perception/Spatial Segmentation/Merom_0_int/living_room_0/q_000.json" \
79
+ --provider gemini \
80
+ --model gemini-3.1-pro-preview \
81
+ --max-steps 30 \
82
+ --min-steps 1 \
83
+ --threshold 0.9 \
84
+ --results-root outputs/results \
85
+ --step-image-root outputs/steps \
