| # PAWBench A-09 ratio-control candidate-video staging (Issue #298) |
|
|
| Collaborator-writable staging surface for the A-09 model-level ratio-control |
| case study ([PhysEdit#293](https://github.com/Andrew0613/PhysEdit/issues/293), |
| execution issue [#298](https://github.com/Andrew0613/PhysEdit/issues/298)). |
| This repo realizes the `candidate_data` location proposed by |
| `staging_locations.json` in the #297 input package; it lives under the |
| `PhysEdit` org (public) by operator decision of 2026-07-13 because the proposed |
| `Andrew613` repos were never created and private quota was unavailable. |
|
|
| ## What this repository contains |
|
|
| - `candidate_videos/` — Seedance 2.0 first/last-frame candidate training |
| videos for scene A-09, named by frozen `sample_id`. The formal denominator |
| is exactly 200 rows (40 endpoint controls x 5 seed identities). Videos |
| appear here as soon as they are generated, **before** any usability |
| filtering, per the #298 upload-before-exclusion contract. |
| - `manifests/candidate_ledger.jsonl` — one terminal-status row per planned |
| sample (schema: `candidate_ledger.schema.json` from the #297 package), |
| updated at each phase boundary. |
| - `receipts/` — phase receipts, launch authorization (with live price quote, |
| provider schema deviations, and the fal-storage input-transport fallback), |
| and the hash-bound fal staging map. |
| - `review/` — canary visual-review contact sheet and motion strips. |
|
|
| ## What this repository is NOT |
|
|
| - These are **candidate training-data videos**, not PAWBench benchmark |
| inputs, not accepted training data (acceptance is a separate reviewed |
| gate), not model outputs under evaluation, and not evidence that any |
| training approach achieves probabilistic alignment. |
| - No usability decision is implied by a video's presence here. The accepted |
| bank and failure manifests are separate, later artifacts. |
| - No PAWEval result, checkpoint, metric, or paper-facing claim lives here. |
|
|
| ## Provenance |
|
|
| - Input authority: `Andrew613/PAWBench-A09-LastFrames` @ |
| `800521f1cc6332cd834632a1ecdecb81b17937e4` (normalized A-09 first frame, |
| 40 terminal-frame controls, frozen 200-row generation plan, frozen |
| Seedance 2.0 request profile). |
| - Generator: fal.ai `bytedance/seedance-2.0/image-to-video`, standard tier, |
| 720p, 5 s, `aspect_ratio=auto`, audio disabled, direction-neutral frozen |
| prompt. The provider exposes no seed parameter; planned seed identities |
| are sample identities (provider-returned seeds are recorded in the run |
| sidecar). |
| - Runner: `projects/pawbench/tools/a09_ratio_control/run_seedance_candidate_grid.py` |
| on branch `task/pawbench/0298_seedance_bank` of PhysEdit. |
| - Every video is hash-bound to its plan row (first-frame hash, endpoint |
| hash, prompt hash, request-profile hash) in the candidate ledger; |
| `SHA256SUMS` covers the uploaded files. |
|
|
| No credentials or secrets are stored here; receipts record credential |
| environment variable names only. |
