+# RoboReward 8B
+
+**Paper:** [https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.00675](https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.00675)
+
+RoboReward provides **general-purpose vision-language reward model for robotics**, trained on the [RoboReward dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/teetone/RoboReward) with **Qwen-3 VL** to predict **discrete end-of-episode progress rewards** from real-robot rollout videos.  
+
+
+## Usage
+
+### Purpose
+
+Given a **task instruction** and a **rollout video**, the model predicts an end-of-episode progress score:
+- **1:** No success  
+- **2:** Minimal progress  
+- **3:** Partial completion  
+- **4:** Near completion  
+- **5:** Perfect completion  
+
+### Inference
+
+Follow the [original Qwen 3-VL instructions with video input](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct) and use a text prompt like this:
+
+```text
+Given the task, assign a discrete progress score reward (1,2,3,4,5) for the robot in the video in the format: ANSWER: <score>
+Rubric for end-of-episode progress (judge only the final state without time limits):
+1 - No Success: Final state shows no goal-relevant change for the command.
+2 - Minimal Progress: Final state shows a small but insufficient change toward the goal.
+3 - Partial Completion: The final state shows good progress toward the goal but violates more than one requirement or a major requirement.
+4 - Near Completion: Final state is correct in region and intent but misses a single minor requirement.
+5 - Perfect Completion: Final state satisfies all requirements.
