RoboTrace Evidence Bundle
This dataset repository contains the public evidence bundle for RoboTrace, a low-cost deployment-stress evaluation scaffold for robot-learning and VLA-style inference pipelines.
The current release evaluates lerobot/pusht and includes reports, metrics, plots, summaries, and release manifests from a complete staged run.
What this bundle is for
Use this repository to inspect evidence from RoboTrace:
- action-trace stability metrics
- visual perturbation severity results
- symbolic instruction perturbation artifacts
- async deployment-stress simulations
- lightweight baseline summaries
- limitations and reproducibility notes
Why it matters
RoboTrace is relevant to edge AI and inference deployment because robot/VLA systems can fail from runtime issues even when the model itself is not being evaluated directly.
This includes stale observations, delayed frames, reduced control frequency, action chunk reuse, and action-horizon mismatch.
Run summary
Main finding
The strongest deployment-stress failure mode in this run was action-horizon mismatch.
Highest-risk scenario:
- Mode:
action_horizon_mismatch - Params:
{"actual_horizon": 8, "expected_horizon": 4} - Risk score proxy:
2.5562635495893855 - Mean L2 drift:
138.2900505065918

Scope and limitations
This release does not claim real robot hardware validation, real VLA policy robustness, natural-language instruction robustness for lerobot/pusht, task success-rate degradation, measured serving latency, or SOTA benchmark performance.
RoboTrace is an offline trace-level and simulation-level evaluation scaffold for producing reproducible engineering evidence under low-cost compute constraints.
