Figure, table and section ledger

Editorial contribution type: Datasets, benchmarks & measurement (primary).

Layout extraction, not a required paper template. Counts are distinct caption labels; a multi-panel figure counts once. Section spans are estimated from heading positions, including floats and whitespace. Method and limitations.

Extraction notes: No attached appendix boundary detected. Zero means no recognized caption, not independently verified absence.

Section-by-section lengths and source pages

The title/abstract/front matter precede the first numbered heading. A span ends at the next detected top-level heading, not at the last sentence; end-page whitespace is included. References and statements are listed separately. These are not measurements of text-only or artwork area.

    Separate source files—excluded from canonical-PDF totals

    A separate author version may repeat main text and references. Whole-file lengths and counts are not extra appendix material and are never added to the canonical PDF totals. Read the study's source scope for which sections received substantive reading versus layout inspection.

    Separate PDF (or ZIP containing it): whole-file layout of 62 physical pages; 29 detected figures and 27 tables. These may include overlapping main-text material.

    Located appendix only: starts on physical p.1; ≈ 61.88 page-equivalents, 29 figure labels and 27 table labels. This interval is distinct from the whole file.

    Read-only audit 2026-09-26: restored actual supplementary section headings from cached PDF layout, excluding table-of-contents entries and retaining physical PDF page coordinates. This measures reading-order spans, not occupied text area. Roman-numeral captions are present; Figure I on p3 was visually inspected. Other Roman labels use source text coordinates, not independent visual checks.

    Argument and organization

    1. 3. WorldLens Benchmark

      Defines five evaluation aspects and their measurable dimensions.

    2. 4–5. Annotation, Agent, and Experiments

      Explains human scoring and agent training before per-aspect comparisons and insights.

    Problem, claim and contribution

    The opening distinguishes looking realistic from behaving plausibly, and explicitly reports that no model dominates every axis.

    Figure 1; §1 · Main paper · Additional source 2

    Argument and section order

    Stable aspect/dimension codes carry the taxonomy from definitions into tables and supplementary sections.

    §3 pp. 3–5; Tables 1–3 · Main paper · Additional source 2

    Figures, captions and visual explanation

    The annotation UI shows video, semantics, depth, and 3D boxes together; a downstream grid aligns generated-world defects with perception outputs.

    Figure 3 p. 4; Figure 6 p. 7 · Main paper · Additional source 2

    Tables, comparisons and evidence

    Action-following and downstream-task tables remain separate; the prose highlights poor closed-loop behavior despite more favorable open-loop scores.

    Tables 2–3 and §5.1 p. 7 · Main paper · Additional source 2

    Appendix and reproducibility

    The long supplement is navigable because each dimension repeats definition, formulation, implementation, examples, and analysis rather than collecting an undifferentiated gallery.

    Supplement §§A–E · Main paper · Additional source 2

    Clarity and writing conventions

    Human-preference summary plots show distribution summaries, and the limitations identify annotator bias and evaluator-model dependence.

    What to reuse—and what not to infer

    Transferable lesson: For a broad benchmark, use a stable taxonomy and a repeatable per-metric evidence template; preserve disagreements between dimensions.

    Boundary: Human-perceived behavioral safety and an agent's agreement with those ratings are not certified driving safety.

    Apply this lesson using the argument and evidence worksheet.
