Model-assisted reading · independent evidence and bilingual editorial review pending. Values are source findings or inventory counts, separate from the trend result series.
Source-bound observations (2)
Counts, rates and contrasts have different units. A sample count is not a number of independent experiments. Unknown numerators and interval levels remain unknown.

Task and measurement
Benchmark protocol profile
- Task / subject
- The protocol covers 13 safety categories, 66 base scenarios and five embodiments. Language and visual variations overlay the base scenarios. Outcomes separate safe success, safe failure, unsafe success and unsafe failure, with cumulative safety cost and exposure measures.
- Measurement target
- How do structural, language and visual perturbations affect embodied safety?
- Interpretation boundary
- Overlay variants are not additional independent base tasks. Results depend on simulation safety thresholds and the evaluated embodiments.
Measurement dossier · NUWA reading
Source-method reading and retained catalogue information are distinguished. Publication does not establish independent evidence or bilingual editorial review.
- Measurement construct
- How do structural, language and visual perturbations affect embodied safety?
- Task population
- The protocol covers 13 safety categories, 66 base scenarios and five embodiments. Language and visual variations overlay the base scenarios. Outcomes separate safe success, safe failure, unsafe success and unsafe failure, with cumulative safety cost and exposure measures.
- Scoring and failure modes
- Retain safe/unsafe success/failure and process-cost components. Language and visual overlays are not extra independent base scenarios.
- System conditions
- Source-specific interfaces and constructed task conditions; this reading does not establish matched comparability with other protocols.
- Statistical meaning
- Retain per-metric population, repeats and interval definitions from the record evidence table. Missing event numerators remain unknown.
- Validity and interpretation
- Overlay variants are not additional independent base tasks. Results depend on simulation safety thresholds and the evaluated embodiments.
- Appropriate research use
- NUWA recommendation: Compare safety components within a shared embodiment and configuration, preserving base-scenario and perturbation identities.
