TL;DR β WBench evaluates 20 video world models across 5 dimensions and 22 metrics.
WBench is a comprehensive multi-turn benchmark for interactive video world model evaluation. It contains 289 multi-turn interaction cases with 1,058 interaction turns for evaluating models across 22 metrics and 5 dimensions:
The benchmark covers diverse scenes, styles, subjects, and both first- and third-person perspectives, with four interaction types: navigation, subject action, event editing, and perspective switching.
You can download the dataset using the Hugging Face CLI:
pip install huggingface_hub
huggingface-cli download meituan-longcat/WBench --repo-type dataset --local-dir data/ --exclude "splits/*"
To generate multi-turn videos from a case using the WBench framework (as implemented in the GitHub repository):
from src.models import get_model
# Available: wan, kling, seedance (or register your own)
model = get_model("wan")
# Generate multi-turn video from a case
# case_dict should be loaded from the 'cases/' directory
result = model.generate_multi_turn(
case=case_dict,
output_path="work_dirs/wan/videos/case_1_combined.mp4",
data_root="data/",
)
βββ cases/ # 289 case JSONs (prompts + interactions + annotations)
βββ images/ # 289 first-frame images
βββ masks/ # 188 subject segmentation masks
