EVA-Client: A Unified Data Collection, Inference, and Deployment Framework for Embodied Policies on Real Robots

Hugging Face Daily Papers Papers

Summary

EVA-Client is an open-source framework that unifies real-robot policy deployment, data collection, and evaluation through a component-decoupled architecture with inspectable execution workflows.

We present EVA-Client, an open-source framework for deployment, data collection, and evaluation of trained manipulation policies on real robots. Sitting between a policy server and the physical hardware, EVA-Client unifies the real-robot stages of the policy iteration loop within a single codebase. It makes three contributions. First, a component-decoupled architecture in which robot backends, inference strategies, and transport middlewares form an orthogonal grid: adding a robot or a strategy touches only its own layer. Second, inspectable execution through Debug, Collect, and Eval workflows, with modes ranging from open-loop simulation to continuous real-time control. Third, every evaluation run doubles as a data collection, recording full rollouts in training-ready format alongside exhaustive logs and a side-by-side comparison viewer, so each evaluation feeds the next round of training rather than ending as an unrecorded impression. EVA-Client further consolidates major real-time inference strategies, synchronous and asynchronous execution, ACT-style temporal ensembling, Real-Time Chunking, and a naive-async ablation baseline, behind a single configuration surface.

Abstract

EVA-Client is an open-source framework that unifies real-robot policy deployment, data collection, and evaluation through a component-decoupled architecture with inspectable execution workflows.

We present EVA-Client, an open-source framework for deployment, data collection, and evaluation of trained manipulation policies on real robots. Sitting between a policy server and the physical hardware, EVA-Client unifies the real-robot stages of thepolicy iteration loopwithin a single codebase. It makes three contributions. First, a component-decoupled architecture in whichrobot backends,inference strategies, andtransport middlewaresform an orthogonal grid: adding a robot or a strategy touches only its own layer. Second, inspectable execution through Debug, Collect, andEval workflows, with modes ranging from open-loop simulation to continuousreal-time control. Third, every evaluation run doubles as a data collection, recording full rollouts in training-ready format alongside exhaustive logs and a side-by-side comparison viewer, so each evaluation feeds the next round of training rather than ending as an unrecorded impression. EVA-Client further consolidates major real-timeinference strategies, synchronous andasynchronous execution, ACT-styletemporal ensembling,Real-Time Chunking, and anaive-async ablation baseline, behind a single configuration surface.

EVA-Bench: A New End-to-end Framework for Evaluating Voice Agents

Hugging Face Daily Papers

EVA-Bench introduces a comprehensive end-to-end framework for evaluating voice agents, simulating realistic multi-turn conversations and measuring performance across voice-specific failure modes with novel accuracy (EVA-A) and experience (EVA-X) metrics. The benchmark includes 213 scenarios across enterprise domains and a perturbation suite for accent and noise robustness, revealing substantial gaps in current systems.

EVE-Agent: Evidence-Verifiable Self-Evolving Agents

arXiv cs.AI

EVE-Agent introduces a framework for self-evolving search agents that ensure evidence verifiability by generating questions, answers, and evidence spans, and training on marginal accuracy gain of evidence. This improves grounded correctness without human annotations.
