REVERSAL-BENCH: A Reversibility Axis and Reset Oracle for Measuring the Reset-Free RL Cliff

A central goal of autonomous reinforcement learning is continuous policy training without external resets. However, existing paradigms largely depend on underlying environmental reversibility, a property absent in real world manipulation, where events such as pushing objects off tables or spilling granular substances cannot be undone. We introduce REVERSAL-BENCH, a benchmark that controls reversibility via a continuous parameter ρ∈ [0, 1] and provides a reset oracle, a ground-truth verification mechanism to test state recoverability across eight manipulation settings in five physics engines…
