+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.

+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this

+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

+GroundAnything's main results use **entropy-guided decoding**; GroundAnything-VLM uses **autoregressive decoding**. Self-speculative decoding is an optional acceleration mode.
 
-**Evaluation data: XXX — download URL coming soon.**
+## Evaluation
 
-The shared evaluation toolkit provides **42 task recipes across eight task families**: Grounding, Referring, Dense, OCR, Layout, GUI, Pointing, and VisualPrompt. These are executable task/split recipes, not a count of distinct datasets. Dataset paths are registered in `configs/datasets.yaml`; task IDs are listed in `configs/eval/tasks.json`.
+The evaluation toolkit supports **7 modes**:
 
-### Evaluation Modes
-
-The evaluator accepts seven mode identifiers. A mode selects the **prompt and output parser** independently of the inference engine and decoding algorithm.
-
-| Mode | Supported evaluation interface | Output / coordinates |
-|:---|:---|:---|
-| **`GAM`** | **GroundingPI, GroundAnything, and GroundAnything-VLM** | Native spatial tokens, **0–999** |

-| `RLV2` | Compatible RL-checkpoint alias | Same GAM spatial-token protocol |
-| `VLM` | Generic VLM baselines | Explicit pixel, 0–1000, or 0–1 coordinate mode |
-| `REXOMNI` | Rex-Omni adapter | Model-specific spatial-token parser |

-**Use `mode: GAM` for all three of our checkpoints.** The `-VLM` suffix identifies an autoregressive checkpoint; it does not select the evaluator's generic `VLM` mode. The DLM's entropy-guided or self-speculative algorithm is selected separately through `decoder`.
+**All three released checkpoints use GAM mode.**
 
-External baseline weights and model services are separate from the evaluation toolkit. Metrics remain task-specific: box localization quality, point accuracy, OCR text-and-region matching, GUI grounding accuracy, and counting error. Full protocols and benchmark tables are provided in the paper and supplementary material.

-Run the commands from the **GroundAnything source repository root** after obtaining the code package, using **Linux x86_64 and Python 3.12**. The code link above is reserved for the public release. Use the serving profile in the supplied source bundle so that the custom model adapter, decoding implementation, and dependencies remain aligned.

 The model uses its own shared weights to draft tokens with bidirectional attention and verify them with causal attention. Verification accepts the **longest consecutive matching prefix**, stops at the first mismatch, applies the causal correction, and discards the rejected suffix cache states. The shipped speculative route uses greedy verification; it is not a general stochastic speculative sampler.

 The documented `--decoder speculative` service is the linear shared-weight route. Exact greedy verification is relative to the converted model's causal branch; it does not imply identical outputs to the separately trained GroundAnything-VLM checkpoint.
 
-### Benchmark Sampling Policy
-
-Entropy-guided evaluation applies the five task profiles from `infer/decode/configs/task_profiles.json`:
-
-| Task profile | Recipes | Temperature | Top-p | Output-token budget |
-|:---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
-| Strict single target | 14 | 0 | 1 | 512 |
-| Medium, non-OCR | 12 | 0.1 | 0.95 | 4,096 |
-| Dense, non-OCR | 8 | 0.1 | 0.95 | 8,192 |
-| Medium OCR | 4 | 0.3 | 0.95 | 4,096 |
-| Dense OCR | 4 | 0 | 1 | 4,096 |
-
-The evaluator sends outer sampling parameters and the nested `custom_params.gam_dlm_decode` contract, adds the strict-single-target policy when required, and checks the server's actual decoder before sending requests. Unknown task profiles and mismatched decoders fail early. The entropy-guided benchmark policy rejects a global `max_tokens` override because it would replace the task budgets.
-
-Self-speculative evaluation uses greedy sampling (`temperature=0`, `top_p=1`, repetition penalty 1). GroundAnything-VLM retains its own autoregressive task recipes. All of these routes use **GAM** prompts and spatial-token parsing.

-### Run Evaluation
-
-```bash
-python3 run.py setup eval
-
-# Match the command to the service that is already running.
-python3 run.py eval --decoder denoise
-python3 run.py eval --decoder speculative
-python3 run.py eval --config configs/eval/vlm.yaml
-```
-
-Choose one evaluation command for the intended checkpoint/decoder:
-
-| Checkpoint / decoder | Recipe | Mode | Endpoint model ID |
-|:---|:---|:---|:---|
-| GroundAnything / entropy-guided | `configs/eval/dlm.yaml` | **GAM** | `groundinganything` |
-| GroundAnything / self-speculative | `configs/eval/dlm_speculative.yaml` | **GAM** | `groundinganything` |
-| GroundAnything-VLM / autoregressive | `configs/eval/vlm.yaml` | **GAM** | `groundinganything-vlm` |
-
-Use `service_contract: openai` and the corresponding port (8101 for DLM, 8102 for VLM). For a preflight that checks configured inputs without sending inference requests:
-
-```bash
-.venv-eval/bin/python scripts/evaluate.py configs/eval/dlm.yaml --dry-run
-```
-
-Configure the running service, `data_root`, dataset registry, task list, and a fresh `run_id` before launching. The default `limit: 8` is a smoke test; set **`limit: null`** for full evaluation. Evaluation connects to an existing service and does not start or change the decoder.
-
-Each run saves `run.json` (configuration and provenance), `responses.jsonl` (raw responses, finish reasons, and token usage), task logs, and `summary.json` (metrics and completion state). Record the checkpoint revision and task configuration when comparing results.

 ## Inference Infrastructure
 
 ### SGLang Execution
 
 The custom SGLang integration coordinates model loading, request scheduling, attention kernels, and KV-cache ownership for blockwise generation. Denoising uses bidirectional attention inside the active block; completed history is retained as causal KV. Self-speculation additionally verifies proposals and removes rejected suffix states. These cache semantics must be preserved when optimizing execution.
 
-The supplied recipe selects **BF16 + Triton attention + eager execution**. DLM recipes record the engine source, decoder, effective settings, profile digest, and package versions in `outputs/sglang/<decoder>/engine_runtime.json`; DLM evaluation checks decoder alignment before starting workers. The VLM service records its causal model/runtime configuration separately in `outputs/sglang/vlm/engine_runtime.json`. For higher service concurrency, use independent replicas with distinct devices, ports, and output directories; the default queue is not continuous multi-request batching.
