Obstacle Tower

Introduced by Arthur Juliani et al. in Obstacle Tower: A Generalization Challenge in Vision, Control, and Planning archive 2025-07-28

Obstacle Tower is a high fidelity, 3D, 3rd person, procedurally generated environment for reinforcement learning. An agent playing Obstacle Tower must learn to solve both low-level control and high-level planning problems in tandem while learning from pixels and a sparse reward signal. Unlike other benchmarks such as the Arcade Learning Environment, evaluation of agent performance in Obstacle Tower is based on an agent’s ability to perform well on unseen instances of the environment.

Benchmarks archive 2025-07-28

All 6 leaderboards whose dataset resolves to this page shown (sort by any header). "First row" is the archive's own first row at snapshot, in the archive's row order; nothing here re-ranks and metric direction is not asserted.

Papers archive 2025-07-28

1 shown of 1 paper with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 20. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
