What do the NVIDIA Cosmos paper and docs actually document for synthetic data generation and agent evaluation, versus only propose?

Partially verified: the curator re-read none of the cited sources; S5, S7, S8, S9 rest on the producer's pinned reading. The Cosmos paper (v3) lists four uses of a world foundation model (policy evaluation, policy initialization/training, planning, synthetic data) and says it reports no empirical results for them. What it does measure are model-level checks: 3D consistency, physics alignment and post-training results for camera control, robotic manipulation (action-conditioned and instruction-conditioned video prediction) and driving. The docs (observed 2026-10-22) describe workflows with inputs/outputs: Cosmos-Transfer2.5 for two augmentation workflows (Simulations to Photorealism; Scale World State Diversity) with computed control maps; Predict2.5 action-conditioned post-training on Bridge end-effector poses; Reason1 best-of-N rejection sampling with a score = fraction of artifact-free evaluations. The docs show example videos and procedures but no downstream policy or accuracy results on the pages read. Curator qualifications: Partially verified: the curator re-read none of the cited sources; S5, S7, S8, S9 rest on the producer's pinned reading. Curator GET 2026-10-23 of the sources not re-read (mechanical source evidence, not semantic verification): S5: HTTP 200, bytes differ from the producer pin; S7: HTTP 200, bytes equal to the producer pin; S8: HTTP 200, bytes equal to the producer pin; S9: HTTP 200, bytes equal to the producer pin. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
