Before you install
- Requires a simulator backend (e.g., OmniGibson) or a stub implementation like TrivialBackend to evaluate activity conditions; cannot be used standalone for simulation.
- High install friction due to 6 runtime dependencies including pytest, numpy, networkx, jupytext, future, and nltk.

What it is and what it does
BDDL is a predicate logic language for defining household activity benchmarks in the BEHAVIOR framework. It represents each activity as a planning problem with three components: a categorized object list, an initial state with ground literals, and a goal condition expressed as a logical formula. The language is simulator-agnostic—it specifies only the state that must be reached for success, not how an agent achieves it.
To use BDDL, you either work with it standalone (parsing activity definitions and evaluating conditions via stub backends) or integrate it with a simulator like OmniGibson by implementing a BDDLBackend subclass and object-state predicates. The package includes logic evaluation and a basic solver for ground goal solutions. It depends on pytest, numpy, networkx, jupytext, future, and nltk, making installation heavyweight.
Use it for
- Define benchmark household tasks (e.g., cleaning, organizing) as formal planning problems for embodied AI research.
- Evaluate whether a simulated agent has satisfied activity success conditions by checking goal predicates.
- Integrate activity definitions with a physics simulator to sample initial scenes and validate agent behavior.
- Generate ground solutions to compositional goal conditions with quantification for task planning.
- Extend BDDL to a new simulator by implementing predicate checks and object-state instantiation.
