Synthetic Scenario Generation for Evaluation of Industry 4.0 Agents (arxiv.org)
arXiv:2607.22563v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Industrial agent benchmarks require realistic evaluation scenarios that integrate telemetry, failure modes, maintenance records, and domain standards. However, existing benchmarks such as AssetOpsBench rely on manually authored scenarios and cover a limited set of asset classes. We extend AssetOpsBench with a Smart Grid Transformer asset class and four IEC-grounded diagnostic tools for health-index prediction, dissolved-gas analysis, winding-temperature assessment, and load-profile assessment. We further introduce ScenarioGeneratorAgent, a pipeline for synthetic industrial-agent scenario generation. The pipeline constructs evidence-grounded asset profiles, allocates coverage-aware scenario budgets across operational domains, and generates candidates through a hybrid validation-and-repair loop that enforces schema validity, tool reachability, physical plausibility, standards alignment, and deduplication. To improve scalability, we apply two-level caching, parallel focus-group generation, thread-pool offloading, batched LLM calls, and early rejection filtering. On Smart Grid Transformer scenario generation, these optimizations reduce end-to-end runtime by $8\times$ for 50 scenarios while preserving quality, achieving a composite quality score of $74.2 \pm 1.9$ compared with $73.8 \pm 3.0$ for the unoptimized baseline. These results show that standards-grounded synthetic scenario generation can efficiently expand industrial-agent benchmarks without sacrificing scenario quality.
