EXPLORE-Bench: Egocentric Scene Prediction with Long-Horizon Reasoning

arXiv:2603. 09731v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly considered as a foundation for embodied agents, yet it remains unclear whether they can reliably reason about the long-term physical consequences of actions from an egocentric viewpoint.

A Very Big Video Reasoning Suite

The paper introduces the Very Big Video Reasoning (VBVR) Dataset, a large-scale collection of over one million video clips organized into 200 curated reasoning tasks. It also presents VBVR-Bench, a benchmark framework that uses rule-based, human-aligned scorers for reproducible evaluation of video reasoning models. The authors conduct a large-scale scaling study, noting early signs of emergent generalization to unseen reasoning tasks, and make all resources publicly available.

RePAIR: Predictive Self-Supervised Representation Learning in Chess

arXiv:2606. 11860v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we introduce Representation Prediction via Autoencoding using Iterative Refinement (RePAIR) - a novel self-supervised representation learning architecture that synthesizes Masked Autoencoders (MAE), Joint Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPA), and Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT).

SocialReasonBench: A Video-QA Benchmark for Social Reasoning with Counterfactual Narrative Videos

SocialReasonBench is a new video‑multiple‑choice QA benchmark designed to test socially grounded reasoning in interactive narrative videos. It uses branching gameplay footage from *Detroit: Become Human*, where player choices create alternative social outcomes that can be verified against the game’s script and flowchart. The benchmark includes seven reasoning dimensions—such as intent recognition, emotional empathy, moral dilemma, counterfactual reasoning, and causal antecedent—and employs a multi‑agent pipeline to curate clips, ground answer labels, and generate theory‑guided questions with diagnostic distractors.

Spatiotemporal Knowledge Graphs as Persistent Scene Memory for Embodied Question Answering

arXiv:2510. 01483v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) demonstrate strong image-level scene understanding, but reasoning over long egocentric video remains costly: because VLMs maintain no persistent memory or explicit spatial representation, all sampled frames must be re-processed for every new query.
