TRIAD is a new benchmark designed to test omni‑modal large language models’ ability to resolve ambiguity across text, vision, and audio. Each item consists of a text–image–audio triplet, a question, and answer options, constructed so that the full triplet yields a unique answer while any single modality removed makes the answer ambiguous. The benchmark includes 327 queries in 86 scene groups, covering 18 ambiguity categories, and shows that current models lag humans in scene‑level disambiguation, especially when answer options are removed.

Omnimodal language models (OLMs) enable unified audio-visual understanding, but processing long joint token sequences makes inference computationally prohibitive. While recent token compression methods attempt to alleviate this burden, compressing modalities in isolation often destroys the temporal cross-modal anchors necessary for coherent reasoning.
TRIAD is a new benchmark designed to test omni‑modal large language models’ ability to resolve ambiguity across text, vision, and audio. Each item consists of a text–image–audio triplet, a question, and answer options, crafted so that all three modalities together yield a unique answer while any single modality leaves the answer ambiguous. The benchmark contains 327 hand‑written queries in 86 scene groups, covering 18 ambiguity categories, and shows that current models lag humans significantly in scene‑level disambiguation, especially when answer options are removed.
