EgoErrorVQA introduces a new egocentric visual question answering task that evaluates visual agents’ ability to detect procedural errors in everyday activities. The paper presents an evaluator agent built on the Agent2Agent protocol and shows that current models struggle with procedural error recognition. It also proposes Ego-ADR, an Adaptive Decoupled Reasoning framework that improves performance on the task, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results.
arXiv:2607. 24770v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Procedural tasks such as furniture assembly and home repair impose substantial cognitive demands because users must interpret instructions, track task progress, reason about spatial state, and recover from errors while performing physical actions.
EgoArgus is a new, human‑annotated dataset that tests visual‑language models (VLMs) as situational assistants in five everyday dialogue‑video scenarios. It evaluates how well VLMs understand and decide when to intervene, especially when visual and textual cues are helpful, irrelevant, or conflicting. The study finds that current VLMs still struggle to reliably act as egocentric assistants and that existing modality‑bias mitigation methods offer limited improvement.

arXiv:2606. 13929v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are typically trained as passive answerers, while their ability to actively ask diverse, non-trivial, visual-centric and grounded questions remains underexplored.
