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.

EgoMemReason: A Memory-Driven Reasoning Benchmark for Long-Horizon Egocentric Video Understanding
EgoMemReason is a new benchmark for week‑long egocentric video understanding that focuses on memory‑driven reasoning rather than simple perception tasks. It tests three memory types—entity, event, and behavior—across 500 questions, each requiring evidence from an average of 5.1 video segments and 25.9 hours of backtracking. Evaluation of 17 models shows that even the best achieves only 39.6% accuracy, highlighting the difficulty of long‑horizon memory in multimodal systems.

EgoArgus: Benchmarking VLMs as Situational Assistants for Modality-Grounded User Supports
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.
