The paper introduces a new benchmark for evaluating Multi‑Modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) on visual negation understanding, focusing on safety-critical scenarios. It defines the Scene Negation Understanding under Safety Cognition (SNUS) task and presents a high‑fidelity negative caption dataset that maps dense assertions of localized hazards. The authors also propose the Cognitive Expected Scene Graph (CESG) Score, a polarity‑aware, structure‑grounded metric that remains robust under semantic reversals, revealing that existing models and traditional metrics fail on this task.
SAFIRE is a large-scale benchmark for fire and smoke understanding in multimodal large language models (MLLMs), featuring 83,000 captioned images across 20 scenarios and 193,000 multiple-choice VQA questions derived from a 9.7K-image subset. The benchmark evaluates 10 dimensions of performance, from basic perception to higher-order reasoning, and employs a GPT‑5.4-assisted verification pipeline to ensure annotation quality. Experiments on ten open-source MLLMs (8B–38B) reveal an average accuracy of 61.9%, highlighting significant gaps in safety-critical reasoning, while fine-tuning vision encoders on just 7% of SAFIRE data boosts fire-scene classification accuracy from 20.1% to 64.5%.
