Rigel: Self-Distilled Score Adaptation for Image and Video Captioning Evaluation

Automatic evaluation of image and video captioning is essential for benchmarking multimodal systems, although standard evaluation metrics show limited alignment with human judgments. Recent approaches using large language models (LLMs), commonly referred to as LLM-as-a-Judge, have improved alignment with human judgments but still suffer from a mismatch between large-vocabulary language modeling and evaluation over a small label set.

RAVEN-Eval: Rubric-Guided Automatic Evaluation for AI Video Generation Models Based on LMM Preference Judgement

AI video generation has advanced rapidly and entered widespread commercial use. As a result, quality differences among videos produced by state-of-the-art AI video generation models~(AIVGMs) have become increasingly difficult to discern using conventional evaluation criteria, such as visual fidelity and semantic instruction following.

ProCap: Prominence-guided Object Rectification for Faithful and Comprehensive Video Captioning

Improving video captioning quality typically demands retraining large vision-language models, an expensive and often impractical requirement. Existing training-free alternatives instead ground captions in detected objects to curb hallucination, but apply only a single, fixed correction pass without prioritizing which objects matter most, leaving semantically significant content omitted.
