M$^3$R-Bench is a new benchmark comprising 1,000 human‑annotated image‑text pairs that jointly label metaphor occurrence, Target‑Source mapping, and sentiment, and provide step‑by‑step explanations for evidence identification, mapping, and sentiment inference. Existing models often rely on textual shortcuts and produce mappings that conflict with visual evidence, as shown by evaluations on this dataset. To address this, the authors propose M$^3$R‑Reasoner, a model that uses curriculum‑based reasoning supervision and task‑aware reinforcement learning, achieving a 37.90% Joint Label Accuracy and outperforming both proprietary baselines and GPT‑5.5 on evidence and sentiment justification.
arXiv:2607. 16311v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) often answer visual questions using learned language and category priors rather than grounding their predictions in the image itself.
arXiv:2607. 16131v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal Scientific Claim Verification (MSCV) requires models to verify scientific claims using visually grounded evidence from papers, including figures, tables, charts, and textual context.
arXiv:2509. 22415v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved strong vision-language performance, yet their token-level visual evidence remains difficult to inspect.
Scientific images are the core elements of presenting experimental conclusions, elaborating system architecture, and supporting comparative arguments in scientific papers. However, existing image quality assessment (IQA) methods are predominantly designed for natural photographs or AI-generated content, which cannot be directly applied to scientific papers.
