1. Aligning Books and Movies: Towards Story-like Visual Explanations by Watching Movies and Reading Books (2015 · 3,083 citations)
   The paper asks whether novels can supply rich, story-level descriptions for film footage, going far beyond the short captions found in existing vision-language datasets.
2. Improving Factuality and Reasoning in Language Models through Multiagent Debate (2023 · 587 citations)
   LLMs often state invented facts with confidence or make unjustified leaps in multi-step reasoning. Earlier fixes such as chain-of-thought, self-verification and reflection all work inside a single model instance. This paper instead runs several copies of a language model as separate "agents." Each agent first answers…
3. MMToM-QA: Multimodal Theory of Mind Question Answering (2024 · 44 citations)
   Existing Theory of Mind (ToM) benchmarks test models on a single modality, either video or text. Human mental-state reasoning, however, combines whatever evidence is available. The authors introduce MMToM-QA, a benchmark that pairs household activity videos with textual descriptions of the scene and the person's…
