  1. SOTOPIA: Interactive Evaluation for Social Intelligence in Language Agents (2023 · 138 citations)
    Benchmarks for social intelligence in AI are mostly static, and existing interactive setups tend to cover narrow tasks or lack diverse, goal-driven behavior.
  2. Improve Vision Language Model Chain-of-thought Reasoning (2025 · 42 citations)
    Most training data for vision language models (VLMs) pairs images with very brief answers and little explanation. The authors show that this limits chain-of-thought (CoT) ability. Fine-tuning on short ChartQA answers improved direct prediction but barely changed CoT accuracy.
  3. Direct Preference Optimization of Video Large Multimodal Models from Language Model Reward (2025 · 32 citations)
    Preference optimization methods like DPO help align language models, but they are hard to use for video LMMs.
