Order Matters: LVLMs as Judges for Temporal Reasoning in Image Sequences
This work identifies a critical structural gap in current multimodal evaluation paradigms, arguing that the reliance on Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) as judges is fundamentally limited by architectural biases, and challenges the multimedia community to move beyond snapshot-centric metrics and instead pioneer Temporally-Aware Evaluation paradigms that treat visual sequences as unified logical structures rather than unordered collections of frames.
