1. **[Aligning Books and Movies: Towards Story-like Visual Explanations by Watching Movies and Reading Books](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhu-2015-aligning-books-movies-towards-story/)** *(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](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/du-2023-improving-factuality-reasoning-language-models/)** *(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](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/jin-2024-mmtom-qa-multimodal-theory-mind/)** *(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…
