CausalPhys - Entity Faithfulness: leaderboard

CausalPhys (2026) tests vision-language models on physical reasoning questions over real-world images and videos, each paired with an expert causal graph of objects, attributes and events. This board is the share in percent of causal-graph entities that the model rationale mentions, checked by a GPT-4o judge and averaged over the four domains; higher is better.

Metric: Entity Faithfulness (0-1 scaled to %), the share of causal-graph entities the rationale mentions, averaged over the four domains; the model writes a rationale and an answer; a GPT-4o judge makes binary checks of the rationale against the expert-annotated causal graph (typed object, attribute and event nodes with directed dependencies); higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Estimated already saturated. 11 models tracked.
