ChronoPhyBench - Frame Sorting (4 Frames): leaderboard

ChronoPhyBench (2026) tests whether multimodal models predict what happens next in real physical-interaction videos rather than relying on language priors. On this board the model sees eight frames of a video with its caption and puts four held-out frames in the order the physical process produces them; the score is the percent of exactly correct orders (chance 4.2 percent). Higher is better.

Metric: Accuracy (%) on ChronoPhyBench chronological sorting of 4 held-out frames: given the video context and caption, put the frames in the order the physical process produces them (exact order required); chance 4.2; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around February 2027. 21 models tracked.
