HOI-Edit - Causal and Physical Reasoning: leaderboard
HOI-Edit (2026) asks image editing models to change human-object interactions, such as picking up, using or moving an object, and scores the edit with grounded questions to Gemini 2.5 Pro about tracked human and object regions. This board is the 0 to 100 interaction score, zeroed when a process or physics check fails, on 146 edits with implied steps, tools and physical effects; higher is better.
Metric: Interaction score gated by a context question (0-100), zero when the process or physics check fails, on the 146 Level-3 edits (implied prerequisite steps, tools and physical effects), scored by HOI-Eval: the human and object boxes are tracked into the edited image and Gemini 2.5 Pro rates the interaction from tagged crops; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Rough model projection: around 2026. 8 models tracked.
