SIGNPOST-Bench - Text-Removed Localization: leaderboard

Geolocation of images whose scene text has been removed by a localized edit (Blank variant) in SIGNPOST-Bench (arXiv 2608.04244v1, Table 1). Weighted localization accuracy scores each prediction as exp(-0.005 x geodesic error in km), macro-averaged over IM2GPS3K, YFCC4K, GoogleSV and BaiduSV, in percent; higher is better.

Metric: Weighted localization accuracy (%; exp(-0.005 x geodesic km), four-dataset macro average). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around May 2028. 20 models tracked.
