Social Caption - Directed Social Analysis: leaderboard

Given a one-minute Social-IQ 2.0 video at one frame per second, its WhisperX transcript and a question about the interaction, a multimodal model describes the scene details, individuals, interactions and context needed to answer it; Social Caption (Mathur et al., 2026). Two human annotators rate each description on six 1-5 sub-dimensions, and the score is the summed mean rating out of 30 over a 50-video subset of the validation set; higher is better.

Metric: Human rating of a description of the social information needed to answer a Social-IQ 2.0 question about the video (sum of six 1-5 Likert sub-dimensions: relevant scene details, key individuals, relevant interactions, relevant context, answer detail, prompt adherence; 6-30; mean of two annotators per video; Social-IQ 2.0 validation videos (one minute each), a 50-video subset matched to the full set; the model gets the video at 1 frame per second and a timestamped WhisperX transcript, default temperature).
