TimeLitmus - Traffic Event-Side Counterfactual Pairs: leaderboard

A controlled diagnostic of TimeLitmus (Gong et al., 2026): each of 30 Traffic pairs keeps the traffic history and changes the incident severity or lane impact so that the expected response changes. Both endpoints are evaluated independently and a pair counts only when both predictions are correct; pair correctness in percent, higher is better.

Metric: Counterfactual pair correctness (%; both independently evaluated endpoints correct on 30 Traffic pairs whose incident severity or capacity impact is changed while the series is kept; ten LLMs with deterministic decoding where available, invalid or unparsable outputs scored incorrect). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around October 2028. 10 models tracked.
