Researchers have introduced AD2-Bench, a new evaluation benchmark designed to assess the trustworthiness of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) in complex urban environments. Unlike existing benchmarks that only evaluate final predictions, AD2-Bench employs a Hierarchical Visual Diagnosis framework to decompose reasoning into a structured Chain of Evidence. This approach aims to identify failures in evidence acquisition, specifically spatial ambiguity and semantic uncertainty, which degrade MLLM performance under adverse conditions. To address these issues, the proposed Evidence-grounded Visual Reasoning (EGVOR) method generates explicit Evidence Atoms, structured triplets that enforce alignment between localization and semantic understanding, thereby improving reasoning stability.
