New research finds LLMs struggle with duration commonsense reasoning

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new research paper explores the ability of vision-language models to infer duration commonsense from text and visual cues. Researchers created a corpus of geotagged tweets, co-annotated by humans and LLMs, to test this capability. The study found that current state-of-the-art models struggle with duration inference, often failing to integrate contextual information or over-relying on prominent visual details while missing subtle semantic nuances.

    Leaving, Staying, or Living There? Duration Commonsense Reasoning with Human-LLM Co-annotations

    arXiv:2610.38755v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gardening in the backyard implies living there, while checking into an Airbnb more likely means staying for a few days. Such duration judgments are important for understanding human mobility, travel behavior, and social context. How…
