GRASP: Learning to Ground Social Reasoning in Multi-Person Non-Verbal Interactions

Understanding social interactions requires reasoning over subtle non-verbal cues, yet current multimodal large language models (MLLMs) often fail to identify who interacts with whom in multi-person videos. We introduce GRASP, a large-scale social reasoning dataset that connects high-level social QA with fine-grained gaze and deictic gesture events. GRASP contains 290K question--answer pairs over 46K videos totaling 749 hours, organized by a 16-category taxonomy spanning gaze, gesture, and joint gaze--gesture reasoning, together with GRASP-Bench for evaluation. Unlike prior resources that focus on either isolated cues or high-level social QA, GRASP builds questions from identity-consistent gaze trajectories, deictic gestures, and their joint compositions into social events. Moreover, we propose Social Grounding Reward (SGR), a learning signal that uses these social events to encourage models to reason about the participants involved in each interaction. Experiments show that SGR improves performance on GRASP-Bench while maintaining zero-shot performance on related social video QA benchmarks.

MM-SpuBench: Towards Better Understanding of Spurious Biases in Multimodal LLMs

Spurious bias, a tendency to exploit spurious correlations between superficial input attributes and prediction targets, has revealed a severe robustness pitfall in classical machine learning problems. Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), which leverage pretrained vision and language models, have recently demonstrated strong capability in joint vision-language understanding. However, both the presence and severity of spurious biases in MLLMs remain poorly understood. In this work, we address this gap by analyzing the spurious biases in the multimodal setting and uncovering the specific inference-time data patterns that can manifest this problem. To support this analysis, we introduce MM-SpuBench, a comprehensive, human-verified benchmark dataset consisting of image-class pairs annotated with core and spurious attributes, grounded in our taxonomy of nine distinct types of spurious correlations. The benchmark is constructed using human-interpretable attribute information to capture a wide range of spurious patterns reflective of real-world knowledge. Leveraging this benchmark, we conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the state-of-the-art open-source and proprietary MLLMs with both standard accuracy and the proposed Conditional Generation Likelihood Advantage (CGLA). Our findings highlight the persistence of reliance on spurious correlations and the difficulty of mitigation on our benchmark. We hope this work can inspire new technical strides to mitigate these biases. Our benchmark is publicly available at https://huggingface.co/datasets/mmbench/MM-SpuBench.
