GeoChain: Multimodal Chain-of-Thought for Geographic Reasoning (2025.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Leveraging 1.46 million Mapillary street-level images, GeoChain pairs each image with a 21-step chain-of-thought (CoT) question sequence (over 30 million Q&A pairs). |
| Approach: | They propose a large-scale benchmark for evaluating step-by-step geographic reasoning in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) they pair each image with a 21-step chain-of-thought (CoT) question sequence (over 30 million Q&A pairs) |
| Outcome: | The proposed benchmark pairs 1.46 million images with a 21-step chain-of-thought (CoT) question sequence (over 30 million Q&A pairs) |

| Challenge: | Using data from 420k Twitter posts, we characterize anti-Asian violence-provoking speech and collect a community-crowdsourced dataset to facilitate its large-scale detection. |
| Approach: | They develop a codebook to characterize anti-Asian violence-provoking speech and collect a community-crowdsourced dataset to facilitate its large-scale detection. |
| Outcome: | The proposed codebook analyzes 420k tweets over 3 years and compares classifiers with hateful speech classifier classifier to detect hateful content. |
