Sci-MMR benchmark evaluates multi-step scientific reasoning in multimodal agents
A new arXiv paper introduces Sci-MMR, a benchmark aimed at measuring how well multimodal agents carry out scientific reasoning that unfolds over multiple steps while staying grounded in retrieved evidence. The work targets autonomous research agents that must search literature, interpret experimental findings, and propose hypotheses. It frames evidence acquisition and integration as the core challenge for such systems.
