Right Answer, Wrong Heat: Explanation-Aware Evaluation and Thermal-Grounded Feedback for MLLMs on Infrared Images

General-purpose multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly applied to infrared images, where they are commonly scored by answer accuracy alone. However, a correct answer does not ensure that the model's explanation is grounded in infrared thermal evidence. We introduce an explanation-aware evaluation fra...
