RobotEQ-Video: A Video-Centric Benchmark for Social Proactive Intelligence with World-State Taxonomy
TL;DR
This work advances SPI research from static images to dynamic videos and ensures more comprehensive scenario coverage during benchmarking with RobotEQ-Video, a hierarchical world-state taxonomy organized into a four-level coarse-to-fine structure.
Abstract
Social Proactive Intelligence (SPI) extends proactive assistance beyond task completeness to consider social appropriateness in diverse embodied scenarios. However, prior SPI research faces two key limitations. First, existing work focuses on static images, whereas dynamic videos provide crucial cues for inferring human states and needs, offering richer information than isolated images. Second, prior work often relies on free-form data collection pipelines, which fail to guarantee comprehensive coverage of diverse scenarios. To address these gaps, we introduce RobotEQ-Video, shifting the focus from image-centric to video-centric analysis. To ensure comprehensive video coverage, we construct a hierarchical world-state taxonomy organized into a four-level coarse-to-fine structure, comprising 6 domains, 20 dimensions, 142 level-1 attributes, and 816 level-2 attributes. The resulting benchmark comprises 2K+ videos with 100K+ human annotations and 16K+ labels for assessing behavior properness. Benchmark evaluation reveals that current systems remain unreliable and fall short of human performance. We further explore how world models can help tackle this task. This work advances SPI research from static images to dynamic videos and ensures more comprehensive scenario coverage during benchmarking.
