WildRoadBench: A Wild Aerial Road-Damage Grounding Benchmark for Vision-Language Models and Autonomous Agents
We introduce WildRoadBench, a wild aerial road-damage grounding benchmark that couples direct visual grounding by vision-language models with autonomous research-and-engineering by LLM-driven agents on a single professionally annotated UAV corpus. The same image set and the same per-class AP_50 metric are evaluated under two protocols. The VLM Track measures whether a fixed VLM can localise domain-specific damage from one image and one short prompt under a unified prompting, decoding and parsing pipeline. The Agent Track measures whether an autonomous agent, given only a written task brief, a small exploratory slice and a fixed interaction budget, can search the public web, adapt pretrain...
