CulMind-R: leaderboard

CulMind (2026) tests multimodal models on 50 Chinese cultural heritage tasks built from more than 100 museum collections. CulMind-R is its 24-task reasoning subset; this board is the final-answer score from 0 to 100 when the model writes a structured reasoning process first; higher is better.
