DiffCap-Bench - Image Property: leaderboard

Metric: Macro-averaged F1* (%) on global image property changes such as resolution or saturation: harmonic mean of recall* (share of key differences described) and precision* (share of described differences that are correct) on the 1,075 image pairs of DiffCap-Bench (6,713 human-verified difference items), one fixed captioning prompt, open models at temperature 0.1 and proprietary models at their defaults, a Gemini 2.5 Pro judge matching each described difference against the key difference list; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around January 2027. 16 models tracked.
