MMBU - Ungrounded Classification: leaderboard

MMBU (Massive Multimodal Biomedical Understanding, 2026) probes the visual perception of vision-language models on biomedical images from 35 submodalities. This board is closed-ended (multiple-choice) classification of the whole image, scored as micro-averaged F1 times 100; higher is better.

Metric: Closed-ended (multiple-choice) ungrounded classification of the whole image: micro-averaged F1 x100 (0-100) over MMBU's biomedical images from 35 submodalities (95% bootstrap intervals not published); zero-shot, official checkpoints; exact match after normalization. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around February 2027. 17 models tracked.
