PRISM-VLM - Counting: leaderboard

The counting axis of PRISM-VLM (NAVER, 2026): synthesized questions ask how many of an object an image shows, with integer answers from 1 to 100 checked by exact match. Accuracy in percent; higher is better.

Metric: Per-axis mean score (%; exact-integer accuracy on synthesized counting questions; over PRISM-VLM's 6,238 items recycled from 15 public VLM benchmarks (five seeds of 100 items per benchmark); GPT-5 (low effort) synthesizes the perturbations and grades the open-ended axes; each model at the lowest reasoning effort its provider exposes, temperature 0). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around May 2028. 42 models tracked.
