VISTA-Bench - Multimodal Perception: leaderboard

Metric: Accuracy (%) on the 300 multimodal perception questions (global, instance and attribute perception, with the problem image) with every question rendered as an image of text (LaTeX pipeline, 800-pixel width, standard fonts) and read through the vision encoder; 1,500 manually checked questions drawn from MMBench, SEED-Bench, MMMU and MMLU (1,462 multiple-choice, 38 open); zero-shot with VLMEvalKit default decoding, final answers recovered by a GPT-based extractor; higher is better.
