VTC-Bench (Code Tools) - Attention Focusing: leaderboard

Metric: Pass rate (%) on attention focusing (45 questions on rotated or flipped images), answering VTC-Bench's 680 visual questions (538 multiple-choice, 142 open-ended) that call for chains of image operations with 32 OpenCV-based tools invoked by writing code (Qwen-Agent, or the Thyme framework for the open tool-use models), up to 20 rounds; rule matching plus a GPT-4o judge for open answers; proprietary models in high reasoning mode; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around January 2027. 19 models tracked.
