New benchmark assesses multimodal LLMs' visual detection capabilities

Researchers have introduced FindIt, a new benchmark designed to evaluate the promptable localization abilities of generalist multimodal large language models (MLLMs). This benchmark covers object detection, referring expression detection, instance-level detection, and video-based detection, standardizing inputs and outputs for fair evaluation. Initial assessments of various MLLMs reveal significant limitations, particularly in adhering to specific output formatting requirements, highlighting areas for future model development and evaluation improvements.

    FindIt: A Format-Informed Visual Detection Benchmark for Generalist Multimodal LLMs

    arXiv:2606.04282v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are predominantly evaluated on free-form vision-language tasks such as visual question answering, captioning, and summarization. However, their practical use is rapidly expanding to more stru…
