MMVP (Multimodal Visual Patterns) Benchmark

This is a corrected version of the MMVP benchmark, re-hosted by lmms-lab-eval for use with lmms-eval.

Why this copy?

The original MMVP/MMVP dataset was uploaded in imagefolder format, which only exposes the image column. The text annotations (Question, Options, Correct Answer, Index) from the accompanying Questions.csv were not loaded into the dataset, making it unusable for evaluation.

This version reconstructs the complete dataset by merging the images with Questions.csv from the original repository.

Ground Truth Corrections

Based on verification in lmms-eval issue #1018 and the original MMVP issue #30, we found that two pairs of samples had their answers swapped. The corrections are applied directly in this dataset:

Index	Question	Original GT	Corrected GT	Reason
99	Does the elephant have long or short tusks?	(a) Long	(b) Short	Image shows short tusks
100	Does the elephant have long or short tusks?	(b) Short	(a) Long	Image shows long tusks
279	Is the elderly person standing or sitting?	(a) Standing	(b) Sitting	Image shows person sitting on bench
280	Is the elderly person standing or sitting?	(b) Sitting	(a) Standing	Image shows person standing

Dataset Structure

Field	Type	Description
`Index`	int32	1-based sample index (1–300)
`Question`	string	The visual question
`Options`	string	Answer choices in format `(a) ... (b) ...`
`Correct Answer`	string	Ground truth: `(a)` or `(b)`
`image`	image	224×224 RGB image

300 samples organized as 150 pairs
Each pair has the same question but opposite correct answers
Tests 9 visual patterns: orientation, direction, color, counting, etc.
