As the capabilities of large multimodal models (LMMs) continue to advance,
evaluating the performance of LMMs emerges as an increasing need. Additionally,
there is an even larger gap in evaluating the advanced knowledge and reasoning
abilities of LMMs in non-English contexts such as Chinese. We introduce CMMMU,
a new Chinese Massive Multi-discipline Multimodal Understanding benchmark
designed to evaluate LMMs on tasks demanding college-level subject knowledge
and deliberate reasoning in a Chinese context. CMMMU is inspired by and
strictly follows the annotation and analysis pattern of MMMU.
CMMMU includes 12k manually collected multimodal questions from college
exams, quizzes, and textbooks, covering six core disciplines: Art & Design,
Business, Science, Health & Medicine, Humanities & Social Science, and Tech &
Engineering, like its companion, MMMU. These questions span 30 subjects and
comprise 39 highly heterogeneous image types, such as charts, diagrams, maps,
tables, music sheets, and chemical structures.
CMMMU focuses on complex perception and reasoning with domain-specific
knowledge in the Chinese context. We evaluate 11 open-source LLMs and one
proprietary GPT-4V(ision). Even GPT-4V only achieves accuracies of 42%,
indicating a large space for improvement. CMMMU will boost the community to
build the next-generation LMMs towards expert artificial intelligence and
promote the democratization of LMMs by providing diverse language contexts.

CMMMU 是一个新的中国大规模多学科多模态理解基准，旨在评估大型多模态模型在中国语境中对要求大学级学科知识和深思熟虑推理的任务上的表现，并推动下一代 LMMs 的发展。

CMMMU: A Chinese Massive Multi-discipline Multimodal Understanding  Benchmark

We introduce MMMU: a new benchmark designed to evaluate multimodal models on
massive multi-discipline tasks demanding college-level subject knowledge and
deliberate reasoning. MMMU includes 11.5K meticulously collected multimodal
questions from college exams, quizzes, and textbooks, covering six core
disciplines: Art & Design, Business, Science, Health & Medicine, Humanities &
Social Science, and Tech & Engineering. These questions span 30 subjects and
183 subfields, comprising 30 highly heterogeneous image types, such as charts,
diagrams, maps, tables, music sheets, and chemical structures. Unlike existing
benchmarks, MMMU focuses on advanced perception and reasoning with
domain-specific knowledge, challenging models to perform tasks akin to those
faced by experts. Our evaluation of 14 open-source LMMs and the proprietary
GPT-4V(ision) highlights the substantial challenges posed by MMMU. Even the
advanced GPT-4V only achieves a 56% accuracy, indicating significant room for
improvement. We believe MMMU will stimulate the community to build
next-generation multimodal foundation models towards expert artificial general
intelligence.

我们介绍了 MMMU：一个新的基准，旨在评估多模态模型在需要大学级学科知识和深思熟虑的大规模跨学科任务上的表现。MMMU 包括来自大学考试、测验和教科书的 11500 个精心收集的多模态问题，涵盖六个核心学科：艺术与设计、商业、科学、健康与医药、人文社会科学和技术与工程学。这些问题涵盖 30 个学科和 183 个子领域，包括 30 种高度异质的图像类型，如图表、图示、地图、表格、乐谱和化学结构。与现有基准不同，MMMU 侧重于使用领域特定知识进行高级感知和推理，挑战模型执行类似于专家面临的任务。我们对 14 个开源 LMM 和专有的 GPT-4V (ision) 进行了评估，突显了 MMMU 所带来的巨大挑战。即使是先进的 GPT-4V 只能达到 56％的准确率，表明有很大的改进空间。我们相信 MMMU 将推动社区构建面向专家人工通用智能的下一代多模态基础模型。
