Core Concepts
MLLMs struggle with context-dependent visual comprehension, highlighting the need for improvement.
Abstract
The article introduces the CODIS benchmark to evaluate MLLMs' ability to comprehend visuals in a context-dependent manner. It discusses the importance of context in visual tasks and explores visual ambiguities. The taxonomy of context, instruction design, evaluation method, and data collection process are detailed. Results show that MLLMs fall short of human performance on CODIS, emphasizing deficiencies in visual information extraction and bias in model outputs. Further analyses reveal biases and disparities between model outputs and human evaluations.
