Annoucement

Why lmms-eval?

In today's world, we're on an exciting journey toward creating Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), much like the enthusiasm of the 1960s moon landing. This journey is powered by advanced large language models (LLMs) and large multimodal models (LMMs), which are complex systems capable of understanding, learning, and performing a wide variety of human tasks.

To gauge how advanced these models are, we use a variety of evaluation benchmarks. These benchmarks are tools that help us understand the capabilities of these models, showing us how close we are to achieving AGI.

However, finding and using these benchmarks is a big challenge. The necessary benchmarks and datasets are spread out and hidden in various places like Google Drive, Dropbox, and different school and research lab websites. It feels like we're on a treasure hunt, but the maps are scattered everywhere.

In the field of language models, there has been a valuable precedent set by the work of lm-evaluation-harness. They offer integrated data and model interfaces, enabling rapid evaluation of language models and serving as the backend support framework for the open-llm-leaderboard, and has gradually become the underlying ecosystem of the era of foundation models.

We humbly obsorbed the exquisite and efficient design of lm-evaluation-harness and introduce lmms-eval, an evaluation framework meticulously crafted for consistent and efficient evaluation of LMM.

Installation

For formal usage, you can install the package from PyPI by running the following command:

pip install lmms-eval

For development, you can install the package by cloning the repository and running the following command:

git clone https://github.com/EvolvingLMMs-Lab/lmms-eval
cd lmms-eval
pip install -e .

If you wanted to test llava, you will have to clone their repo from LLaVA and

# for llava 1.5
# git clone https://github.com/haotian-liu/LLaVA
# cd LLaVA
# pip install -e .

# for llava-next (1.6)
git clone https://github.com/LLaVA-VL/LLaVA-NeXT
cd LLaVA-NeXT
pip install -e .
Reproduction of LLaVA-1.5's paper results You can check the [environment install script](miscs/repr_scripts.sh) and [torch environment info](miscs/repr_torch_envs.txt) to **reproduce LLaVA-1.5's paper results**. We found torch/cuda versions difference would cause small variations in the results, we provide the [results check](miscs/llava_result_check.md) with different environments.

If you want to test on caption dataset such as coco, refcoco, and nocaps, you will need to have java==1.8.0 to let pycocoeval api to work. If you don't have it, you can install by using conda

conda install openjdk=8

you can then check your java version by java -version

Comprehensive Evaluation Results of LLaVA Family Models
As demonstrated by the extensive table below, we aim to provide detailed information for readers to understand the datasets included in lmms-eval and some specific details about these datasets (we remain grateful for any corrections readers may have during our evaluation process). We provide a Google Sheet for the detailed results of the LLaVA series models on different datasets. You can access the sheet [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1a5ImfdKATDI8T7Cwh6eH-bEsnQFzanFraFUgcS9KHWc/edit?usp=sharing). It's a live sheet, and we are updating it with new results.

We also provide the raw data exported from Weights & Biases for the detailed results of the LLaVA series models on different datasets. You can access the raw data [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AvaEmuG4csSmXaHjgu4ei1KBMmNNW8wflOD_kkTDdv8/edit?usp=sharing).


Our Development will be continuing on the main branch, and we encourage you to give us feedback on what features are desired and how to improve the library further, or ask questions, either in issues or PRs on GitHub.

    --model_args pretrained="liuhaotian/llava-v1.5-7b" \
    --tasks mme \
    --batch_size 1 \
    --log_samples \
    --log_samples_suffix llava_v1.5_mme \
    --output_path ./logs/

Evaluation of LLaVA on multiple datasets

python3 -m accelerate.commands.launch \
    --num_processes=8 \
    -m lmms_eval \
    --model llava \
    --model_args pretrained="liuhaotian/llava-v1.5-7b" \

For other variants llava. Please change the conv_template in the model_args

conv_template is an arg of the init function of llava in lmms_eval/models/llava.py, you could find the corresponding value at LLaVA's code, probably in a dict variable conv_templates in llava/conversations.py

python3 -m accelerate.commands.launch \
    --num_processes=8 \
    -m lmms_eval \
    --model llava \
    --model_args pretrained="liuhaotian/llava-v1.6-mistral-7b,conv_template=mistral_instruct" \
    --tasks mme,mmbench_en \
    --batch_size 1 \
    --log_samples \
    --log_samples_suffix llava_v1.5_mme_mmbenchen \
    --output_path ./logs/

Evaluation of larger lmms (llava-v1.6-34b)
