ZeroBench: An Impossible Visual Benchmark for Contemporary Large Multimodal Models
Jonathan Roberts, Mohammad Reza Taesiri, Ansh Sharma +31
Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) exhibit shortfalls when interpreting images and, by some measures, have poorer spatial cognition than young children or animals. Despite this, they a…
DataComp-VLM: Improved Open Datasets for Vision-Language Models
Matteo Farina, Vishaal Udandarao, Thao Nguyen +34
Building performant Vision-Language Models (VLMs) requires carefully curating large-scale training datasets, yet the community lacks systematic benchmarks for evaluating such curat…
Concept-Aware Batch Sampling Improves Language-Image Pretraining
Adhiraj Ghosh, Vishaal Udandarao, Thao Nguyen +7
What data should a vision-language model be trained on? To answer this question, many data curation efforts center on the quality of a dataset. However, most of these existing meth…
Solving Spatial Supersensing Without Spatial Supersensing
Vishaal Udandarao, Shyamgopal Karthik, Surabhi S. Nath +3
Cambrian-S aims to take the first steps towards improving video world models with spatial supersensing by introducing (i) two benchmarks, VSI-Super-Recall (VSR) and VSI-Super-Count…
Data-Centric Lessons To Improve Speech-Language Pretraining
Vishaal Udandarao, Zhiyun Lu, Xuankai Chang +6
Spoken Question-Answering (SQA) is a core capability for useful and interactive artificial intelligence systems. Recently, several speech-language models (SpeechLMs) have been rele…
A Sober Look at Progress in Language Model Reasoning: Pitfalls and Paths to Reproducibility
Andreas Hochlehnert, Hardik Bhatnagar, Vishaal Udandarao +3
Reasoning has emerged as the next major frontier for language models (LMs), with rapid advances from both academic and industrial labs. However, this progress often outpaces method…
