Model Zoo

We use MMB, MME, SEED-Bench, and LLaVA-Bench (in-the-wild) for model evaluation.
MMB, SEED-I, and LLaVA-w indicate MMB dev split, SEED-Bench images, and LLaVA-Bench (in-the-wild), respectively.

• Comparison with other SoTA methods (Table 6)

• Pushing the limits of Honeybee (Table 7)

Data and Checkpoints Preparation

Please follow the official guidelines to prepare benchmark datasets: MMB, MME, SEED-Bench, ScienceQA, and OwlEval. Then, organize the data and checkpoints as follows:

data

│   ├── mmbench_dev_20230712.tsv         # MMBench dev split
│   └── mmbench_test_20230712.tsv        # MMBench test split
│
├── MME
│   ├── OCR                              # Directory for OCR subtask
│   ├── ...

Evaluation

torchrun --nproc_per_node=auto --standalone eval_tasks.py \
    --ckpt_path checkpoints/7B-C-Abs-M144/last \
    --config \
        configs/tasks/mme.yaml \
        configs/tasks/mmb.yaml \
        configs/tasks/seed.yaml \
        configs/tasks/sqa.yaml

Strict reproduction of official results

We utilized batch inference in our evaluation to accelerate experiments. The batch inference does not significantly change average scores, but individual scores may vary slightly (about ±0.1~0.2). To strictly reproduce the official results, the use of 8 devices (GPUs) is required; the number of devices influences batch construction, affecting the final scores. We used the default batch size specified in each task config, except for the largest model (Honeybee-C-13B-M576) where we used B=8 due to memory constraints.

Inference and Demo

Example code for the inference is provided in inference_example.ipynb. The example images in ./examples are adopted from mPLUG-Owl.

We also provide gradio demo:

python -m serve.web_server --bf16 --port {PORT} --base-model checkpoints/7B-C-Abs-M144/last
