Abstract


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. The evaluation of 28 open-source LMMs as well as the proprietary GPT-4V(ision) and Gemini highlights the substantial challenges posed by MMMU. Even the advanced GPT-4V and Gemini Ultra only achieve accuracies of 56% and 59% respectively indicating significant room for improvement. We believe MMMU will stimulate the community to build next-generation multimodal foundation models towards expert artificial general intelligence.
