👀 About MathVista

Large Language Models (LLMs) and Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) exhibit impressive problem-solving skills in many tasks and domains, but their ability in mathematical reasoning in visual contexts has not been systematically studied. To bridge this gap, we present MathVista, a benchmark designed to combine challenges from diverse mathematical and visual tasks. It consists of 6,141 examples, derived from 28 existing multimodal datasets involving mathematics and 3 newly created datasets (i.e., IQTest, FunctionQA, and PaperQA). Completing these tasks requires fine-grained, deep visual understanding and compositional reasoning, which all state-of-the-art foundation models find challenging.

Source dataset distribution of MathVista.

In October 2023, we conducted a comprehensive, quantitative evaluation of 12 prominent foundation models with MathVista. The best-performing GPT-4V model achieved an overall accuracy of 49.9%, substantially outperforming Bard, the second-best performer, by 15.1%. Our in-depth analysis revealed that the superiority of GPT-4V is mainly attributed to its enhanced visual perception and mathematical reasoning. However, GPT-4V still falls short of human performance by 10.4%, as it often struggles to understand complex figures and perform rigorous reasoning. This significant gap underscores the critical role that MathVista will play in the development of general-purpose AI agents capable of tackling mathematically intensive and visually rich real-world tasks.

Accuracy scores the testmini set (1,000 examples) of MathVista.

We further explore the new ability of self-verification, the use of self-consistency, and the goal-directed multi-turn human-AI dialogues, highlighting the promising potential of GPT-4V for future research.

📖 Dataset Usage

Data Source

The MathVista dataset is derived from three newly collected datasets: IQTest, FunctionQA, and Paper, as well as 28 other source datasets. Details can be found in the source.json file. All these source datasets have been preprocessed and labeled for evaluation purposes.

Data Downloading

All the data examples were divided into two subsets: testmini and test.

testmini: 1,000 examples used for model development, validation, or for those with limited computing resources.
test: 5,141 examples for standard evaluation. Notably, the answer labels for test will NOT be publicly released.

You can download this dataset by the following command (make sure that you have installed Huggingface Datasets):

from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("AI4Math/MathVista")

Here are some examples of how to access the downloaded dataset:

# print the first example on the testmini set
print(dataset["testmini"][0])
print(dataset["testmini"][0]['pid']) # print the problem id 
print(dataset["testmini"][0]['question']) # print the question text 
print(dataset["testmini"][0]['query']) # print the query text
print(dataset["testmini"][0]['image']) # print the image path
print(dataset["testmini"][0]['answer']) # print the answer
dataset["testmini"][0]['decoded_image'] # display the image

# print the first example on the test set
print(dataset["test"][0])

We have uploaded a demo to illustrate how to access the MathVista dataset on Hugging Face, available at hugging_face_dataset_demo.ipynb.

🔮 Evaluations on MathVista

Requirements (Optional)

Install the Python dependencies if you would like to reproduce our results for ChatGPT, GPT-4, Claude-2, and Bard:

pip install openai # for ChatGPT and GPT-4
pip install anthropic # for Claude-2
pip install bardapi # for Bard

For more details, please refer to:

OpenAI API key
Claude API Key
Bard API Key

If you are considering evaluating your own model, these dependencies might be optional.

Downloading Images (Optional)

We provide images in the JPG format. You can download and unzip them using the following commands:

cd data
wget https://huggingface.co/datasets/AI4Math/MathVista/resolve/main/images.zip
unzip images.zip && rm images.zip

This step might be optional if you prefer to use the Hugging Face format of the data.

Evaluation Pipelines

Recent foundation models have been trained to generate longer responses instead of brief text. As such, we propose a new strategy for benchmarking MathVista. This evaluation process comprises three stages:

(Step 1) Response Generation (generate_response.py): The models generate responses based on the given input query (prompt). This input query integrates the task description, the question, choices, and metadata. Such a design encourage the models yield responses in the desired format, subsequently enhancing the overall evaluation scores. An example of such an input query is:

Hint: Please answer the question and provide the correct option letter, e.g., A, B, C, D, at the end.
Question: Find $m\\angle H$
Choices:
(A) 97
(B) 102
(C) 107
(D) 122

The task description is defined as follows:

Question type	Answer type	Task instruction
Multiple-choice	Text	Please answer the question and provide the correct option letter, e.g., A, B, C, D, at the end.
Free-form	Integer	Please answer the question requiring an integer answer and provide the final value, e.g., 1, 2, 3, at the end.
Free-form	Float (1)	Please answer the question requiring a floating-point number with one decimal place and provide the final value, e.g., 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, at the end.
Free-form	Float (2)	Please answer the question requiring a floating-point number with two decimal places and provide the final value, e.g., 1.23, 1.34, 1.45, at the end.
Free-form	List	Please answer the question requiring a Python list as an answer and provide the final list, e.g., [1, 2, 3], [1.2, 1.3, 1.4], at the end.

(Step 2) Answer Extraction (extract_answer.py): Next, the short answer text is extracted from the detailed response. We propose an answer extractor based on LLMs such as GPT-4. A preliminary study of 200 examples shows that GPT-4 can extract the answer text with more than 99.5% accuracy. Below are examples of extracting short answers from long responses:

# Example 1
Hint: Please answer the question requiring an integer answer and provide the final value,
e.g., 1, 2, 3, at the end.
Question: Which number is missing?

Model response: The number missing in the sequence is 14.

Extracted answer: 14

# Example 2
Hint: Please answer the question and provide the correct option letter, e.g., A, B, C,
D, at the end.
Question: What fraction of the shape is blue?
Choices: 
(A) 3/11 
(B) 8/11 
(C) 6/11 
(D) 3/5

Model response: The correct answer is (B) 8/11.

Extracted answer: B

(Step 3) Score Calculation (calculate_score.py): Finally, the extracted answer is normalized to a required answer format (e.g., an option letter or an integer), and the target metric scores are computed.

📝 Evaluation Scripts of Our Models

To execute the evaluation scripts in our paper, ensure your data folder has the following structure:

├── query.json
├── test.json
├── testmini.json

    └── ...
└── texts
    ├── captions_bard.json
    └── ocrs_easyocr.json

Additionally, ensure that the API keys for ChatGPT, GPT-4, Claude-2, and Bard are properly set up.
