Recent advancements in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated impressive fine-grained perception capabilities. However, existing benchmarks predominantly rely on explicit textual cues or low-resolution inputs, failing to evaluate a model's ability to autonomously perceive implicit visual cues in high-resolution. To bridge this gap, we introduce DiCoBench, a comprehensive, multi-image high-resolution benchmark designed for cross-image fine-grained perception. DiCoBench consists of 765 meticulously curated samples categorized into two progressive tracks: Differential Visual Cues and Commonality Visual Cues, covering 8 distinct perception tasks. By formulating the benchmark as a multiple-choice question task and utilizing high-resolution imagery (approaching 2K), we eliminate evaluation metric bias and pose a substantial challenge to current state-of-the-art MLLMs. Our extensive evaluation of 18 diverse MLLMs reveals a striking performance gap compared to human accuracy (98.3%), with top-performing models struggling significantly with micro-scale detail capture. We believe DiCoBench will serve as a challenging testbed to drive future research in autonomous, high-resolution multi-image perception.
We introduce PerceptionBench, a benchmark specifically designed to evaluate the atomic visual perception capabilities of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs). Existing benchmarks often fail to isolate perception: holistic evaluations conflate perceptual errors with failures in reasoning or domain knowledge, while application-driven benchmarks only cover narrow, fragmented domains shaped by heuristic designs. To address these limitations, PerceptionBench adopts a bottom-up approach: by diagnosing the earliest failure points in the responses of frontier MLLMs across 42 existing benchmarks, we construct an error taxonomy whose perception branch defines ten atomic perceptual capabilities. Guided by this taxonomy, we construct 3,000 verified questions with short, unambiguous answers, each isolating a single capability, with difficulty stemming from perception rather than reasoning or knowledge. Benchmark results across sixteen frontier MLLMs reveal that atomic perception remains largely unsolved---no model reaches 60% accuracy, perception-related hallucination is the weakest capability on average, and similar overall scores conceal sharply divergent capability profiles. PerceptionBench thus provides a capability-level standard for measuring and diagnosing the visual perception boundaries of MLLMs.
Recent advancements in Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have demonstrated remarkable multimodal perception and reasoning capabilities. While numerous benchmarks have evaluated LVLMs from holistic or task-specific perspectives, their capabilities on fine-grained image tasks-fundamental to computer vision-remain insufficiently understood. To address this gap, we introduce FG-BMK, a comprehensive fine-grained evaluation benchmark containing 1.01 million questions and 0.28 million images, covering diverse scenarios from common object-centric domains to specialized domains. FG-BMK jointly evaluates dialogue-level fine-grained semantic recognition and feature-level visual discriminability through human-oriented and machine-oriented paradigms, enabling diagnostic analysis of whether LVLM failures arise from insufficient visual representations, weak visual-to-semantic grounding, or limited fine-grained knowledge. Through extensive experiments on a diverse set of representative LVLMs/VLMs, we find that current LVLMs remain inadequate fine-grained recognizers, with failures arising from intertwined bottlenecks in visual representations, semantic grounding, modality alignment, and category-level knowledge. We further analyze training design factors for improving fine-grained capabilities and examine how visual and linguistic perturbations affect LVLM predictions. These findings provide diagnostic insights into the limitations of current LVLMs and offer guidance for future data construction and model design in developing more reliable LVLMs for fine-grained visual tasks. Our code is open-source and available at https://fg-bmk.github.io/.
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed in multi-image scenarios requiring complex reasoning across visual contexts. However, current MLLMs remain fundamentally limited by object hallucination-generating plausible yet factually inconsistent descriptions about objects. Existing benchmarks, designed primarily for single-image settings or providing only high-level multi-image assessments, cannot systematically diagnose how visual complexity and reasoning demands trigger hallucination. To address this gap, we introduce MIOH, a fine-grained multi-image object hallucination benchmark that systematically evaluates object hallucination across four foundational tasks (existence, counting, attribute, position) through three multi-image reasoning patterns (comprehensive, comparative, selective) under three controlled adversarial pressures (visual context scale, perceptual difficulty, contextual bias). Through evaluation of 29 models, we reveal that even state-of-the-art systems like GPT-5 and Gemini-2.5-Pro exhibit distinct failure patterns across different reasoning patterns and tasks. Our evaluation reveals that hallucination stems not merely from perceptual failures but from integration-stage limitations when maintaining object representations across multiple images. MIOH provides a controlled framework for analyzing multi-image object hallucination and serves as a critical evaluation tool for developing more reliable multimodal AI systems.
