**VLMEvalKit** (the python package name is **vlmeval**) is an **open-source evaluation toolkit** of **large vision-language models (LVLMs)**. It enables **one-command evaluation** of LVLMs on various benchmarks, without the heavy workload of data preparation under multiple repositories. In VLMEvalKit, we adopt **generation-based evaluation** for all LVLMs, and provide the evaluation results obtained with both **exact matching** and **LLM-based answer extraction**.

## Recent Codebase Changes
- **[2025-09-12]** **Major Update: Improved Handling for Models with Thinking Mode**

    A new feature in [PR 1229](https://github.com/open-compass/VLMEvalKit/pull/1175) that improves support for models with thinking mode. VLMEvalKit now allows for the use of a custom `split_thinking` function. **We strongly recommend this for models with thinking mode to ensure the accuracy of evaluation**.  To use this new functionality, please enable the Environment Variable: `SPLIT_THINK=True`. By default, the function will parse content within `<think>...</think>` tags and store it in the `thinking` key of the output. For more advanced customization, you can also create a `split_think` function for model. Please see the InternVL implementation for an example.
- **[2025-09-12]** **Major Update: Improved Handling for Long Response(More than 16k/32k)**

    A new feature in [PR 1229](https://github.com/open-compass/VLMEvalKit/pull/1175) that improves support for models with long response outputs. VLMEvalKit can now save prediction files in TSV format. **Since individual cells in an `.xlsx` file are limited to 32,767 characters, we strongly recommend using this feature for models that generate long responses (e.g., exceeding 16k or 32k tokens) to prevent data truncation.** To use this new functionality, please enable the Environment Variable: `PRED_FORMAT=tsv`.
- **[2025-08-04]** In [PR 1175](https://github.com/open-compass/VLMEvalKit/pull/1175), we refine the `can_infer_option` and `can_infer_text`, which increasingly route the evaluation to LLM choice extractors and empirically leads to slight performance improvement for MCQ benchmarks.

## 🎯 The Goal of VLMEvalKit

**The codebase is designed to:**

1. Provide an **easy-to-use**, **opensource evaluation toolkit** to make it convenient for researchers & developers to evaluate existing LVLMs and make evaluation results **easy to reproduce**.
2. Make it easy for VLM developers to evaluate their own models. To evaluate the VLM on multiple supported benchmarks, one just need to **implement a single `generate_inner()` function**, all other workloads (data downloading, data preprocessing, prediction inference, metric calculation) are handled by the codebase.

**The codebase is not designed to:**

1. Reproduce the exact accuracy number reported in the original papers of all **3rd party benchmarks**. The reason can be two-fold:
   1. VLMEvalKit uses **generation-based evaluation** for all VLMs (and optionally with **LLM-based answer extraction**). Meanwhile, some benchmarks may use different approaches (SEEDBench uses PPL-based evaluation, *eg.*). For those benchmarks, we compare both scores in the corresponding result. We encourage developers to support other evaluation paradigms in the codebase.
   2. By default, we use the same prompt template for all VLMs to evaluate on a benchmark. Meanwhile, **some VLMs may have their specific prompt templates** (some may not covered by the codebase at this time). We encourage VLM developers to implement their own prompt template in VLMEvalKit, if that is not covered currently. That will help to improve the reproducibility.
