CharXiv Reasoning

Can a multimodal model reason over the real, messy charts in scientific papers — combining values, trends and labels across a figure — rather than read off templated plots? Maintained by Princeton Language and Intelligence. Score: Reasoning accuracy in percent on the validation split: the share of its 1,000 reasoning questions (one per chart) answered correctly, each final answer extracted and scored 0/1 against the ground truth by GPT-4o.
