Evaluation of model performance on the SLAKE 12 dataset for Medical Visual Question Answering, reporting F1, Open Recall, LLM Open, and Closed Accuracy.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Medical Visual Question Answering |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Slake 12 |
| Metric | F1 |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 15 of 15 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [F1](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/medical-visual-question-answering-on-slake-12.md?metric=F1>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Open Recall](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/medical-visual-question-answering-on-slake-12.md?metric=Open%20Recall>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [LLM Open Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/medical-visual-question-answering-on-slake-12.md?metric=LLM%20Open%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Closed Accuracy](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/medical-visual-question-answering-on-slake-12.md?metric=Closed%20Accuracy>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
