Evaluation of model performance on the VQA Mean dataset for medical visual question answering, reporting Closed and Open metrics.

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) | VQA Mean |
| Metric | Closed Accuracy |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 11 of 11 |
| 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

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

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