Evaluation of model performance on the VL Reasoning Benchmarks suite for Vision-Language Reasoning tasks, reporting scores across MVista, MVerse, and MVision components.

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 | Vision-Language Reasoning |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | VL Reasoning Benchmarks |
| Metric | MVista Score |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 28 of 28 |
| 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

- [MVista Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/vision-language-reasoning-on-vl-reasoning-benchmarks.md?metric=MVista%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [MVerse Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/vision-language-reasoning-on-vl-reasoning-benchmarks.md?metric=MVerse%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [MVision Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/vision-language-reasoning-on-vl-reasoning-benchmarks.md?metric=MVision%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Average Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/vision-language-reasoning-on-vl-reasoning-benchmarks.md?metric=Average%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [MMMU Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/vision-language-reasoning-on-vl-reasoning-benchmarks.md?metric=MMMU%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [R1-OV Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/vision-language-reasoning-on-vl-reasoning-benchmarks.md?metric=R1-OV%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [MMStar Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/vision-language-reasoning-on-vl-reasoning-benchmarks.md?metric=MMStar%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
