Extended Reasoning With Chain Of Thought For Complex Visual Tasks

via “visual-reasoning-over-complex-scenes”

Open multimodal model for visual reasoning.

Unique: Trained on 77K complex reasoning samples (49% of instruction-tuning dataset) generated by GPT-4, explicitly optimizing for multi-step inference over visual content; this heavy weighting toward reasoning tasks differentiates it from captioning-focused vision models

vs others: Outperforms general-purpose vision models on reasoning-heavy benchmarks like Science QA (92.53% accuracy) because nearly half its training data is reasoning-focused, whereas models like CLIP or standard captioning systems optimize for classification or description
