I am unable to reproduce the MMBench-EN results reported for Janus-Pro-7B. Specifically, when evaluating the model using lmms-eval, I obtained the following scores:

  • mmbench_en_dev: 65.81
  • mmbench_en_test: 65.98

These are significantly lower than the score of 79.2 reported in the paper:

"Janus-Pro-7B achieved a score of 79.2 on the multimodal understanding benchmark MMBench."

Additionally, the score for Janus-Pro-7B on the MMBench leaderboard and opencompass is also relatively low, consistent with my observations.

Could you please clarify:

  • What evaluation settings or prompts were used to achieve the reported score of 79.2?
  • Is there any preprocessing or special configuration required?
  • Are the leaderboard and paper scores based on different evaluation protocols or updated model versions?

Thank you in advance for your help.
