RVL-CDIP is a popular dataset for benchmarking document classifiers. However, the dataset contains ample amounts of label errors as well as non-trivial amounts of test-train overlap, both of which may impact model performance metrics. In this paper, we address these two problems by (1) finding and fixing label errors, and (2) detecting and addressing test-train overlap. We produce several variations of RVL-CDIP with label error and test-train overlap fixes, and benchmark document classification performance on these new RVL-CDIP variations. Our rigorous analysis of RVL-CDIP finds that the corpus contains 12\% label error and approximately 35% test-train duplication. Remediation sees improvements in classification accuracy when errors are removed, but sees decreases in accuracy when duplicates are removed. We additionally evaluate models on RVL-CDIP-N, an out-of-distribution benchmark, finding that training on error-corrected data substantially improves OOD generalization, with supervised models gaining an average of 8.1 percentage points in accuracy and improvements as large as 14 percentage points.
Although large language models (LLMs) exhibit remarkable reasoning capabilities, their reliance on text-only pre-training restricts the perception of the multimodal physical world. Native multimodal pre-training avoids this limitation by training models from scratch on multimodal…
Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly deployed on consumer hardware where input images are degraded by compression, camera shake, and poor lighting. In such settings, a reliable uncertainty signal matters more than raw accuracy, because it determines when a system should…
Image inpainting aims to reconstruct missing or corrupted regions of an image while preserving as much as possible, visual and semantic consistency. In medical imaging, this task is particularly important because artifacts, missing information, and pathological alterations can co…
Reading a social situation often depends on behavior, not words alone. We introduce FriendBench, a benchmark for inferring whether two people are already familiar or are meeting as strangers, from a 20-second clip of a dyadic ice-breaker conversation. Every pair answers the same…
Reinforcement learning (RL) post-training of Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models has shown strong promise for robotic manipulation. Among RL methods, critic-based approaches rely on a value estimator that predominantly operates on single-frame observations or single-frame VLM bac…
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are emerging as core reasoning modules for embodied agents, yet it remains unclear how well general-purpose models can solve long-horizon embodied tasks from a single high-level instruction. We introduce MissionBench, a benchmark for missi…
