MM-JudgeBench
Dataset Summary
MM-JudgeBench is a multilingual multimodal preference benchmark for evaluating vision-language judge and reward models. Each row contains an image reference, a query, two candidate responses, and a preference label.
The dataset includes three configurations:
m-vl-rewardbenchm-opencqam-mm-rewardbench
Each configuration provides two splits:
originalreversed
In the reversed split, the response order is swapped and the preference label
is inverted.
Supported Tasks
- Multimodal preference evaluation
- Vision-language judge model evaluation
- Reward model evaluation

Image Paths
The image_path field points to the corresponding image file in the dataset
repository.

images/m-opencqa/0.png
images/m-mm-rewardbench/nocaps/13062.jpg
Images are stored as files in the dataset repository and are referenced by
image_path. When loading the dataset with datasets.load_dataset, the
image_path column is returned as a string. To access the image from the Hub,
download the referenced file with huggingface_hub.hf_hub_download:
from datasets import load_dataset
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
from PIL import Image
repo_id = "tahmedge/MM-JudgeBench"
ds = load_dataset(repo_id, "m-vl-rewardbench", split="original")
row = ds[0]
image_file = hf_hub_download(
repo_id=repo_id,
filename=row["image_path"],
repo_type="dataset",
)
image = Image.open(image_file)
If you clone the dataset repository locally, open images by joining the local
repository path with image_path:
from pathlib import Path
from PIL import Image
repo_root = Path("MM-JudgeBench")
image = Image.open(repo_root / row["image_path"])
To download the full dataset repository, including all image files, clone it with Git LFS enabled:
git lfs install
git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/tahmedge/MM-JudgeBench
cd MM-JudgeBench
git lfs pull
After cloning, all image files are available under the local images/
directory, and every image_path value can be resolved relative to the cloned
repository root.
