Kaleidoscope: In-language Exams for Massively Multilingual Vision Evaluation

ICLR 2026poster

The evaluation of vision-language models (VLMs) has mainly relied on English-language benchmarks, leaving significant gaps in both multilingual and multicultural coverage. While multilingual benchmarks have expanded, both in size and language, many rely on translations of English datasets, failing t…
