**OCRBench v2** is a large-scale bilingual text-centric benchmark with currently the most comprehensive set of tasks (4× more tasks than the previous multi-scene benchmark OCRBench), the widest coverage of scenarios (31 diverse scenarios including street scene, receipt, formula, diagram, and so on), and thorough evaluation metrics, with a total of 10, 000 human-verified question-answering pairs and a high proportion of difficult samples. More details can be found in [OCRBench v2 README](./OCRBench_v2/README.md).
**OCRBench** is a comprehensive evaluation benchmark designed to assess the OCR capabilities of Large Multimodal Models. It comprises five components: Text Recognition, SceneText-Centric VQA, Document-Oriented VQA, Key Information Extraction, and Handwritten Mathematical Expression Recognition. The benchmark includes 1000 question-answer pairs, and all the answers undergo manual verification and correction to ensure a more precise evaluation. More details can be found in [OCRBench README](./OCRBench/README.md).
* ```2025.6.21``` 🚀 We realese the private dataset of OCRBench v2 and will update [Leaderboard](https://99franklin.github.io/ocrbench_v2/) every quarter.
* ```2024.5.19 ``` 🚀 We realese [DTVQA](https://github.com/ShuoZhang2003/DT-VQA), to explore the Capabilities of Large Multimodal Models on Dense Text.
* ```2024.5.01 ``` 🚀 Thanks to [SWHL](https://github.com/Yuliang-Liu/MultimodalOCR/issues/29) for releasing [ChineseOCRBench](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SWHL/ChineseOCRBench).
