Description

CG-Bench contains 1,219 long videos annotated with 12,129 question-answer pairs, covering a variety of categories (14 primary, 171 secondary, 638 tertiary). The dataset focuses on questions that require retrieving relevant clues from the videos in order to assess the real understanding of the models.

What is this dataset for?

  • Test and improve video comprehension of multimodal language models (MLLMs)
  • Evaluate the ability of models to reason over long video sequences based on specific clues
  • Develop robust video question and answer systems beyond simple multiple choices

Can it be enriched or improved?

Yes, it's possible to add new annotations, extend video categories, or refine hints for more granular ratings. The community can also propose additional data or alternative annotation formats to enrich the benchmark.
