Typed relationship
Choose Awesome-Multimodal-Large-Language-Models if…
- The repository provides a list of resources regarding multmodal LLMs, which is the domain that lmms-eval aims to evaluate and improve upon, though it does not directly integrate or depend on this resource.
- Tags unique to Awesome-Multimodal-Large-Language-Models: chain-of-thought, in-context-learning, instruction-following, instruction-tuning.
- Also covers LLM Frameworks.
- - You need comprehensive resources for evaluating multimodal LLMs and want access to the latest research findings in this area.
When NOT to use Awesome-Multimodal-Large-Language-Models
- - If your primary focus is on single-modality language models, without a need to integrate visual or audio elements.
- - If you prefer tools that provide hands-on implementation guidance rather than surveys and benchmarks for theoretical exploration.
Choose lmms-eval if…
- The repository provides a list of resources regarding multmodal LLMs, which is the domain that lmms-eval aims to evaluate and improve upon, though it does not directly integrate or depend on this resource.
- Tags unique to lmms-eval: agi, audio-evaluation, benchmark, evaluation.
- You need to evaluate LLaVA series models on different datasets with precise control over reproducibility details like torch/cuda versions.
When NOT to use lmms-eval
- Looking for a tool that supports less than Python 3.12, as uv setup mandates this version.
- Requiring support beyond text, image, video, and audio modalities which lmms-eval specifically covers.
- Your project doesn't benefit from extensive results tracking in Google Sheets or relies solely on alternative reproducibility mechanisms without external dependencies.
