- Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) such as GPT-4V have recently demonstrated
incredible strides on diverse vision language tasks. We dig into vision-based
deductive reasoning, a more sophisticated but less explored realm, and find
previously unexposed blindspots in the current SOTA VLMs. Specifically, we
leverage Raven's Progressive Matrices (RPMs), to assess VLMs' abilities to
perform multi-hop relational and deductive reasoning relying solely on visual
clues. We perform comprehensive evaluations of several popular VLMs employing
standard strategies such as in-context learning, self-consistency, and
Chain-of-thoughts (CoT) on three diverse datasets, including the Mensa IQ test,
IntelligenceTest, and RAVEN. The results reveal that despite the impressive
capabilities of LLMs in text-based reasoning, we are still far from achieving
comparable proficiency in visual deductive reasoning. We found that certain
standard strategies that are effective when applied to LLMs do not seamlessly
translate to the challenges presented by visual reasoning tasks. Moreover, a
detailed analysis reveals that VLMs struggle to solve these tasks mainly
because they are unable to perceive and comprehend multiple, confounding
abstract patterns in RPM examples.

Context-aware emotion recognition (CAER) is a complex and significant task that requires perceiving emotions from various contextual cues.
Previous approaches primarily focus on designing sophisticated architectures to extract emotional cues from images.
This paper systematically explore the potential of leveraging Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) to empower the CAER task.

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown great promise in language-guided tasks such as recognition, segmentation, and object detection.
One such challenge is abstract visual reasoning (AVR) -- the cognitive ability to discern relationships among patterns in a set of images and extrapolate to predict subsequent patterns.
We propose new dataset MaRs-VQA and a new benchmark VCog-Bench to evaluate the zero-shot capability of MLLMs.

We show that visual instruction tuning, a prevailing strategy for transitioning LLMs into MLLMs, unexpectedly and interestingly helps models attain both improved truthfulness and ethical alignment.
