DataComp-VLM: Improved Open Datasets for Vision-Language Models
Matteo Farina, Vishaal Udandarao, Thao Nguyen, Selim Kuzucu, Maximilian Böther, Andreas Hochlehnert, et al.
Building performant Vision-Language Models (VLMs) requires carefully curating large-scale training datasets, yet the community lacks systematic benchmarks for evaluating such curation strategies. We introduce DataComp for VLMs (DCVLM), a benchmark for controlled data-centric expe…
