MME-VideoOCR: Evaluating OCR-Based Capabilities of Multimodal LLMs in Video Scenarios

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have achieved considerable accuracy in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) from static images. However, their efficacy in video OCR is significantly diminished due to factors such as motion blur, temporal variations, and visual effects inherent in video content. To provide clearer guidance for training practical MLLMs, we introduce MME-VideoOCR benchmark, which encompasses a comprehensive range of video OCR application scenarios.
