<img src="https://github.com/antgroup/HumanSense/blob/main/docs/figure1.png?raw=true" width="100%"/> <p align="justify"><i>While Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) show immense promise for achieving truly human-like interactions, progress is hindered by the lack of fine-grained evaluation frameworks for human-centered scenarios, encompassing both the understanding of complex human intentions and the provision of empathetic, context-aware responses. Here we introduce HumanSense, a comprehensive benchmark designed to evaluate the human-centered perception and interaction capabilities of MLLMs, with a particular focus on deep understanding of extended multimodal contexts and the formulation of rational feedback. Our evaluation reveals that leading MLLMs still have considerable room for improvement, particularly for advanced interaction-oriented tasks. Supplementing visual input with audio and text information yields substantial improvements, and Omni-modal models show advantages on these tasks. Furthermore, we argue that appropriate feedback stems from a contextual analysis of the interlocutor's needs and emotions, with reasoning ability serving as the key to unlocking it. Accordingly, we employ a multi-stage, modality-progressive reinforcement learning to enhance the reasoning abilities of an Omni model, achieving substantial gains on evaluation results. Additionally, we observe that successful reasoning processes exhibit highly consistent thought patterns. By designing corresponding prompts, we also enhance the performance of non-reasoning models in a training-free manner.

HumanSense

The evaluation tasks are organized into a four-tier pyramid structure (L1–L4) according to increasing levels of difficulty: <img src="https://github.com/antgroup/HumanSense/blob/main/docs/figure2.png?raw=true" width="100%"/>

Results

Evaluation Setups: We conduct a comprehensive evaluation of leading Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) with sizes up to 10B, including: (1) Visual LLMs, which represent the most mainstream branch of MLLMs today; (2) Audio LLMs; and (3) Omni-modal LLMs that are natively designed for integrating vision, audio, and text. <img src="https://github.com/antgroup/HumanSense/blob/main/docs/table1.png?raw=true" width="100%"/>

RUN Your Own Evaluation

Download the test code from here

Requirements

• Configure the environment required for the model to be tested; the benchmark has no special requirements.

• ffmpeg

  conda activate Modelxx_env (the environment corresponding to the tested model.)
  cd HumanSense-main
  wget https://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-4.4.tar.gz
  tar -xvf ffmpeg-4.4.tar.gz
  cd ffmpeg-4.4
  ./configure
  make
  sudo make install
  

Installation

• Download Dataset: Retrieve all necessary files from the folder bench_data in 🤗 HumanSense_Benchmark.

• Decompress Files: Extract the downloaded files and organize them in the ./HumanSense_bench directory as follows:

  HumanSense-main/
  ├── HumanSense_bench/src/data
  │   ├── audios/           
  │   ├── videos/             
  │   ├── HumanSense_AQA.json           
  │   └── HumanSense_VQA.json        
  

Evaluation

• Model Preparation: Prepare your own model for evaluation by following the instructions provided here. This guide will help you set up and configure your model to ensure it is ready for testing against the dataset. Now you can run the benchmark:

• Run and score:

  cd HumanSense-main
  sh HumanSense_bench/eval.sh
  sh HumanSense_bench/eval_audio.sh
  sh HumanSense_bench/score.sh
  

Training Omni Model

We train Qwen25-Omni-7B using 8 x H20 (96G) GPUs

Requirements

# First, configure the environment required to run Qwen25-Omni-7B.
conda activate omni
pip install accelerate
# It's highly recommended to use `[decord]` feature for faster video loading.
pip install qwen-omni-utils[decord] -U


# configure the training requirements
cd HumanSense-main/Open-R1-Video
pip3 install -e ".[dev]"
pip uninstall transformers
unzip transformers-main.zip
cd transformers-main
pip install -e .
cd ..
pip install nvidia-cublas-cu12 -U
pip3 install flash_attn --no-build-isolation
pip uninstall qwen-omni-utils
cd qwen-omni-utils
pip install -e .
cd ..
pip uninstall qwen-vl-utils
cd qwen-vl-utils
pip install -e .
cd ..

pip install qwen-omni-utils[decord] -U
pip install trl==0.14.0
pip install tensorboardX 

Datas Installation

• Download Dataset: Retrieve all necessary files from the folder train_data in 🤗 HumanSense_Benchmark.

• Decompress Files: Extract the downloaded files and organize them in the ./Open-R1-Video directory as follows:

  HumanSense-main/
  ├── Open-R1-Video/data
  │   ├── audios/           
  │   ├── videos/             
  │   ├── merged_video_wo_audio.json
  │   ├── merged_video_audio.json           
  │   └── merged_video_w_audio.json 
  

Training

• Run:

  cd HumanSense-main
  sh Open-R1-Video/framework1/qwen-7b_omni_1video_wo_audio.sh
  sh Open-R1-Video/qwen-7b_omni_2audio.sh
  sh Open-R1-Video/framework2/qwen-7b_omni_3video_w_audio.sh
  

At any stage of training, if the loaded weights do not contain spk_dict.pt, please copy Open-R1-Video/experiments/spk_dict.pt to it.

We release the trained model in 🤗 HumanSense_Omni_Reasoning

• Inference: Modify the model name to "rivideo-omni7B", and subsequently update the loaded weights to the trained ones.

 cd HumanSense-main
 sh HumanSense_bench/eval.sh
 sh HumanSense_bench/eval_audio.sh
 sh HumanSense_bench/score.sh
