Math-LLaVA: Bootstrapping Mathematical Reasoning for Multimodal Large Language Models
CoRR(2024)
Abstract
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive reasoning
capabilities, particularly in textual mathematical problem-solving. However,
existing open-source image instruction fine-tuning datasets, containing limited
question-answer pairs per image, do not fully exploit visual information to
enhance the multimodal mathematical reasoning capabilities of Multimodal LLMs
(MLLMs). To bridge this gap, we address the lack of high-quality, diverse
multimodal mathematical datasets by collecting 40K high-quality images with
question-answer pairs from 24 existing datasets and synthesizing 320K new
pairs, creating the MathV360K dataset, which enhances both the breadth and
depth of multimodal mathematical questions. We introduce Math-LLaVA, a
LLaVA-1.5-based model fine-tuned with MathV360K. This novel approach
significantly improves the multimodal mathematical reasoning capabilities of
LLaVA-1.5, achieving a 19-point increase and comparable performance to GPT-4V
on MathVista's minitest split. Furthermore, Math-LLaVA demonstrates enhanced
generalizability, showing substantial improvements on the MMMU benchmark. Our
research highlights the importance of dataset diversity and synthesis in
advancing MLLMs' mathematical reasoning abilities. The code and data are
