sora 13274243a0 Bump vendored EvalScope and add K3-ready DPV4 configs.
Keep K3 suite selection and report-schema scoring in bash, merge K3/vision dataset_args into dpv4 yamls, and pin EvalScope at 735d920ee911 with local patches.

# CountQA
## Overview
CountQA probes object counting, a basic perceptual skill that multimodal models are largely
unevaluated on. Its images were hand-captured in everyday environments and deliberately feature
high object density, clutter and occlusion, so counting cannot be solved by detecting a handful of
well-separated objects.
## Task Description
- **Task Type**: Free-form Visual Question Answering (object counting)
- **Input**: A real-world photograph + a counting question (e.g. "How many jackets are there?")
- **Output**: A single integer
- **Domain**: Everyday scenes — groceries, kitchenware, tools, clothing, office and outdoor objects
## Key Features
- 1,528 question-answer pairs over 1,001 images; an image may carry several questions
- Ground-truth counts were annotated *in situ* during capture rather than post-hoc, and range from 0 to 400
- Questions include compositional ones that require summing over several object types
- Roughly half the images are cluttered rather than focused on a single subject (recorded as
``is_focused`` in each sample's metadata), and scene categories are recorded as ``categories``
## Evaluation Notes
- Default evaluation uses the **test** split as a single subset
- Primary metric: **Accuracy** (`accuracy`) — Exact Match against the ground-truth integer
- Secondary metric: **relaxed_acc** — the paper's Relaxed Accuracy, counting a prediction correct
when it is within 5% of the ground truth
- The paper's system prompt is used as-is; it constrains the reply to a bare integer
- Answer parsing takes the reply if it is already an integer, otherwise its first integer — the
rule the paper states for its rewriter LLM. A reply with no digit scores 0, so `max_tokens` must
leave the model room to reach its answer; a model that narrates its count ("row 1 has 3 ...") is
scored on the first number it mentions rather than on its stated total
- Scoring is deterministic arithmetic and needs no LLM judge: keep `judge.strategy` at `rule` or
`auto`, since `llm` replaces both metrics with a generic judge score. To read a different number
out of a model that ignores the output format, prepend a per-run filter such as
`filters={'regex': {'regex_pattern': '(\d+)', 'group_select': -1}}` (last number) via
`dataset_args` rather than editing the adapter

## Prompt Template
**System Prompt:**
```text
You are a helpful assistant that counts the number of items in an image. The user will provide an image and ask a question about the number of a certain type of item in the image. If the user question is referring to multiple objects, it means that you need to provide a sum of the number of items. You will count the number of items and return the number as an integer. Your output should STRICTLY be a single integer and nothing else.
```
*No prompt template defined.*
## Usage
### Using CLI
```bash
evalscope eval \
--model YOUR_MODEL \
--api-url OPENAI_API_COMPAT_URL \
--api-key EMPTY_TOKEN \
--datasets count_qa \
--limit 10 # Remove this line for formal evaluation
```
### Using Python
```python
from evalscope import run_task
from evalscope.config import TaskConfig
task_cfg = TaskConfig(
model='YOUR_MODEL',
api_url='OPENAI_API_COMPAT_URL',
api_key='EMPTY_TOKEN',
datasets=['count_qa'],
limit=10, # Remove this line for formal evaluation
)
run_task(task_cfg=task_cfg)
```
