Existing Chinese preference datasets suffer from limited scale, restricted domain coverage, and insufficiently rigorous data validation. Human annotation significantly limits the scalability of human preference datasets. As a result, Chinese Alignment and Chinese Reward Models (CRM) have not yet been thoroughly explored. To address these challenges, we design an LLM-based data annotation pipeline with no human intervention. Based on this pipeline, we curate COIG-P (Chinese Open Instruction Generalist - Preference), a high-quality, large-scale Chinese preference dataset consisting of 1M Chinese preference pairs and 92k carefully curated Chinese queries across diverse domains, including Chat, Coding, Maths, and others. We conduct experiments to verify the quality of COIG-P from two perspectives. (1) COIG-P brings significant performance improvements for the Qwen2/2.5 and Infinity-Instruct model series on AlignBench through DPO, with gains ranging from 2% to 12%. Furthermore, it significantly outperforms other existing Chinese preference datasets. (2) We train an 8B-sized CRM and manually annotate a Chinese Reward Benchmark (CRBench). Our CRM demonstrates robust scoring ability on CRBench. In addition, in practical data construction experiments, the quality of the data constructed by our CRM is comparable to that produced by GPT-4o.

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are measured on numerous benchmarks like image captioning, visual question answer, and reasoning. However, these benchmarks often include overly simple or uninformative samples, making it difficult to effectively distinguish the performance of different MLLMs. Additionally, evaluating models across many benchmarks creates a significant computational burden. To address these issues, we propose LIME (Less Is More for MLLM Evaluation), a refined and efficient benchmark curated using a semi-automated pipeline. This pipeline filters out uninformative samples and eliminates answer leakage by focusing on tasks that require image-based understanding. Our experiments show that LIME reduces the number of samples by 76% and evaluation time by 77%, while it can more effectively distinguish different models’ abilities. Notably, we find that traditional automatic metrics like CIDEr are insufficient for evaluating MLLMs’ captioning performance, and excluding the caption task score yields a more accurate reflection of overall model performance.
