构建多语言视觉融合的STEM问题评测集，揭示大模型跨语言鲁棒性差异。

Symbolic benchmarks have emerged as a key approach to assess model robustness under minor modifications to STEM-related questions. However, existing symbolic benchmarks mostly remain limited to mathematical reasoning, lack visual grounding, and are predominantly in English. In this work, we introduce Sci-Rho (Science Rhobustness), a dynamic benchmark for visually-grounded STEM problems spanning five subjects and seven languages, comprising 4,242 problem templates (606 per language) crafted by domain experts, including Olympiad medalists. Each template is implemented as executable Python code that generates diverse but equivalent problem instances by varying numerical values, visual patterns, geometric shapes, color schemes, and function types, resulting in 42,420 instances in total, each paired with reasoning steps and ground-truth solutions. We evaluated 17 state-of-the-art VLMs and discovered a noticeable gap between worst-case accuracy (defined as the proportion of problem templates that a model answers correctly across every generated variation) and average accuracy. We also discovered that smaller models show noticeable performance degradation across languages, whereas proprietary and larger models remain robust. Step-level evaluation reflects this same trend, revealing a significant gap between average F1 and worst-case F1 scores. Finally, our inspection of attention heads of a VLM reveals substantial cross-lingual variation in the relative attention allocated to image tokens compared to text tokens. Our work highlights the importance of evaluation beyond static benchmarks as a metric to measure the quality of VLMs.
