AISBench Benchmark Tool

AISBench Benchmark is a model evaluation tool built based on OpenCompass. It supports evaluation scenarios for both accuracy and performance testing of AI models on Ascend NPU.

Overview

• Accuracy Evaluation: Accuracy verification of service-deployed models and local models on various QA and reasoning benchmark datasets, covering text, multimodal, and other scenarios.
• Performance Evaluation: Latency and throughput evaluation of service-deployed models, extreme performance testing under stress test scenarios, steady-state performance evaluation, and real business traffic simulation.

Supported Scenarios

Supported Benchmarks

• Text: GSM8K, MMLU, Ceval, FewCLUE series, dapo_math, leval
• Multimodal: docvqa, infovqa, ocrbench_v2, omnidocbench, mmmu, mmmu_pro, mmstar, videomme, textvqa, videobench, vocalsound
• Multi-turn Dialogue: sharegpt, mtbench
• Function Call: BFCL (Berkeley Function Calling Leaderboard)

Installation

Environment Requirements

Python Version: Only Python 3.10, 3.11, or 3.12 is supported.

# Create conda environment
conda create --name ais_bench python=3.10 -y
conda activate ais_bench

Install from Source

git clone https://github.com/AISBench/benchmark.git
cd benchmark/
pip3 install -e ./ --use-pep517

Verify installation:

ais_bench -h

Optional Dependencies

# For service-deployed model evaluation (vLLM, Triton, etc.)
pip3 install -r requirements/api.txt
pip3 install -r requirements/extra.txt

# For Huggingface multimodal / vLLM offline inference
pip3 install -r requirements/hf_vl_dependency.txt

# For BFCL Function Calling evaluation

Quick Start

Basic Command Structure

ais_bench --models <model_task> --datasets <dataset_task> [--summarizer example]

• --models: Specifies the model task configuration
• --datasets: Specifies the dataset task configuration
• --summarizer: Result presentation task (default: example)

Find Configuration Files

# List all available task configurations
ais_bench --models vllm_api_general_chat --datasets demo_gsm8k_gen_4_shot_cot_chat_prompt --search

Example: Service Model Accuracy Evaluation

1. Start vLLM inference service (follow vLLM documentation)
2. Prepare dataset:

- Download GSM8K from opencompass - Extract to ais_bench/datasets/gsm8k/

1. Modify model configuration (vllm_api_general_chat.py): from ais_bench.benchmark.models import VLLMCustomAPIChat models = [dict(attr="service", type=VLLMCustomAPIChat, abbr='vllm-api-general-chat', path="", model="", stream=False, request_rate=0, retry=2, api_key="", host_ip="localhost", host_port=8080, url="", max_out_len=512, batch_size=1, trust_remote_code=False, generation_kwargs=dict(temperature=0.01, ignore_eos=False,))]
2. Run evaluation: ais_bench --models vllm_api_general_chat --datasets demo_gsm8k_gen_4_shot_cot_chat_prompt

Task Management Interface

During execution, a real-time task management interface displays:

• Task name and progress
• Time cost and status
• Log path
• Extended parameters

Controls:

• P key: Pause/Resume screen refresh
• Ctrl+C: Exit

Common CLI Options

Advanced Features

Breakpoint Resume

ais_bench --models model1 --datasets dataset1 --resume outputs/default/20250628_151326

Troubleshooting

Installation Issues

1. Python version mismatch: Use Python 3.10/3.11/3.12
2. Dependency conflicts: Use conda environment
3. bfcl_eval pathlib issue: Use --no-deps flag

Runtime Issues

1. Model connection failed: Check host_ip, host_port, and service status
2. Dataset not found: Download dataset to ais_bench/datasets/
3. Memory issues: Reduce batch_size or use smaller dataset
