Image generation models have rapidly advanced, with many models now supporting generation conditioned on multiple reference images and textual instructions. Such models enable a wide range of applications, including entity fusion and attribute transfer across images. However, existing benchmarks for multi-reference image generation rely on limited evaluation dimensions and fail to capture the diverse challenges of the task. To address this limitation, we propose MDMR-Bench, a Multi-Dimensional benchmark for Multi-Reference image generation. MDMR-Bench is organized around representative capability settings and consists of multiple evaluation subsets spanning diverse dimensions of multi-reference image generation, including (1) common entity fusion and attribute transfer, (2) multi-element extraction from a single image, (3) infographic manipulation, and (4) visual reasoning-intensive generation. This design enables systematic analysis of model capabilities and failure modes across different challenge dimensions. Furthermore, to achieve more reliable and interpretable evaluation, we introduce a checklist-based evaluation protocol that decomposes generation quality into fine-grained evaluation aspects. Instead of relying solely on holistic scoring, our framework uses structured checklists composed of both global-level and atomic-level queries, enabling more diagnostic assessment of model performance. By benchmarking both open-source and proprietary models, we demonstrate that MDMR-Bench provides fine-grained insights into model performance across different dimensions. The dataset and code are publicly available.
