Don't Show Pixels, Show Cues: Unlocking Visual Tool Reasoning in Language Models via Perception Programs

CVPR 2026

Multimodal language models (MLLMs) are increasingly paired with vision tools (e.g., depth, flow, correspondence) to enhance visual reasoning. However, despite access to these tool-generated visual cues, MLLMs often fail to benefit fully from them. Existing approaches typically feed raw tool outputs

ReaGEN: Adaptive Generation of Structured Chains-of-Thought for Efficient Multimodal Reasoning

CVPR 2026

Large Vision Language Models (LVLMs) exhibit strong perceptual and linguistic capabilities yet struggle with complex visual reasoning tasks that require structured, compositional, and adaptive inference. Existing approaches either rely on costly inference-time exploration--such as multi-path or tree

A Multiscale Objective Function for Camera Color Correction

ICASSP 2024accepted

Color correction (CC) plays a pivotal role in camera imaging. Existing approaches usually conduct CC tuning by minimizing ∆E (e.g. ∆E2000), a standard metric proposed by CIE for representing color differences in LAB space. However, we observe that not all the colors with identical ∆E error to the ta…

Cylindrical Thompson Sampling for High-Dimensional Bayesian Optimization

AISTATS 2024poster

Many industrial and scientific applications require optimization of one or more objectives by tuning dozens or hundreds of input parameters. While Bayesian optimization has been a popular approach for the efficient optimization of blackbox functions, its performance decreases drastically as the dime…
