Audiovisual video captioning aims to generate semantically rich descriptions with temporal alignment between visual and auditory events, thereby benefiting both video understanding and generation. In this paper, we present **AVoCaDO**, a powerful audiovisual video captioner driven by the temporal or…
ANN-to-SNN conversion offers energy-efficient inference but faces a fidelity-latency trade-off due to open-loop error accumulation. While conversion-aware training mitigates this, it sacrifices the generality of using off-the-shelf ANNs. We propose a closed-loop fine-tuning framework that calibrates…
Omni-modal Large Language Models (Omni-LLMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in audio-video understanding tasks. However, their reliance on long multimodal token sequences leads to substantial computational overhead. Despite this challenge, token compression methods designed for Omni-LLMs rema…
The integration of visual understanding and generation into unified multimodal models represents a significant stride toward general-purpose AI. However, a fundamental question remains unanswered by existing benchmarks: does this architectural unification actually enable synergetic interaction betwe
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), which couple pre-trained vision encoders and language models, have shown remarkable capabilities. However, their reliance on the ubiquitous Pre-Norm architecture introduces a subtle yet critical flaw: a severe norm disparity between the high-norm visual toke…
