Text-to-image (T2I) models are increasingly used for synthetic dataset generation, but generating synthetic training data to improve fine-grained classification performance remains challenging. Fine-tuning the T2I model with a few real examples can help generate more appropriate synthetic training d
Reward models (RMs) are inherently non-neutral value functions designed and trained to encode specific objectives, such as human preferences or text-image alignment. RMs have become crucial components of text-to-image (T2I) generation systems where they are used at various stages for dataset filteri
Visual instruction tuning (VIT) datasets consist of randomly sampled image-question pairs without regard to the informativeness of each pair. Recent dataset selection methods have shown that a small fraction of such datasets enriched with informative samples can lead to efficient finetuning of Multi…
Looped Language Models (LoopLMs) perform multi-step latent reasoning prior to token generation and outperform conventional LLMs on reasoning benchmarks at smaller parameter budgets. However, attempts to further improve LoopLM reasoning with reinforcement learning have failed—standard objectives such…
