Cross-modal representation learning is fundamental for extracting structured information from multimodal data to enable semantic understanding and reasoning. However, current methods optimize statistical objectives without explicit causal constraints, where nonlinear mappings can introduce spurious…
Knowledge Distillation (KD) serves as an effective approach to addressing heterogeneity issues in Federated Learning (FL), leveraging additional datasets to align local and global models better. There are two primary distillation paradigms: feature-based distillation, which utilizes intermediate-lay
Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) of the language backbone plays a pivotal role in adapting Vision-Language Models (VLMs) to specialized domains such as medical reasoning. However, existing SFT practices often rely on unfiltered textual datasets that contain redundant and low-quality samples, leading to
This study intends to systematically disentangle pure logic reasoning and text understanding by investigating the contrast across abstract and contextualized logical problems from a comprehensive set of domains. We explore whether LLMs demonstrate genuine reasoning capabilities across various domain…
Recent multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have demonstrated significant potential in open-ended conversation, generating more accurate and personalized responses. However, their abilities to memorize, recall, and reason in sustained interactions within real-world scenarios remain underexplored…
Recent advancements in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have significantly improved performance in visual question answering. However, they often suffer from hallucinations. In this work, hallucinations are categorized into two main types: initial hallucinations and snowball hallucinations.…
