Knowledge-Based Visual Question Answering (KB-VQA) requires models to answer questions about an image by integrating external knowledge, posing significant challenges due to noisy retrieval and the structured, encyclopedic nature of the knowledge base. These characteristics create a distributional g…
Open-domain visual entity recognition (VER) seeks to associate images with entities in encyclopedic knowledge bases such as Wikipedia. Recent generative methods tailored for VER demonstrate strong performance but incur high computational costs, limiting their scalability and practical deployment. In
Sora unveils the potential of scaling Diffusion Transformer (DiT) for generating photorealistic images and videos at arbitrary resolutions, aspect ratios, and durations, yet it still lacks sufficient implementation details. In this paper, we introduce the Lumina-T2X family -- a series of Flow-based…
Reinforcement learning (RL) has shown promise in enhancing the general Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning capabilities of multimodal large language models (MLLMs). However, when applied to improve general CoT reasoning, existing RL frameworks often struggle to generalize beyond the training distributi…
"We present , a versatile multi-modal large language model (MLLM) with a joint mixing of model weights, visual embeddings and image scales. First, for stronger vision-language alignment, we unfreeze the large language model (LLM) during pre-training, and introduce a weight mix strategy between LLMs…
Image captioning aims at generating descriptive and meaningful textual descriptions of images, enabling a broad range of vision-language applications. Prior works have demonstrated that harnessing the power of Contrastive Image Language Pre-training (CLIP) offers a promising approach to achieving ze…
We propose SPHINX-X, an extensive Multi-modality Large Language Model (MLLM) series developed upon SPHINX. To improve the architecture and training efficiency, we modify the SPHINX framework by removing redundant visual encoders, bypassing fully-padded sub-images with skip tokens, and simplifying mu…
Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) has been shown to learn visual representations with promising zero-shot performance. To further improve its downstream accuracy, existing works propose additional learnable modules upon CLIP and fine-tune them by few-shot training sets. However, the res…
Human-Object Interaction (HOI) detection aims to localize human-object pairs and recognize their interactions. Recently, Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) has shown great potential in providing interaction prior for HOI detectors via knowledge distillation. However, such approaches ofte…
Masked Autoencoders (MAE) have shown promising performance in self-supervised learning for both 2D and 3D computer vision. However, existing MAE-style methods can only learn from the data of a single modality, i.e., either images or point clouds, which neglect the implicit semantic and geometric cor…
