Recent advances in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have led to promising progress in web agents. However, existing web agents often rely on handcrafted execution pipelines or expensive expert trajectories, limiting their adaptability to complex, dynamic environments. To address these challe
Progressive Learning (PL) reduces pre-training computational overhead by gradually increasing model scale. While prior work has extensively explored depth expansion, width expansion remains significantly understudied, with the few existing methods limited to the early stages of training. However, ex…
Recent image editing models boast next-level intelligent capabilities, facilitating cognition- and creativity-informed image editing. Yet, existing benchmarks provide too narrow a scope for evaluation, failing to holistically assess these advanced abilities. To address this, we introduce WiseEdit, a
Instruction-based image editing aims to modify specific image elements with natural language instructions. However, current models in this domain often struggle to execute complex user instructions accurately, as they are trained on low-quality data with limited editing types. We present AnyEdit, a…
The development of Generalist Virtual Agents (GVAs) has shown significant promise in autonomous task execution. However, current training paradigms face critical limitations, including reliance on outcome supervision and labor-intensive human annotations. To address these challenges, we propose **Si…
Recent advances in reinforcement learning (RL) methods such as Grouped Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) have strengthened the reasoning capabilities of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs). However, due to the inherent entanglement between visual and textual modalities, applying GRPO to LVLMs oft…
Instruction tuning fine-tunes pre-trained Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to handle real-world tasks. However, the rapid expansion of visual instruction datasets introduces data redundancy, leading to excessive computational costs. We propose a collaborative framework, DataTailor, which le…
Video Large Language Models (Video-LLMs) have recently shown strong performance in basic video understanding tasks, such as captioning and coarse-grained question answering, but struggle with compositional reasoning that requires multi-step spatio-temporal inference across object relations, interact…
As multimodal large language models (MLLMs) advance, MLLM-based virtual agents have demonstrated remarkable performance. However, existing benchmarks face significant limitations, including uncontrollable task complexity, extensive manual annotation, and a lack of multidimensional evaluation. In res…
Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) tuned on machine-generated instruction-following data have demonstrated remarkable performance in various multimodal understanding and generation tasks. However the hallucinations inherent in machine-generated data which could lead to hallucinatory outputs i…
The swift advancement in Multimodal LLMs (MLLMs) also presents significant challenges for effective knowledge editing. Current methods, including intrinsic knowledge editing and external knowledge resorting, each possess strengths and weaknesses, struggling to balance the desired properties of relia…
In recent times, Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have been trained under two predominant paradigms. Generative training has enabled Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to tackle various complex tasks, yet issues such as hallucinations and weak object discrimination persist. Discriminative trainin…
Scene Graph Generation (SGG) aims to extract <subject, predicate, object> relationships in images for vision understanding. Although recent works have made steady progress on SGG, they still suffer long-tail distribution that tail-predicates are more costly to train and hard to distinguish due to a…
In this letter, we present a design and fabrication framework for soft, underactuated grippers that utilize reconfigurable laminate layers for finger stiffness modulation. The grippers consist of internal flexoskeleton layers, which are hybrid soft-rigid structures composed of a flexible thermoplast
