Mainstream Test-Time Adaptation (TTA) methods for adapting vision-language models, e.g., CLIP, typically rely on Shannon Entropy (SE) at test time to measure prediction uncertainty and inconsistency. However, since CLIP has a built-in bias from pretraining on highly imbalanced web-crawled data, SE i…
Document parsing, the task of extracting diverse content from PDFs while preserving their structural integrity, has been significantly advanced by Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs). These models have achieved remarkable success, largely driven by extensive post-training on massive datasets. T…
Reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a powerful post-training paradigm for large language models (LLMs), yet its effectiveness varies significantly across base models. While incorporating a pre-RL supervised fine-tuning (SFT) phase can enhance RL training, key questions remain: how long should…
This paper presents Omni-View, which extends the unified multimodal understanding and generation to 3D scenes based on multiview images, exploring the principle that ``generation facilitates understanding". Consisting of understanding model, texture module, and geometry module, Omni-View jointly mod…
This paper presents OvisOCR, a lightweight and strictly end-to-end Multimodal Language Model (MLLM) tailored for document parsing. Unlike current methods that rely on complex "Crop-OCR-Merge" cascades to handle high-resolution inputs, OvisOCR directly maps full-page visual signals to structured Mark…
Diffusion models have emerged as a dominant approach for text-to-image generation. Key components such as the human preference alignment and classifier-free guidance play a crucial role in ensuring generation quality. However, their independent application in current text-to-image models continues t…
Recently, test-time scaling of Large Language Models (LLMs) has emerged as a practical alternative to parameter and data scaling. Reasoning tasks often require large-scale, RLVR-based LLMs, while more economical LLMs can handle simpler tasks. Routing an LLM tailored to *suitability* (*i.e.*, capabil…
Video large language models (Video-LLMs) have made significant progress in understanding videos. However, processing multiple frames leads to lengthy visual token sequences, presenting challenges such as the limited context length cannot accommodate the entire video, and the inclusion of irrelevant…
We present Meissonic, which elevates non-autoregressive text-to-image Masked Image Modeling (MIM) to a level comparable with state-of-the-art diffusion models like SDXL. By incorporating a comprehensive suite of architectural innovations, advanced positional encoding strategies, and optimized sampli…
Mainstream test-time adaptation (TTA) techniques endeavor to mitigate distribution shifts via entropy minimization for multi-class classification, inherently increasing the probability of the most confident class. However, when encountering multi-label instances, the primary challenge stems from the…
Tabular reasoning requires complex, multi-step information extraction and logical inference, such as aggregation, comparison, or calculation over tabular data. While recent advances have leveraged large language models (LLMs) for reasoning over structured text tables, such high-quality textual repre…
The rapid development of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), such as GPT-4, marks a significant step toward artificial general intelligence. Existing methods typically align vision encoders with LLMs via supervised fine-tuning (SFT), but this often deteriorates their ability to handle multiple…
Self-play fine-tuning has demonstrated promising abilities in adapting large language models (LLMs) to downstream tasks with limited real-world data. The basic principle is to iteratively refine the model with real samples and synthetic ones generated from itself. However, the existing methods prima…
Recent advances in text-to-image synthesis largely benefit from sophisticated sampling strategies and classifier-free guidance (CFG) to ensure high-quality generation. However, CFG's reliance on two forward passes, especially when combined with intricate sampling algorithms, results in prohibitively…
Recently, self-play fine-tuning (SPIN) has been proposed to adapt large language models to downstream applications with scarce expert-annotated data, by iteratively generating synthetic responses from the model itself. However, SPIN is designed to optimize the current reward advantages of annotated…
Recently, text-to-image generation models have achieved remarkable advancements, particularly with diffusion models facilitating high-quality image synthesis from textual descriptions.

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are thriving through continuous fine-tuning by LLMs. Driven by the law that "scale is everything", MLLMs expand their training sets during version iterations. In this paper, we propose a large-scale training data engine built around an evaluating-exploring-ev…
Tool-augmented large language models (LLMs) leverage tools, often in the form of APIs, to improve their reasoning capabilities on complex tasks.

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs), initiated with a trained LLM, first align images with text and then fine-tune on multimodal mixed inputs. However, during the continued training, the MLLM catastrophically forgets the text-only instructions that the initial LLM masters. In this paper, we pre…
