CoT-VLA: Visual Chain-of-Thought Reasoning for Vision-Language-Action Models

CVPR 2025poster

Vision-language-action models (VLAs) have shown potential in leveraging pretrained vision-language models and diverse robot demonstrations for learning generalizable sensorimotor control. While this paradigm effectively utilizes large-scale data from both robotic and non-robotic sources, current VLA…

DC-AR: Efficient Masked Autoregressive Image Generation with Deep Compression Hybrid Tokenizer

ICCV 2025poster

We introduce DC-AR, a novel masked autoregressive (AR) text-to-image generation framework that delivers superior image generation quality with exceptional computational efficiency. Due to the tokenizers' limitations, prior masked AR models have lagged behind diffusion models in terms of quality or e…

HART: Efficient Visual Generation with Hybrid Autoregressive Transformer

ICLR 2025poster

We introduce Hybrid Autoregressive Transformer (HART), the first autoregressive (AR) visual generation model capable of directly generating 1024x1024 images, rivaling diffusion models in image generation quality. Existing AR models face limitations due to the poor image reconstruction quality of the…

VILA-U: a Unified Foundation Model Integrating Visual Understanding and Generation

ICLR 2025poster

VILA-U is a Unified foundation model that integrates Video, Image, Language understanding and generation. Traditional visual language models (VLMs) use separate modules for understanding and generating visual content, which can lead to misalignment and increased complexity. In contrast, VILA-U emplo…
