DualToken: Towards Unifying Visual Understanding and Generation with Dual Visual Vocabularies

ICLR 2026poster

The differing representation spaces required for visual understanding and generation pose a challenge in unifying them within the autoregressive paradigm of large language models. A vision tokenizer trained for reconstruction excels at capturing low-level visual appearance, making it well-suited for…

Beyond Sight: Towards Cognitive Alignment in LVLM via Enriched Visual Knowledge

CVPR 2025poster

Does seeing always mean knowing? Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) integrate separately pre-trained vision and language components, often using CLIP-ViT as vision backbone. However, these models frequently encounter a core issue of "cognitive misalignment" between the vision encoder (VE) and the…

CFBench: A Comprehensive Constraints-Following Benchmark for LLMs

ACL 2025long

The adeptness of Large Language Models (LLMs) in comprehending and following natural language instructions is critical for their deployment in sophisticated real-world applications. Existing evaluations mainly focus on fragmented constraints or narrow scenarios, but they overlook the comprehensivene…

FB-Bench: A Fine-Grained Multi-Task Benchmark for Evaluating LLMs’ Responsiveness to Human Feedback

EMNLP 2025

Human feedback is crucial in the interactions between humans and Large Language Models (LLMs). However, existing research primarily focuses on benchmarking LLMs in single-turn dialogues. Even in benchmarks designed for multi-turn dialogues, the user utterances are often independent, neglecting the n

Facilitating Multi-turn Function Calling for LLMs via Compositional Instruction Tuning

ICLR 2025poster

Large Language Models (LLMs) have exhibited significant potential in performing diverse tasks, including the ability to call functions or use external tools to enhance their performance. While current research on function calling by LLMs primarily focuses on single-turn interactions, this paper addr…

MM-Verify: Enhancing Multimodal Reasoning with Chain-of-Thought Verification

ACL 2025long

According to the Test-Time Scaling, the integration of External Slow-Thinking with the Verify mechanism has been demonstrated to enhance multi-round reasoning in large language models (LLMs). However, in the multimodal (MM) domain, there is still a lack of a strong MM-Verifier. In this paper, we int…

ReSearch: Learning to Reason with Search for LLMs via Reinforcement Learning

NeurIPS 2025poster

Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown remarkable capabilities in reasoning, exemplified by the success of OpenAI-o1 and DeepSeek-R1. However, integrating reasoning with external search processes remains challenging, especially for complex multi-hop questions requiring multiple retrieval steps. We…

SysBench: Can LLMs Follow System Message?

ICLR 2025poster

Large Language Models (LLMs) have become instrumental across various applications, with the customization of these models to specific scenarios becoming increasingly critical. System message, a fundamental component of LLMs, is consist of carefully crafted instructions that guide the behavior of mod…
