FastJEV: Understanding Redundancy for Compact JEV Inference
Jie Ma, Jie Gao, Yihang Liu +5
JEV models make multimodal decisions by directly scoring candidates. Although the common context is encoded once, candidate evaluation can still repeat matching token histories, du…
Capturing Token Tendencies for Training-Free Token Pruning in Multimodal Large Language Models
Jie Ma, Zhike Qiu, Jie Gao +4
While visual token pruning is essential for efficient Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), existing training-free methods suffer from a critical limitation: they rely on stati…
One Reflection Is Not Enough: Self-Correcting Autonomous Research via Multi-Hypothesis Failure Attribution
Jie Ma, Binfei Chu, Jie Gao +6
Autonomous research agents can now draft hypotheses, write code, run experiments, and produce papers, but they remain brittle when experiments fail. Under the prevailing paradigm,…
An Extensive Benchmark for Single-round and Multi-round Instruction-based Image Editing
Yiwei Ma, Ke Ye, Weihuang Lin +4
In recent years, there have been notable advancements in the area of instruction-based image editing (IIE), which focuses on the automatic alteration of input images using a model.…
Look Less, Reason More: Block-wise Attention Skipping for Efficient Multimodal LLMs
Jie Ma, Zhike Qiu, Jiayi Ji +2
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) face a significant inference bottleneck due to the quadratic computational cost of self-attention over long visual token sequences. However…
ForensicConcept: Transferable Forensic Concepts for AIGI Detection
Menyanshu Zhou, Ziyin Zhou, Ke Sun +4
AI-generated image detectors achieve high accuracy on in-distribution data but often fail on unseen generators. A key obstacle to understanding this failure is the black-box nature…
Plan Before Search: Search Agents Need Plan
Zhipeng Qian, Zihan Liang, Yufei Ma +7
Training large language models as retrieval-augmented reasoning agents typically combines reinforcement learning with an SFT cold start distilled from a stronger model. However, th…
Look on Demand: A Cognitive Scheduling Framework for Visual Evidence Acquisition in Multimodal Reasoning
Yang Zhang, Xiaoshuai Sun, Rui Zhao +5
Existing multimodal reasoning approaches predominantly follow two paradigms: converting visual inputs into text prior to reasoning, or performing end-to-end reasoning within a unif…
Evading Visual Aphasia: Contrastive Adaptive Semantic Token Pruning for Vision-Language Models
Jie Ma, Yihang Liu, Zhike Qiu +2
Are low-attention visual tokens truly redundant in vision-language reasoning? Existing pruning methods often assume so, ranking visual tokens by shallow text-to-image attention and…
EvoTale: Continual Character Customization for Expanding Story Worlds
Jinlu Zhang, Qiyun Wang, Baoxiang Du +6
Character-centric story visualization aims to synthesize coherent image sequences that depict narrative events and interactions while preserving recurring character identities. In…
CSMCIR: CoT-Enhanced Symmetric Alignment with Memory Bank for Composed Image Retrieval
Zhipeng Qian, Zihan Liang, Yufei Ma +7
Composed Image Retrieval (CIR) enables users to search for target images using both a reference image and manipulation text, offering substantial advantages over single-modality re…
