Enjoy Your Talk: A Human-Centered Benchmark for Multi-Turn Dialogue with Decoupled User Simulation, Target Modeling, and Judging

Jinglan Gong, Jiefan Lu, Hewei Guo +5

Evaluating large language models (LLMs) as multi-turn conversational partners requires probing capabilities that single-turn benchmarks miss: persona consistency, evolving intent t…

MER-R1: Multimodal Emotion Reasoning via Slow-Fast Thinking Synergy

Zhiyuan Han, Beier Zhu, Wenwen Tong +8

We find that explicit reasoning does not necessarily translate into better multimodal emotion recognition (MER) accuracy, even though it makes predictions more interpretable. Speci…

Omni-Perception Policy Optimization for Multimodal Emotion Reasoning

Zhiyuan Han, Beier Zhu, Wenwen Tong +6

We find that current emotion-oriented Omni-MLLMs still lack reliable omni-modal perception: they (i) underutilize multimodal cues in their reasoning trajectories and (ii) exhibit u…

InterSketch: An Interleaved Reasoning Model with Self-correcting Visual Sketch and Stepwise Reward

Zhiwei Ning, Wenwen Tong, Xiangli Kong +12

While vision-language models (VLMs) have exhibited multi-turn visual reasoning capabilities, their reasoning trajectories remain relatively shallow and are dominated by a text-cent…

SenseNova-U1: Unifying Multimodal Understanding and Generation with NEO-unify Architecture

Haiwen Diao, Penghao Wu, Hanming Deng +55

Recent large vision-language models (VLMs) remain fundamentally constrained by a persistent dichotomy: understanding and generation are treated as distinct problems, leading to fra…

V-ABS: Action-Observer Driven Beam Search for Dynamic Visual Reasoning

Zhiwei Ning, Xuanang Gao, Jiaxi Cao +6

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable success in general perception, yet complex multi-step visual reasoning remains a persistent challenge. Although re…
