Unified Text-Image Generation with Weakness-Targeted Post-Training

Jiahui Chen, Philippe Hansen-Estruch, Xiaochuang Han +7

Unified multimodal generation architectures that jointly produce text and images have recently emerged as a promising direction for text-to-image (T2I) synthesis. However, many exi…

Multimodal RewardBench 2: Evaluating Omni Reward Models for Interleaved Text and Image

Yushi Hu, Reyhane Askari-Hemmat, Melissa Hall +3

Reward models (RMs) are essential for training large language models (LLMs), but remain underexplored for omni models that handle interleaved image and text sequences. We introduce…

QReg: On Regularization Effects of Quantization

MohammadHossein AskariHemmat, Reyhane Askari Hemmat, Alex Hoffman +6

In this paper we study the effects of quantization in DNN training. We hypothesize that weight quantization is a form of regularization and the amount of regularization is correlat…
