Token-level Response-visual Attention Guidance for Multimodal LLMs Knowledge Distillation
Jaehyun Jang, Eunseop Yoon, Hee Suk Yoon +3
While knowledge distillation (KD) is widely adopted for training lightweight models by leveraging supervision from larger teacher models, relying solely on output token distributio…
SiamCTC: Learning Speech Representations through Monotonic Temporal Alignment
SooHwan Eom, Mark Hasegawa-Johnson, Chang D. Yoo
Self-supervised speech representation learning has made significant progress through Siamese networks, which leverage different views of the same input. However, existing methods o…
Query-based Cross-Modal Projector Bolstering Mamba Multimodal LLM
SooHwan Eom, Jay Shim, Gwanhyeong Koo +4
The Transformer's quadratic complexity with input length imposes an unsustainable computational load on large language models (LLMs). In contrast, the Selective Scan Structured Sta…
Decomposed On-Policy Distillation for Vision-Language Reasoning: Steering Gradients for Visual Grounding
Hee Suk Yoon, Eunseop Yoon, Jaehyun Jang +6
While on-policy distillation offers dense supervision for training small reasoning models, its optimization dynamics in the multimodal domain remain under-explored. In this work, w…
High-Fidelity Text-to-Image Generation from Pre-Trained Vision-Language Models via Distribution-Conditioned Diffusion Decoding
Ji Woo Hong, Hee Suk Yoon, Gwanhyeong Koo +5
Recent large-scale vision-language models (VLMs) have shown remarkable text-to-image generation capabilities, yet their visual fidelity remains constrained by the discrete image to…
PACR: Progressively Ascending Confidence Reward for LLM Reasoning
Eunseop Yoon, Hee Suk Yoon, Jaehyun Jang +5
Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) has significantly improved LLM reasoning, but its sparse, outcome-based reward provides no guidance for intermediate steps, sl…
