What Does Privileged Information Add to On-Policy Self-Distillation?
XiuYu Zhang, Wei Chow, Junfeng Fang +3
On-policy self-distillation (OPSD) lets a language model learn from a frozen copy of itself that sees an answer or a worked solution. Giving the teacher this extra information seem…
Calibration is the Bottleneck: An Action-Class Diagnostic of Multi-Turn Tool-Calling
Kangjia Zhao, Jiajun Li, Haozhan Shen +8
Multi-turn tool calling is a core evaluation scenario for large language model (LLM) agents. On public tool-calling benchmarks, open-weight models now approach or even surpass clos…
Data Pyramid for Embodied Manipulation: A Survey
Yifan Ye, Yankai Fu, Yaoxu Lv +26
Multimodal foundation models learned to see and to speak by consuming the whole internet. Embodied agents admit no such shortcut, since they require data that couple observations w…
Learning When to Trust via Selective Context Preference Optimization
Xian Sun, Wei Chow, Yingshuo Wang +4
Language models increasingly condition their answers on external signals, and a single misleading one can turn a correct answer wrong. The obvious remedy, training models to resist…
Masked Generative Transformer Is What You Need for Image Editing
Wei Chow, Linfeng Li, Xian Sun +14
Diffusion models dominate image editing, yet their global denoising mechanism entangles edited regions with surrounding context, causing modifications to propagate into areas that…
AI for Auto-Research: Roadmap & User Guide
Lingdong Kong, Xian Sun, Wei Chow +17
AI-assisted research is crossing a threshold: fully automated systems can now generate research papers for as little as $15, while long-horizon agents can execute experiments, draf…
EditMGT: Unleashing Potentials of Masked Generative Transformers in Image Editing
Wei Chow, Linfeng Li, Lingdong Kong +13
Recent advances in diffusion models (DMs) have achieved exceptional visual quality in image editing tasks. However, the global denoising dynamics of DMs inherently conflate local e…
WEAVE: Unleashing and Benchmarking the In-context Interleaved Comprehension and Generation
Wei Chow, Jiachun Pan, Yongyuan Liang +10
Recent advances in unified multimodal models (UMMs) have enabled impressive progress in visual comprehension and generation. However, existing datasets and benchmarks focus primari…
MERIT: Multilingual Semantic Retrieval with Interleaved Multi-Condition Query
Wei Chow, Yuan Gao, Linfeng Li +15
Semantic retrieval is crucial for modern applications yet remains underexplored in current research. Existing datasets are limited to single languages, single images, or singular r…
Mixed-R1: Unified Reward Perspective For Reasoning Capability in Multimodal Large Language Models
Shilin Xu, Yanwei Li, Rui Yang +9
Recent works on large language models (LLMs) have successfully demonstrated the emergence of reasoning capabilities via reinforcement learning (RL). Although recent efforts leverag…
An Empirical Study of GPT-4o Image Generation Capabilities
Sixiang Chen, Jinbin Bai, Zhuoran Zhao +16
The landscape of image generation has rapidly evolved, from early GAN-based approaches to diffusion models and, most recently, to unified generative architectures that seek to brid…
HumanEdit: A High-Quality Human-Rewarded Dataset for Instruction-based Image Editing
Jinbin Bai, Wei Chow, Ling Yang +4
We present HumanEdit, a high-quality, human-rewarded dataset specifically designed for instruction-guided image editing, enabling precise and diverse image manipulations through op…
AnyEdit: Mastering Unified High-Quality Image Editing for Any Idea
Qifan Yu, Wei Chow, Zhongqi Yue +7
Instruction-based image editing aims to modify specific image elements with natural language instructions. However, current models in this domain often struggle to accurately execu…
Unified Generative and Discriminative Training for Multi-modal Large Language Models
Wei Chow, Juncheng Li, Qifan Yu +7
In recent times, Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have been trained under two predominant paradigms. Generative training has enabled Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to tackle…
Meissonic: Revitalizing Masked Generative Transformers for Efficient High-Resolution Text-to-Image Synthesis
Jinbin Bai, Tian Ye, Wei Chow +5
We present Meissonic, which elevates non-autoregressive masked image modeling (MIM) text-to-image to a level comparable with state-of-the-art diffusion models like SDXL. By incorpo…
Auto-Encoding Morph-Tokens for Multimodal LLM
Kaihang Pan, Siliang Tang, Juncheng Li +6
For multimodal LLMs, the synergy of visual comprehension (textual output) and generation (visual output) presents an ongoing challenge. This is due to a conflicting objective: for…
