Meta CLIP 2: A Worldwide Scaling Recipe

Yung-Sung Chuang, Yang Li, Dong Wang +13

Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) is a popular foundation model, supporting from zero-shot classification, retrieval to encoders for multimodal large language models (M…

Scaling Language-Free Visual Representation Learning

David Fan, Shengbang Tong, Jiachen Zhu +8

Visual Self-Supervised Learning (SSL) currently underperforms Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) in multimodal settings such as Visual Question Answering (VQA). This mul…

Learning Real-World Action-Video Dynamics with Heterogeneous Masked Autoregression

Lirui Wang, Kevin Zhao, Chaoqi Liu +1

We propose Heterogeneous Masked Autoregression (HMA) for modeling action-video dynamics to generate high-quality data and evaluation in scaling robot learning. Building interactive…

MetaMorph: Multimodal Understanding and Generation via Instruction Tuning

Shengbang Tong, David Fan, Jiachen Zhu +7

In this work, we propose Visual-Predictive Instruction Tuning (VPiT) - a simple and effective extension to visual instruction tuning that enables a pretrained LLM to quickly morph…

Scaling Proprioceptive-Visual Learning with Heterogeneous Pre-trained Transformers

Lirui Wang, Xinlei Chen, Jialiang Zhao +1

One of the roadblocks for training generalist robotic models today is heterogeneity. Previous robot learning methods often collect data to train with one specific embodiment for on…

Massive Activations in Large Language Models

Mingjie Sun, Xinlei Chen, J. Zico Kolter +1

We observe an empirical phenomenon in Large Language Models (LLMs) -- very few activations exhibit significantly larger values than others (e.g., 100,000 times larger). We call the…

Deconstructing Denoising Diffusion Models for Self-Supervised Learning

Xinlei Chen, Zhuang Liu, Saining Xie +1

In this study, we examine the representation learning abilities of Denoising Diffusion Models (DDM) that were originally purposed for image generation. Our philosophy is to deconst…
