Beyond Final Answers: CRYSTAL Benchmark for Transparent Multimodal Reasoning Evaluation
Wayner Barrios, SouYoung Jin
We introduce CRYSTAL (Clear Reasoning via Yielded Steps, Traceability, and Logic), a diagnostic benchmark with 6,372 instances that evaluates multimodal reasoning through verifiabl…
Native LLM and MLLM Inference at Scale on Apple Silicon
Wayner Barrios
The growing adoption of Apple Silicon for machine learning development has created demand for efficient inference solutions that leverage its unique unified memory architecture. Ho…
MoDA: Modulation Adapter for Fine-Grained Visual Grounding in Instructional MLLMs
Wayner Barrios, Andrés Villa, Juan León Alcázar +2
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable success in instruction-following tasks by integrating pretrained visual encoders with large language models (LLMs)…
Multi-layer Learnable Attention Mask for Multimodal Tasks
Wayner Barrios, SouYoung Jin
While the Self-Attention mechanism in the Transformer model has proven to be effective in many domains, we observe that it is less effective in more diverse settings (e.g. multimod…
