Multi-Rollout On-Policy Distillation via Peer Successes and Failures

Weichen Yu, Xiaomin Li, Yizhou Zhao +8

Large language models are often post-trained with sparse verifier rewards, which indicate whether a sampled trajectory succeeds but provide limited guidance about where reasoning s…

UniSD: Towards a Unified Self-Distillation Framework for Large Language Models

Yiqiao Jin, Yiyang Wang, Lucheng Fu +7

Self-distillation (SD) offers a promising path for adapting large language models (LLMs) without relying on stronger external teachers. However, SD in autoregressive LLMs remains c…

TorchUMM: A Unified Multimodal Model Codebase for Evaluation, Analysis, and Post-training

Yinyi Luo, Wenwen Wang, Hayes Bai +6

Recent advances in unified multimodal models (UMMs) have led to a proliferation of architectures capable of understanding, generating, and editing across visual and textual modalit…

LatentUMM: Dual Latent Alignment for Unified Multimodal Models

Yinyi Luo, Wenwen Wang, Hayes Bai +2

Unified multimodal models (UMMs) achieve strong performance in both understanding and generation by learning a shared latent space, yet they often exhibit functional inconsistency…

UniPath: Adaptive Coordination of Understanding and Generation for Unified Multimodal Reasoning

Hayes Bai, Yinyi Luo, Wenwen Wang +2

Unified multimodal models (UMMs) aim to integrate understanding and generation within a single architecture. However, it remains underexplored how to effectively coordinate these t…

Self-Corrected Image Generation with Explainable Latent Rewards

Yinyi Luo, Hrishikesh Gokhale, Marios Savvides +2

Despite significant progress in text-to-image generation, aligning outputs with complex prompts remains challenging, particularly for fine-grained semantics and spatial relations.…
