NVILA: Efficient Frontier Visual Language Models
Zhijian Liu, Ligeng Zhu, Baifeng Shi +24
Visual language models (VLMs) have made significant advances in accuracy in recent years. However, their efficiency has received much less attention. This paper introduces NVILA, a…
EGM: Efficient Visual Grounding Language Models
Guanqi Zhan, Changye Li, Zhijian Liu +4
Visual grounding is an essential capability of Visual Language Models (VLMs) to understand the real physical world. Previous state-of-the-art grounding visual language models usual…
Alpamayo-R1: Bridging Reasoning and Action Prediction for Generalizable Autonomous Driving in the Long Tail
NVIDIA, :, Yan Wang +41
End-to-end architectures trained via imitation learning have advanced autonomous driving by scaling model size and data, yet performance remains brittle in safety-critical long-tai…
LidarDM: Generative LiDAR Simulation in a Generated World
Vlas Zyrianov, Henry Che, Zhijian Liu +1
We present LidarDM, a novel LiDAR generative model capable of producing realistic, layout-aware, physically plausible, and temporally coherent LiDAR videos. LidarDM stands out with…
VLASH: Real-Time VLAs via Future-State-Aware Asynchronous Inference
Jiaming Tang, Yufei Sun, Yilong Zhao +7
Vision-Language-Action models (VLAs) are becoming increasingly capable across diverse robotic tasks. However, these models are typically deployed under synchronous inference, where…
OmniVinci: Enhancing Architecture and Data for Omni-Modal Understanding LLM
Hanrong Ye, Chao-Han Huck Yang, Arushi Goel +29
Advancing machine intelligence requires developing the ability to perceive across multiple modalities, much as humans sense the world. We introduce OmniVinci, an initiative to buil…
