UME-R1: Exploring Reasoning-Driven Generative Multimodal Embeddings
Zhibin Lan, Liqiang Niu, Fandong Meng +2
The remarkable success of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) has driven advances in multimodal embeddings, yet existing models remain inherently discriminative, limiting thei…
LLaVE: Large Language and Vision Embedding Models with Hardness-Weighted Contrastive Learning
Zhibin Lan, Liqiang Niu, Fandong Meng +2
Universal multimodal embedding models play a critical role in tasks such as interleaved image-text retrieval, multimodal RAG, and multimodal clustering. However, our empirical resu…
PATIMT-Bench: A Multi-Scenario Benchmark for Position-Aware Text Image Machine Translation in Large Vision-Language Models
Wanru Zhuang, Wenbo Li, Zhibin Lan +3
Text Image Machine Translation (TIMT) aims to translate texts embedded within an image into another language. Current TIMT studies primarily focus on providing translations for all…
AVG-LLaVA: An Efficient Large Multimodal Model with Adaptive Visual Granularity
Zhibin Lan, Liqiang Niu, Fandong Meng +3
Recently, large multimodal models (LMMs) have achieved significant advancements. When dealing with high-resolution images, dominant LMMs typically divide them into multiple local i…
