arXiv:2604. 13731v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multi-page Document Visual Question Answering requires reasoning over semantics, layouts, and visual elements in long, visually dense documents.
Document Visual Question Answering (DocVQA) presents a complex multimodal challenge, requiring models to exploit visual, textual, and layout information from documents. Although Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have shown remarkable performance in text-vision tasks, their robustness and transferability to different document domains remains underexplored.
arXiv:2606. 27974v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering (KB-VQA) requires models to combine image understanding with external knowledge.

arXiv:2607. 09068v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advancements in LVLMs necessitate robust benchmarks for complex, visually grounded reasoning.
arXiv:2608. 10628v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-document understanding often requires reasoning over many visually rich pages, making inference costly and prone to context rot.
arXiv:2604. 01280v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering (KB-VQA) requires Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to identify and combine fine-grained visual cues with retrieved textual evidence.
Visual document retrieval has recently become increasingly important in applications such as enterprise search, scientific literature discovery, and retrieval-augmented generation. These applications depend on efficiently identifying query-relevant pages across large collections of visually rich documents.
arXiv:2608. 02907v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal retrievers are essential for knowledge-based visual question answering, where they retrieve external evidence for image-question pairs.
arXiv:2607. 24748v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Visually-rich documents such as reports, slides, and manuals often distribute the evidence needed to answer a question across multiple pages, mixing text with layout cues, tables, charts, and figures.
arXiv:2607. 10400v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision language models (VLMs) have achieved strong performance on visual document understanding benchmarks such as DocVQA, ChartQA, and MMLongBench-Doc.
arXiv:2510. 04514v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent multimodal LLMs have shown promise in chart-based visual question answering, but their performance declines sharply on unannotated charts-those requiring precise visual interpretation rather than relying on textual shortcuts.
