The paper introduces SOLAR, a multimodal generative model that jointly interprets visual and textual data to understand tomato leaf diseases across six question‑answering tasks. SOLAR aligns visual features with task‑aware language representations using a Fusion Expert module based on a mixture‑of‑experts, enabling it to generate contextually relevant answers for diverse diagnostic tasks. Evaluated on 41,677 images and 216,209 QA pairs, SOLAR outperforms state‑of‑the‑art vision‑only, vision‑language, and task‑specific models in both closed and open‑ended settings, demonstrating superior accuracy, robustness, and multimodal reasoning.
arXiv:2608.21853v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are increasingly moving beyond text processing, adding support for other modalities such as images and audio. While text understa...
arXiv:2608. 11907v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As Large Vision-Language Models increasingly aim to integrate visual generation and understanding within a single parameter space, evaluating such structural unification in a cohesive manner remains a critical challenge.
Artificial intelligence for plant disease analysis has advanced from task-specific classifiers to multi-modal models capable of jointly interpreting visual and textual information. However, practical...
