arXiv:2604. 28123v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The standard post-training recipe for large multimodal models (LMMs) applies supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on curated demonstrations followed by reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR).
VISA (Visual Instruction Synthesis Agent) is an agentic framework that transforms multimodal instruction synthesis into a self‑evolving loop. Each cycle analyzes images to filter constraints, samples new constraint sets, generates candidate instructions, and verifies them using executable tools and large language model judges. Failed samples trigger diagnostic recovery, while accepted samples are evaluated against the target model to estimate difficulty, with all feedback written back to memory to adapt future rounds and provide reward signals for reinforcement learning.
arXiv:2606. 07000v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent post-training methods, particularly Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR), have significantly enhanced the reasoning ability of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs).
arXiv:2608. 08326v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has emerged as an effective approach for improving multimodal reasoning.
VinciCoder is a unified framework for multimodal code generation that addresses the limitations of single-task models by training on a large-scale curated corpus of 1.3 M direct generation pairs and 300 k visual‑refinement tasks. It introduces a coarse‑to‑fine Visual Reinforcement Learning (ViRL) approach that uses visual similarity across multi‑scale patches to provide an implementation‑agnostic reward, improving alignment between rendered outputs and input visuals. Experiments on diverse benchmarks show VinciCoder outperforms existing methods, and ablation studies confirm the effectiveness of ViRL.
arXiv:2512. 03438v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Agentic reasoning models trained with multimodal reinforcement learning (MMRL) have become increasingly capable, yet they are almost universally optimized using sparse, outcome-based rewards computed based on the final answers.
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has emerged as an effective approach for improving multimodal reasoning. However, most existing methods evaluate an entire response using a binary reward based only on final-answer correctness, thereby discarding the supervision available in intermediate reasoning steps.
arXiv:2601. 10922v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study data curation for multimodal reasoning in a fixed-protocol fine-tuning regime, where the base model, optimizer, training schedule, and evaluation pipeline are held constant and the main degree of freedom is the training data.
arXiv:2607. 13854v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multimodal agents that think with images iteratively manipulate visual evidence and invoke tools across many steps.
arXiv:2607. 14682v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Efficient multimodal document question answering with explicit visual grounding, locating the precise document region that supports each answer remains an open challenge.
The paper introduces V‑Rubrics, a reinforcement‑learning framework that evaluates vision‑language model responses by breaking them into atomic propositions and scoring them on Visual Faithfulness, Reasoning Consistency, and Instruction Following. Using a fine‑tuned Qwen3‑VL‑8B‑Instruct model and a newly created 50K‑example V‑Rubrics dataset, the authors demonstrate that rubric‑based GRPO outperforms both a shared SFT baseline and an answer‑only GRPO, especially on knowledge‑oriented and visually grounded reasoning tasks.
arXiv:2510. 17045v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Video reasoning using Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) relies on costly reinforcement learning (RL) and verbose chain-of-thought, resulting in substantial computational overhead during both training and inference.
