arXiv:2601. 03100v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) typically rely on a single late-layer feature from a frozen vision encoder, leaving the encoder's rich hierarchy of visual cues under-utilized.

arXiv:2605. 25820v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion-based multimodal large language models (dMLLMs) decode by iteratively predicting tokens at multiple masked positions in parallel.
By Yulin Yuan, Hongshuo Zhao, Xiangming Meng
Vision-language models commonly project all tokens produced by a pretrained vision encoder into a large language model. However, final-layer features can discard text, local attributes, and spatial relationships, while high-resolution inputs substantially increase context length and inference latency.
arXiv:2510. 00054v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have made significant strides in visual understanding tasks.
By Xianjie Liu, Yiman Hu, Yixiong Zou, Liang Wu, Jian Xu, Bo Zheng
Unified multimodal models (UMMs) interleave generated ''visual thoughts'' (VTs) with text reasoning to improve spatial tasks. This incurs roughly an order-of-magnitude inference cost from multi-step diffusion.
arXiv:2607. 25527v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unifying visual understanding and generation in one model holds immense promise, but remains challenging and expensive due to heavy compute and data demands and conflicts between the visual features needed for these two capabilities.
