Large language models (LLMs) trained only on text and code can sometimes generate programs that draw recognizable images. However, it is unclear whether this reflects an internal representation of 2D...
SenseNova-U1.5 is an 8B‑MoT native unified multimodal model that can understand, reason about, and generate visual content without using an encoder or VAE. It improves visual fidelity and text rendering through spatially coherent patch reconstruction, large‑scale training on curated generation and editing data, and native resolutions up to 4K. Post‑training, specialized experts for visual aesthetics, bilingual text rendering, infographic generation, and image editing are optimized and distilled into a multi‑expert framework, yielding advances in image fidelity, complex composition, multi‑reference editing, and instruction following.

The paper surveys Multimodal Code Intelligence, focusing on tasks where code is generated, edited, refined, or reasoned about under visually grounded inputs such as screenshots, charts, and videos. It categorizes the field by the role of code—rendered artifact, editable structure, intermediate reasoning trace, or executable tool interface—and organizes benchmarks into four domains: Graphical User Interface, Scientific Visualization, Structured Graphics, and Frontier Tasks and Frameworks. The authors argue that reliable evaluation must include evidence of semantics and interaction beyond visual fidelity, and propose four verification-centered research directions to advance the field toward evidence-grounded executable systems.

CoVA‑SFT is a new large‑scale dataset comprising 51.9K samples and over 222K multimodal reasoning steps that teach models to interleave text and visual abstractions across five layout families and 17 complex tasks. It includes explicit rationale formulations, agentic renderings, and verification loops to help models build and maintain internal visual workspaces for purely textual reasoning problems. A companion benchmark, CoVA‑Bench, contains 1,700 held‑out test samples for reproducible evaluation, and models fine‑tuned on CoVA‑SFT outperform all interleaved CoT baselines by more than 2× on average, though they still lag behind strong text‑only CoT baselines.
