arXiv:2606. 03444v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unifying the complementary strengths of diverse Vision Foundation Models (VFMs) into a single efficient model is highly desirable but challenged by the negative transfer inherent in monolithic distillation.
arXiv:2604. 07753v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Empowering Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) with image generation often leads to catastrophic forgetting in understanding tasks due to severe gradient conflicts.
arXiv:2607. 00293v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Achieving true artificial general intelligence requires foundation models capable of integrating new modalities without forgetting prior knowledge.
arXiv:2606. 00275v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have demonstrated impressive performance on multimodal tasks through scaled architectures and extensive training.
arXiv:2608. 05000v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision offers a critical axis for advancing foundation models, driving a shift towards natively unified multimodal pretraining.
arXiv:2608. 16384v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Universal visual representations require adaptation mechanisms that adapt across heterogeneous domains without fragmenting knowledge into domain-specific modules.
Infrared-visible image fusion (IVIF) is pivotal for multimodal perception, yet reconciling the inherent information disparity between thermal and textural features remains a fundamental challenge. Existing prior-guided methods often rely on static constraints that induce optimization conflicts or utilize extrinsic semantic priors from large-scale foundation models (e.
arXiv:2608. 15516v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have demonstrated strong performance in multimodal understanding and generation.
arXiv:2402. 14035v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Knowledge distillation from foundation models to compact domain models is challenging due to substantial gaps in capacity, architecture, and modality.

arXiv:2608. 04454v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-experts vision-language models (MoE-VLMs) increase model capacity with sparse expert activation, yet deployment requires storing the full expert pool.
Mixture-of-experts vision-language models (MoE-VLMs) increase model capacity with sparse expert activation, yet deployment requires storing the full expert pool. Training-free expert merging reduces this burden, and many routing-based methods aggregate routing statistics across all tokens to determine merge compatibility.
arXiv:2607. 09526v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models are reshaping computational pathology, yet their capabilities remain shaped by pretraining objectives, data sources, and spatial scales, fragmenting complementary expertise across separate backbones.
