arXiv:2602. 07026v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite the success of multimodal contrastive learning in aligning visual and linguistic representations, a persistent geometric anomaly, the Modality Gap, remains: embeddings of distinct modalities expressing identical semantics occupy systematically offset regions.

arXiv:2607. 07907v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With the growing adoption of VLMs, DMs, LLMs, and AFMs, these multimodal foundation models can inadvertently encode sensitive, copyrighted, biased, or unsafe cross-modal associations that originate from their training data.

arXiv:2607. 22586v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Key-Value (KV) caching is essential for efficient inference in multimodal large language models (MLLMs), yet its memory footprint grows linearly with context length and becomes a major bottleneck due to the large number of visual tokens.

arXiv:2607. 26947v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) rely on a projector to align visual representations with the language embedding space, making it central to cross-modal understanding.

arXiv:2606. 17057v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although Knowledge Editing provides an efficient mechanism for updating the knowledge of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), we find that current paradigms still suffer from an important yet remain underexplored issue : editing decoupling failure, where entity-related knowledge can be updated when the model is triggered by multimodal inputs (text--image query pairs), however, it often reverts to outdated pre-edit facts when the paired inputs are split into unimodal ones.
