arXiv:2503. 15639v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern scene text recognition systems often depend on large end-to-end architectures that require extensive training and are prohibitively expensive for real-time scenarios.
WordArt (artistic text) features highly customized fonts, textures, and layouts, making WordArt-oriented scene TExt Recognition (WATER) substantially more challenging than general Scene Text Recognition (STR). Existing STR datasets and methods, typically built around regular scene text and fixed-template inputs, struggle to scale to WATER.
arXiv:2606. 00987v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have shown strong visual understanding and language-guided grounding abilities, yet their capacity for multi-temporal visual reasoning remains underexplored.
arXiv:2607. 26107v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dense vision-language understanding, including object localization, region recognition, and open-vocabulary semantic segmentation, requires associating language concepts with spatially grounded visual regions.
arXiv:2607. 00684v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The classification accuracy of pretrained Vision-Language Models (VLMs) relies on the quality of the text prompts.
Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) has been shown to have limitations in its fine-grained dense feature representation, due to its pre-training focusing on matching the whole image to a text description. Considering the large data and computational burden in pre-training a vision-language model from scratch, a series of works aim to enhance the fine-grained ability of CLIP through a fine-tuning scheme.
arXiv:2605. 13178v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In large vision-language models, visual tokens typically constitute the majority of input tokens, leading to substantial computational overhead.
arXiv:2606. 08847v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite the success of image generation from text descriptions, it still faces challenges that are difficult to overcome in domains such as natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision (CV).
Scene text spotting requires high-precision alignment between textual recognition and spatial localization. While visual-token grounding has emerged as a promising formulation for Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), the previous multi-patch paradigm often introduces redundant noise and localization ambiguity, particularly for dense or small text instances.
arXiv:2606. 07451v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models such as CLIP are highly useful for diverse tasks due to their shared image-text embedding space.
Large-scale Vision-Language Models like CLIP have demonstrated impressive open-set localization capabilities at the image level. However, adapting this capability to pixel-level dense prediction poses challenges due to global feature biases.
arXiv:2603. 00171v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are shifting towards "Thinking with Images" by actively exploring image details.
arXiv:2607. 11862v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current Video Large Language Models (Video LLMs) excel in question answering (QA) but largely operate as black boxes, providing textual answers without verifiable visual grounding.
