arXiv:2607. 16727v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autoregressive multimodal large language models (MLLMs) suffer from error snowballing: a single incorrect inference early in a chainof-thought (CoT) trace corrupts all downstream reasoning.
Vision Language Models (VLMs) demonstrate strong perceptual abilities but remain limited in tasks requiring analytical reasoning across multiple visual states, such as multi-image comparison, change detection, and multi-step visual inference. These capabilities are critical for real-world multimodal applications where reasoning must be grounded in systematic differences between visual contexts.
