The paper introduces SOLAR, a multimodal generative model that jointly interprets visual and textual data to understand tomato leaf diseases across six question‑answering tasks. SOLAR aligns visual features with task‑aware language representations using a Fusion Expert module based on a mixture‑of‑experts, enabling it to generate contextually relevant answers for diverse diagnostic tasks. Evaluated on 41,677 images and 216,209 QA pairs, SOLAR outperforms state‑of‑the‑art vision‑only, vision‑language, and task‑specific models in both closed and open‑ended settings, demonstrating superior accuracy, robustness, and multimodal reasoning.
arXiv:2608. 08727v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: To address this gap, we introduce TomaMMU, a large-scale Tomato leaf disease MultiModal Understanding dataset, alongside TomaBench, a benchmark for evaluating VLMs on tomato disease understanding.
To address this gap, we introduce TomaMMU, a large-scale Tomato leaf disease MultiModal Understanding dataset, alongside TomaBench, a benchmark for evaluating VLMs on tomato disease understanding. TomaMMU comprises 28,808 high-quality images spanning 15 categories and 213,119 human-annotated visual question-answer pairs, generated through a three-stage pipeline comprising Data Collection, Human Annotation, and Question-Answer Generation.
arXiv:2508. 17117v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing plant-disease datasets target classification and detection, leaving vision-language models unable to support interactive, reasoning-based diagnosis.
AgriScope is a unified pixel‑grounded multimodal framework designed for agricultural image understanding, supporting image‑level, region‑level, and pixel‑level tasks such as grounded caption generation, referring expression segmentation, and multi‑turn multimodal interaction. It incorporates biologically specialized semantic representations with dense spatial grounding through biological‑semantic encoding, dense spatial representations, and pixel decoding. The authors also introduce AgriGround, a large‑scale dataset of over 500K images and 11M instruction‑following samples, created via an automatic annotation pipeline that combines caption generation, phrase‑level grounding, segmentation mask generation, and task‑oriented instruction synthesis to provide densely grounded supervision for agricultural vision‑language learning.
arXiv:2603. 14342v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern agricultural data is sourced from diverse platforms and spans multiple spatial scales, ranging from ground-level close-up photography to Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) aerial observation and satellite remote sensing imagery.
