arXiv:2512. 03438v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Agentic reasoning models trained with multimodal reinforcement learning (MMRL) have become increasingly capable, yet they are almost universally optimized using sparse, outcome-based rewards computed based on the final answers.
arXiv:2607. 21013v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved impressive performance in multimodal emotion recognition (MER) tasks and lifted MER to a new level that is complex emotion understanding with advanced video understanding abilities and natural language description.
AffectOmni is a reinforcement‑learning‑trained framework that enhances multimodal large language models for affective reasoning in social and art‑related scenes. It introduces People Focus and Temporal Order rewards to prioritize people‑centric cues and structured reasoning, and uses within‑group comparative scoring for more discriminative rewards. A Thinking Summarizer converts rationales into executable evidence instructions, which are grounded into pixel‑level regions via SAM3, enabling external auditability.
The paper introduces ProAction, a multimodal dataset of 10,000 samples comprising visual, audio, and text inputs across 12 daily-life scenarios, designed to support the Proactive Robot Action Reasoning (ProRobo) problem. It presents a two-stage human-in-the-loop annotation pipeline that incorporates appraisal and Theory-of-Mind considerations to generate cognitively grounded high-level action labels. The authors benchmark multimodal large language models and propose MMC2Act, showing that training on ProAction significantly improves proactive action reasoning compared to general-purpose models.
The paper surveys how large multimodal models (LMMs) enhance agentic frameworks that combine perception, memory, reasoning, planning, and action. It examines the integration of multiple modalities—text, images, audio, and video—through delegated, late‑fusion, and early‑fusion architectures, and maps these designs to agent capabilities. The survey also reviews multimodal agentic systems in robotics, web navigation, multimedia content creation, and video understanding, evaluating performance, efficiency, and scalability trade‑offs.
Affective Image Content Analysis (AICA) aims to recognize and understand emotions elicited by visual content, representing an indispensable step toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). However, despite the rapid progress of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), systematic evaluation of their visual emotional intelligence remains largely absent from recent model releases.
