arXiv:2601. 10922v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study data curation for multimodal reasoning in a fixed-protocol fine-tuning regime, where the base model, optimizer, training schedule, and evaluation pipeline are held constant and the main degree of freedom is the training data.

arXiv:2606. 11576v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern Vision-Language Models (VLMs) benefit from chain-of-thought prompting and test-time scaling, but these gains often come with prohibitive inference cost due to large visual contexts and long decoding chains.
