The paper introduces Vision-of-Thought (VoT), a framework that inserts a discrete visual-thinking layer between vision‑language models (VLMs) and diffusion transformers (DiTs). Instead of using VLMs solely as text encoders, they act as multimodal planners that generate VoT tokens—high‑level visual plans such as objects and layouts—before pixel rendering. A specialized VoT tokenizer is trained with a closed‑loop objective combining VLM alignment, feature reconstruction, and vector‑quantization losses, ensuring the tokens are semantically readable by the VLM while preserving necessary visual information. Experimental results show that VoT improves semantic alignment and offers a structured, interpretable interface for controllable generation.
Bernini proposes a unified framework that separates semantic planning and pixel rendering for video generation and editing. An MLLM-based planner predicts target semantics in ViT embedding space, while a DiT-based renderer synthesizes pixels conditioned on this plan, text features, and source VAE features for editing. The approach introduces Segment-Aware 3D Rotary Positional Embedding and chain-of-thought reasoning, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance on diverse video benchmarks.
