arXiv:2606. 23885v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Representation alignment has emerged as an effective approach to improve Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) by regularizing their internal representations toward those of an external vision encoder.

arXiv:2505. 20142v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In deep learning, functional similarity evaluation quantifies the extent to which independently trained models learn similar input--output relationships.

arXiv:2510. 17426v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The "alignment tax" of post-training is typically framed as a drop in task accuracy.

arXiv:2602. 07026v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite the success of multimodal contrastive learning in aligning visual and linguistic representations, a persistent geometric anomaly, the Modality Gap, remains: embeddings of distinct modalities expressing identical semantics occupy systematically offset regions.
