arXiv:2608.22429v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) capable of thinking with images often rely on external tools for fine-grained perception. However, this relian...
arXiv:2608. 04726v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models increasingly reason over screenshots and documents where the task itself may be written in pixels.
arXiv:2601.19060v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal Retrieval-Augmented Generation (MM-RAG) augments visual question answering (VQA) with external knowledge, but many systems rely on...
Knowledge-Intensive Visual Question Answering (KI-VQA) benchmarks evaluate Vision-Language Models (VLMs) as multimodal knowledge assistants by requiring external information beyond a provided image to answer questions. KI-VQA involves multiple sub-problems -referring expression understanding, visual grounding, object recognition, knowledge retrieval, and reasoning-yet existing benchmarks typically report only end-task accuracy, obscuring where failures arise.
arXiv:2610.02117v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-policy self-distillation has recently emerged as an effective approach for improving language-model reasoning by supervising students with a froze...
arXiv:2607. 05798v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advancements in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have evolved from static perception to interleaved visual-language reasoning, often referred to as ``thinking with images''.
