arXiv:2607. 12112v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated fine-tuning of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) across distributed networks enables privacy-sensitive adaptation to evolving data streams, yet a fundamental obstacle prevents robust deployment in dynamic environments: catastrophic forgetting, wherein sequential task updates erase previously acquired knowledge across visual, linguistic, and cross-modal representations.

Human cognition does not separate understanding and generation. A teacher at a whiteboard speaks and draws $\textit{together}$, each modality reshapes the other.
Automatic speech recognition is dominated by autoregressive decoders that emit one token at a time. We ask whether a discrete diffusion language model can transcribe speech instead, refining a whole transcript in parallel over a small number of denoising steps.
Data assimilation estimates the state of a dynamical system from model forecasts and incoming observations. Many observation mechanisms, however, are many-to-one, implicit, non-smooth, or accessible only through simulation, and need not provide the residual structures or likelihood guidance required by existing ensemble filters.
Building capable embodied agents requires not only multimodal perception and understanding, but also agentic capabilities for reasoning about actions, adapting to evolving situations, and interacting with the physical world. In this report, we introduce Hy-Embodied-VLM-1.
Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting is widely used as a test-time scaling strategy for Vision-Language Models (VLMs), but it remains unclear what is extended when VLMs generate longer reasoning traces. We ask whether CoT requires continued access to image tokens, or whether it mainly operates over visual information already made available earlier in the forward pass.
Learning broad world knowledge directly from raw visual data is a fundamental capability of intelligence. We introduce UniVR, the first investigation into simultaneously learning complex reasoning, fine-grained physical dynamics, and long-term planning from pure visual demonstrations.
Recent advances in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have significantly improved the performance of multimodal emotion recognition (MER) and enabled interpretable description generation by jointly modeling video, audio, and language, etc. However, these performance improvements are often accompanied by an increase in model parameter size (e.
Cross-image comparative reasoning remains challenging for vision-language models (VLMs), especially when correct prediction requires fine-grained attribute grounding and globally consistent reasoning. We present CoRe, a unified framework for this problem.
Beyond perception, reasoning is essential in remote sensing for advanced interpretation, inference, and decision-making. Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have enabled tool-augmented agents that leverage external tools to perform complex analytical tasks.
Reliable confidence -- the probability that a model's own answer is correct -- is essential for the trustworthy deployment of language models. Existing work has largely evaluated confidence by how well it predicts correctness and whether it is calibrated, leaving open a more fundamental question: what does the confidence signal itself represent?
Large-scale Vision-Language Models have demonstrated impressive transfer learning capabilities across a wide range of tasks. For few-shot classification, we observe that VLMs exhibit a notable ability to filter candidate categories and thus achieve high Top-K accuracy.
