abstract
Adapting general multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to specific domains, such as scientific and industrial fields, is highly significant in promoting their practical applications. This paper systematically investigates domain adaptation of MLLMs via post-training, focusing on data synthesis, training pipeline, and task evaluation. (1) Data Synthesis: Using only open-source models, we develop a generate-then-filter pipeline that curates diverse visual instruction tasks based on domain-specific image-caption pairs. The resulting data surpass the data synthesized by manual rules or strong closed-source models in enhancing domain-specific performance. (2) Training Pipeline: Unlike general MLLMs that typically adopt a two-stage training paradigm, we find that a single-stage approach is more effective for domain adaptation. (3) Task Evaluation: We conduct extensive experiments in high-impact domains such as biomedicine, food, and remote sensing, by post-training a variety of MLLMs and then evaluating MLLM performance on various domain-specific tasks. Finally, we fully open-source our models, code, and data to encourage future research in this area.

M3Bench is a clinically grounded benchmark showing that gradient-based VLM editors generalize but break locality, while memory-based editors preserve locality but fail on composition and temporal tasks, with failures traced to anisotropic latent representations.
AD-Copilot trains an MLLM on a new curated industrial dataset Chat-AD with a Comparison Encoder that uses cross-attention on image pairs, reaching 82.3% accuracy on MMAD and 3.35x gains on MMAD-BBox while generalizing and exceeding human experts on some tasks.
