MuirBench is a new benchmark showing that top multimodal LLMs struggle with robust multi-image understanding, with GPT-4o at 68% and open-source models below 33% accuracy.
GRIP-VLM applies group-relative policy optimization via reinforcement learning to prune visual tokens in VLMs, yielding up to 15% inference speedup at matched accuracy over prior methods.
COAST prunes 77.8% of visual tokens in LVLMs with a 2.15x speedup while keeping 98.64% of original performance by adaptively routing semantic and spatial context via contrastive scores.
LLaVA-UHD v4 reduces visual-encoding FLOPs by 55.8% for high-resolution images in MLLMs via slice-based encoding plus intra-ViT early compression while matching or exceeding baseline performance on document, OCR, and VQA benchmarks.
LogicVista is a new benchmark dataset with 448 visual logic questions that evaluates multimodal LLMs on five reasoning tasks covering nine capabilities.
Extending language model context length enables LMMs to process over 200K visual tokens from long videos without video training, achieving SOTA on Video-MME via dense frame sampling.
SGLang is a new system that speeds up structured LLM programs by up to 6.4x using RadixAttention for KV cache reuse and compressed finite state machines for output decoding.
OCRBench provides the largest evaluation suite yet for OCR capabilities in large multimodal models, revealing gaps in multilingual, handwritten, and mathematical text handling.
HDPO reframes tool efficiency as a conditional objective within accurate trajectories, enabling Metis to reduce tool invocations by orders of magnitude while raising reasoning accuracy.
NoisyGRPO is an RL framework that perturbs visual inputs with Gaussian noise for exploration and computes trajectory advantages via Bayesian posterior fusion of noise prior and reward likelihood to improve multimodal CoT generalization.
A temporal pooling layer added to LLaVA smooths video feature distributions and lifts performance on dense video captioning and QA to new SOTA levels without extra parameters.
ZAYA1-VL-8B is a new MoE vision-language model with vision-specific LoRA adapters and bidirectional image attention that reports competitive performance against several 3B-4B models on image, reasoning, and counting benchmarks.
