Object detection plays a vital role in multi-modal understanding systems, where images are input into models to generate proposals aligned with text. This process is crucial for state-of-the-art models handling Open-Vocabulary Detection (OVD), Phrase Grounding (PG), and Referring Expression Comprehension (REC). OVD models are trained on base categories in zero-shot scenarios but must predict both…

MLLMs, or multimodal large language models, have been advancing lately. By incorporating images into large language models (LLMs) and harnessing the capabilities of LLMs, MLLMs demonstrate exceptional skill in tasks including visual question answering, instruction following, and image understanding. Studies have seen a significant flaw in these models despite their improvements; they still have some…

3D-aware Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have made remarkable advancements in generating multi-view-consistent images and 3D geometries from collections of 2D images through neural volume rendering.
