Understanding camera movement in natural language is critical for training and evaluating video generation models, among other applications. However, we demonstrate that existing vision-language models (VLMs) fail this task in surprising ways, frequently confusing translation wit…
Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) rely extensively on Visual Instruction Tuning (VIT) to elicit their multimodal reasoning capabilities. However, we find a discrepancy: VIT often packs multiple language tasks about the same image for conversational, multi-turn training, wherea…
Is the sense of touch a mechanism for human babies' learning of visual concepts? If so, can we quantify its importance, and to what extent do babies rely on their sense of touch for visual learning? To approach these questions in a principled way, we propose a structured coding s…
