Video reasoning requires Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) to remain grounded in dense evidence, yet existing systems largely adopt "read-once, generate-many" paradigm, in which visual grounding weakens during generation. This phenomenon has been widely observed and is known as Visual Anchoring Decay. To fill this gap, we introduce Latent Video Cache (Latent-VC), a recurrent latent visual cache inserted into the decoder to preserve compact visual memories throughout reasoning. The cache is trained with supervised contrastive cache alignment and vision-grounded GRPO with a latent grounding reward, while maintaining strict train-inference alignment through native decoder hidden states. Built on Qwen3.5-9B, Latent-VC consistently outperforms strong CoT and SFT+GRPO baselines across six video benchmarks, with especially clear gains on grounding-intensive and long-video tasks. In addition, it also achieves higher accuracy with substantially shorter responses, suggesting that latent visual caching improves video reasoning by preserving visual evidence rather than relying on longer textual chains.
MEMEs are widely used on the internet and often carry strong elements of sarcasm or irony. Understanding their hidden meanings typically requires a joint interpretation of text and vision. Existing methods focus on the dual-stream vision-language model to extract the visual and t…
Accurate yet low-latency depth is essential for radar-camera perception in autonomous systems. Cameras provide rich appearance but lack metric scale, whereas automotive radar offers metric range but is sparse and noisy. Many pipelines are multi-stage or depend on auxiliary annota…
Foreign language anxiety (FLA) can be a major barrier to second language acquisition (SLA), especially in conversational contexts. With the proliferation of large language models (LLMs) throughout all areas of life, recent work suggests that interacting with LLM agents can be ins…
Multimodal chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning integrates visual and textual cues through step-by-step inference. In small models with limited token budgets, modality-interaction fusion often suppresses tiny cross-modal differences. In particular, multimodal CoT often struggles when…
In production processes for consumer products, assembly instructions are essential not only for planning but also for executing the production process. Likewise in robotics, it is crucial for an assembly robot to understand how components fit together and can be assembled. To fac…
Collision anticipation in autonomous driving requires not only accurate early warnings but also interpretable reasoning about what risk factors are being tracked and how risk evolves over time. Existing methods fall short in this regard: feature-driven models are opaque, post-hoc…
