V-Rubrics: Visual Faithfulness via Rubric-Based Reinforcement Learning

Vision-language models can produce fluent answers that are insufficiently grounded in the visual evidence: a single unsupported object, chart value, or intermediate inference can undermine an otherwise plausible response. We argue that this is a credit-assignment failure in multimodal post-training. Scalar outcome rewa...

Think Before You Score: Thinking Reward Model for Visual Generation

The Thinking Reward Model (TRM), a paradigm that explicitly determines what matters for each case before judging how well the candidate performs, is proposed, which formulates case-adaptive rubrics, performs rubric-guided assessment, and produces fine-grained pointwise rewards.

Looped Diffusion Transformer

Improving text-to-image models has traditionally relied on increasing model size or the number of denoising steps. In this work, we explore an alternative way to scale computation by repeatedly running shared Transformer blocks within each denoising step, effectively increasing computational depth while keeping the par...

Learning Native Reflection in Unified Models with Interleaved Reinforcement Learning

UMM-Reflection is introduced, which applies reinforcement learning (RL) to complete reflection trajectories inside one unified model: sibling trajectories share one initial image, so the group-relative advantage compares reflection strategies, and one trajectory-level advantage updates both the reflection tokens and th...

SenseNova-U1.5: Towards Native Unified Visual Intelligence

Native unified modelling is position as a promising path towards systems that perceive, reason and create within a fully end-to-end framework through SenseNova-U1.5, an 8B-MoT native unified multimodal model that understands, reasons about, and generates visual content within an encoder-free and VAE-free architecture.

VBVR-Pro: A Scalable and Verifiable Suite for Native Visual Reasoning

This work introduces VBVR-Pro, a closed-loop testbed that makes native visual reasoning through generation trainable, verifiable, optimizable, and experimentally controllable, and identifies recurring failure modes of the prevalent VLM-as-a-judge paradigm.

Vision as Unified Multimodal Generation

Experiments show that a single unified model can match leading task-specialized systems across structured visual understanding, dense geometric prediction, segmentation, and multi-view visual geometry.
