Unified multimodal models combine image understanding and generation within one system, creating an opportunity to improve both capabilities through paired image--text supervision. We examine the outputs of a pretrained unified model in both directions and observe a loss of specificity: generated images can contain the...

UniSD integrates complementary mechanisms that address supervision reliability, representation alignment, and training stability, including multi-teacher agreement, EMA teacher stabilization, token-level contrastive learning, feature matching, and divergence clipping, and reveals when self-distillation improves over st...

Pretrained unimodal models offer a flexible route to multimodal prediction through collaboration, but this collaboration can become less accurate than a surviving unimodal model when modalities are missing. We study this setting using fixed surviving-model anchors and find that collaborative gains can weaken or reverse...
