Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are making rapid strides in complex visual reasoning. This survey synthesizes the emerging paradigm of Image-Grounded Chain-of-Thought (IG-CoT), where models ground intermediate inferences by interleaving textual rationales with visual state updates. We fo...

Visual segmentation, the task of segmenting an image into semantically meaningful regions, is a cornerstone in machine learning and has widespread applications in industry. Nevertheless, visual segmentation with instruction has been a challenging task for many years. This largely stems from the c...

Despite significant progress in video-language modeling, hallucinations remain a persistent challenge in Video Large Language Models (Vid-LLMs), referring to outputs that appear plausible yet contradict the content of the input video. This survey presents a comprehensive analysis of hallucination...

Advanced chart question answering requires both precise perception of small visual elements and multi-step reasoning across several subplots. While existing MLLMs are strong at understanding single plots, they often struggle with multi-step reasoning across multiple subplots. We propose HierVA, a...
