- 在25种任务上表现优于现有模型,适合多任务视觉理解研究者
多模态大语言模型在海量数据训练后展现出强大的零样本能力,但在语义分割、关键点检测等密集预测任务中仅靠文本输出难以应对。当前基于隐空间嵌入的视觉解码方法在多任务与多粒度场景下适应性有限。本文提出端到端的REF-VLM框架,引入三元组指代范式(TRP),通过概念、解码类型和目标三要素分离复杂视觉任务,利用符号分隔符强化结构化表示学习,提升输出可解析性与可解释性。同时构建了包含超过1亿个多模态对话样本的视觉任务指令跟随数据集VT-Instruct,涵盖25种任务类型,支持点、框、草图、掩码等多种视觉提示及文本与视觉单元混合输出。实验表明,REF-VLM在多个标准基准上均优于现有模型。代码、数据集与演示将公开。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) demonstrate robust zero-shot capabilities across diverse vision-language tasks after training on mega-scale datasets. However, dense prediction tasks, such as semantic segmentation and keypoint detection, pose significant challenges for MLLMs when represented solely as text outputs. Simultaneously, current MLLMs utilizing latent embeddings for visual task decoding generally demonstrate limited adaptability to both multi-task learning and multi-granularity scenarios. In this work, we present \textbf{REF-VLM}, an end-to-end framework for unified training of various visual decoding tasks. To address complex visual decoding scenarios, we introduce the \textbf{Triplet-Based Referring Paradigm (TRP)}, which explicitly decouples three critical dimensions in visual decoding tasks through a triplet structure: concepts, decoding types, and targets. TRP employs symbolic delimiters to enforce structured representation learning, enhancing the parsability and interpretability of model outputs. Additionally, we construct \textbf{Visual-Task Instruction Following Dataset (VT-Instruct)}, a large-scale multi-task dataset containing over 100 million multimodal dialogue samples across 25 task types. Beyond text inputs and outputs, VT-Instruct incorporates various visual prompts such as point, box, scribble, and mask, and generates outputs composed of text and visual units like box, keypoint, depth and mask. The combination of different visual prompts and visual units generates a wide variety of task types, expanding the applicability of REF-VLM significantly. Both qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrate that our REF-VLM outperforms other MLLMs across a variety of standard benchmarks. The code, dataset, and demo will be publicly available.
