统一视觉语言模型，用单栈实现感知与任务建模，提升密集预测精度。

Perception-centric systems are typically implemented with a modular encoder-decoder pipeline: a vision backbone for feature extraction and a separate decoder (or late-fusion module) for task prediction. This raises a central question: is this architectural separation essential or can a single early-fusion stack do both perception and task modeling at scale? We introduce Falcon Perception, a unified dense Transformer that processes image patches and text tokens in a shared parameter space from the first layer, using a hybrid attention pattern (bidirectional among image tokens, causal for prediction tokens) to combine global visual context with autoregressive, variable-length instance generation. To keep dense outputs practical, Falcon Perception retains a lightweight token interface and decodes continuous spatial outputs with specialized heads, enabling parallel high-resolution mask prediction. Our design promotes simplicity: we keep a single scalable backbone and shift complexity toward data and training signals, adding only small heads where outputs are continuous and dense. On SA-Co, Falcon Perception improves mask quality to 68.0 Macro-F$_1$ compared to 62.3 of SAM3. We also introduce PBench, a benchmark targeting compositional prompts (OCR, spatial constraints, relations) and dense long-context regimes, where the model shows better gains. Finally, we extend the same early-fusion recipe to Falcon OCR: a compact 300M-parameter model which attains 80.3% on olmOCR and 88.64 on OmniDocBench.
