From Pixels to Prompts: Vision-Language Models
When you read a paper about a new Vision-Language Model today, it can be easy to forget how strange this idea would have sounded not so long ago. Teaching machines to see was already hard. Teaching them to read and generate language was already hard. Asking them to do both at once - and then to reason, answer questions, follow instructions, and sometimes even surprise us - still carries a quiet trace of science fiction, even as it becomes routine. This book was born from a simple feeling: it is too easy to get lost. The field moves quickly, new model names appear constantly, and the gap between "I know the buzzwords" and "I actually understand how this works" can feel uncomfortably wide. I have felt that gap many times. If you are holding this book, you probably have too. My goal is not to provide an exhaustive catalog of every dataset, benchmark, and new model variant. Instead, I want to offer something more modest - and, I hope, more durable: a clear mental map of Vision-Language Models. Enough structure that you can read new papers with confidence; enough intuition that you can design your own systems without feeling as if you are assembling LEGO bricks blindly.

Attention, Please! PixelSHAP Reveals What Vision-Language Models Actually Focus On
Interpretability in Vision-Language Models (VLMs) is crucial for trust, debugging, and decision-making in high-stakes applications. We introduce PixelSHAP, a model-agnostic framework extending Shapley-based analysis to s…
Autonomous DrivingDecision MakingCARIS: Context-Augmented Referring Image Segmentation
Referring image segmentation aims to segment the target object described by a natural-language utterance. Recent approaches typically distinguish pixels by aligning pixel-wise visual features with linguistic features ext…

Recent success of vision foundation models have shown promising performance for the 2D perception tasks. However, it is difficult to train a 3D foundation network directly due to the limited dataset and it remains under …
Scene SegmentationSequential Modeling Enables Scalable Learning for Large Vision Models
We introduce a novel sequential modeling approach which enables learning a Large Vision Model (LVM) without making use of any linguistic data. To do this, we define a common format, "visual sentences", in which we can re…
