Researchers have developed new methods for improving Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs). One approach, Token-level Response-visual Attention Guidance (TRAG), focuses on distilling response-to-vision attention signals rather than prompt-to-vision signals, using token-specific objectives to better mirror a teacher model's visual focus. Separately, a new benchmark called VKnowU has been introduced to evaluate the visual knowledge understanding of MLLMs, which goes beyond object recognition to assess comprehension of physical and social principles. Evaluations on VKnowU revealed that current leading MLLMs still lag behind human performance, particularly in understanding world-centric knowledge. AI
