Researchers have introduced DIVA, a novel post-training framework designed to enhance unified multimodal models (UMMs). DIVA addresses the challenge of conflicting optimization objectives in UMMs, where generation tasks require high-fidelity representations and understanding tasks need discriminative embeddings. By analyzing the divergence in internal representations, DIVA factorizes visual representations into shared and unique components, fostering synergy between the two branches. This approach leads to significant improvements, with an 8.46% gain in generation tasks and a 7.82% gain in visual understanding. AI
IMPACT Enhances existing multimodal models by resolving internal representation conflicts, potentially improving performance on both understanding and generation tasks.
