I am currently an intern at at Shanghai AI Laboratory, and pursuing a PhD at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

My research interest includes multimodal large language models(MLLMs), reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) and retrieval-argument generation(RAG).

MIA-DPO: Multi-Image Augmented Direct Preference Optimization For Large Vision-Language Models

Ziyu Liu, Yuhang Zang, Xiaoyi Dong, Pan Zhang, Yuhang Cao, Haodong Duan, Conghui He, Yuanjun Xiong, Dahua Lin, Jiaqi Wang

We present Multi-Image Augmented Direct Preference Optimization (MIA-DPO), a visual preference alignment approach that effectively handles multi-image inputs. We use attention values to identify and filter out rejected responses the model may have mistakenly focused on…

MMDU: A Multi-Turn Multi-Image Dialog Understanding Benchmark and Instruction-Tuning Dataset for LVLMs [Accepted by NeurIPS2024!]

Ziyu Liu, Tao Chu, Yuhang Zang, Xilin Wei, Xiaoyi Dong, Pan Zhang, Zijian Liang, Yuanjun Xiong, Yu Qiao, Dahua Lin, Jiaqi Wang

We introduce MMDU, a comprehensive benchmark, and MMDU-45k, a large-scale instruction tuning dataset, designed to evaluate and improve LVLMs’ abilities in multi-turn and multi-image conversations.Our benchmark showcases a conversational setting with a maximum of 20 images and 17 turns. With a maximum of 18k text+image tokens, MMDU evaluates the capacity of LVLMs to process and comprehend extended contextual information with a long context history.

RAR:Retrieving And Ranking Augmented MLLMs for Visual Recognition

Ziyu Liu, Zeyi Sun, Yuhang Zang, Wei Li, Pan Zhang, Xiaoyi Dong, Yuanjun Xiong, Dahua Lin, Jiaqi Wang

Combining retrieving and ranking with multi-modal large language models to revolutionize perception tasks such as fine-grained recognition, zero-shot image recognition, and few-shot object recognition. Our method opens up new avenues for research in augmenting the MLLM’s abilities with the retrieving-augmented solution and could be beneficial for other tasks such as reasoning and generation in future works.
