摘要

arXiv:2605.26656v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models are typically trained end-to-end to predict ground-truth answers, yet supervision signals are applied exclusively to text tokens. Visual tokens, the core carriers of visual information, are optimized only implicitly as part of the context, leading to coarse-grained visual understanding. Prior works attempt to supervise visual inputs but inevitably rely on auxiliary components such as additional decoders or forward passes, because visual tokens lack readily interpretable labels. This limits their practical applicability. In this work, we propose \textbf{D}irect \textbf{V}ision \textbf{S}upervised \textbf{F}ine-\textbf{T}uning (DV-SFT), which constructs explicit, token-level supervision for visual tokens and trains them through the same next-token prediction objective used for text.
