Model Details

Model Description

VPPO-7B is a state-of-the-art Large Vision-Language Model (LVLM) specialized for complex multimodal reasoning tasks. It is the 7B parameter version of our model, fine-tuned from Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct using a novel reinforcement learning algorithm called Visually-Perceptive Policy Optimization (VPPO).

The core innovation of VPPO is its ability to solve the "uniform learning signal" problem that plagues standard RL fine-tuning. Instead of broadcasting a single reward to all tokens in a reasoning chain, VPPO intelligently identifies and focuses policy updates on the sparse, critical tokens that are highly dependent on visual input. This hierarchical "spotlight" mechanism allows the model to develop a more robust and genuine perception-grounded reasoning capability.

As a result, VPPO-7B demonstrates significant performance improvements over strong baselines across a wide range of challenging benchmarks, including mathematics, geometry, and logic problems. It also exhibits superior training stability and faster convergence.

Training Details

Training Data

The model was fine-tuned on **ViRL39K**, a diverse collection of multimodal reasoning problems. The original dataset can be found on the Hugging Face Hub: `TIGER-Lab/ViRL39K`.

Training Procedure

The model was trained using our Visually-Perceptive Policy Optimization (VPPO) algorithm, which is a modification of the Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) framework. The procedure involves generating responses, calculating token-level visual dependency, and using this dependency to shape the advantage and filter gradients during the policy update step.
