Existing video segmenter and grounder approaches, exemplified by Sa2VA, directly fuse features within segmentation models. This often results in an undesirable entanglement of dynamic visual information and static semantics, thereby degrading segmentation accuracy. To systematically mitigate this issue, we propose DeSa2VA, a decoupling-enhanced prompting scheme integrating text pre-training and a linear decoupling module to address the information processing limitations inherent in SAM-2. Specifically, first, we devise a pre-training paradigm that converts textual ground-truth labels into point-level prompts while generating corresponding text masks. These masks are refined through a hybrid loss function to strengthen the model's semantic grounding capabilities. Next, we employ linear projection to disentangle hidden states that generated by a large language model into distinct textual and visual feature subspaces. Finally, a dynamic mask fusion strategy synergistically combines these decoupled features through triple supervision from predicted text/visual masks and ground-truth annotations. Extensive experiments demonstrate state-of-the-art performance across diverse tasks, including image segmentation, image question answering, video segmentation, and video question answering.

Multimodal sentiment analysis aims to understand human emotions by integrating textual, auditory, and visual modalities. Although Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have achieved state-of-the-art performance via supervised fine-tuning (SFT), their end-to-end "black-box" nature limits interpretability. Existing methods incorporating Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning are hindered by high annotation costs, while Reinforcement Learning (RL) faces challenges such as low exploration efficiency and sparse rewards, particularly on hard samples. To address these issues, we propose a novel training framework that integrates structured Discrimination-Calibration (DC) reasoning with Hint-based Reinforcement Learning. First, we perform cold-start SFT using high-quality CoT data synthesized by a teacher model (Qwen3Omni-30B), which inherently contains the DC structure. This equips the model with a reasoning paradigm that performs macro discrimination followed by fine-grained calibration from the initial stage. Building on this, we propose Hint-GRPO, which leverages the discrimination phase within the DC structure as a verifiable anchor during RL to provide directional hints for hard samples, guiding policy optimization and effectively mitigating the reward sparsity problem. Experiments on the Qwen2.5Omni-7B model demonstrate that our method not only achieves higher accuracy in fine-grained sentiment regression tasks but also generates high-quality structured reasoning chains. Crucially, it exhibits superior generalization capability in cross-domain evaluations. This enhances model interpretability while validating the positive contribution of explicit reasoning steps to model robustness, offering a new paradigm for building trustworthy and efficient sentiment analysis systems.
