We introduce MobileVLM V2, a family of significantly improved vision language models upon MobileVLM, which proves that a delicate orchestration of novel architectural design, an improved training scheme tailored for mobile VLMs, and rich high-quality dataset curation can substantially benefit VLMs' performance. Specifically, MobileVLM V2 1.7B achieves better or on-par performance on standard VLM benchmarks compared with much larger VLMs at the 3B scale. Notably, our 3B model outperforms a large variety of VLMs at the 7B+ scale. Our models will be released at https://github.com/Meituan-AutoML/MobileVLM .

We present MobileVLM, a competent multimodal vision language model (MMVLM) targeted to run on mobile devices. It is an amalgamation of a myriad of architectural designs and techniques that are mobile-oriented, which comprises a set of language models at the scale of 1.4B and 2.7B parameters, trained from scratch, a multimodal vision model that is pre-trained in the CLIP fashion, cross-modality interaction via an efficient projector. We evaluate MobileVLM on several typical VLM benchmarks. Our models demonstrate on par performance compared with a few much larger models. More importantly, we measure the inference speed on both a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 CPU and an NVIDIA Jeston Orin GPU, and we obtain state-of-the-art performance of 21.5 tokens and 65.3 tokens per second, respectively. Our code will be made available at: https://github.com/Meituan-AutoML/MobileVLM.

With the fast-paced development of multimodal large language models (MLLMs), we can now converse with AI systems in natural languages to understand images. However, the reasoning power and world knowledge embedded in the large language models have been much less investigated and exploited for image perception tasks. In this paper, we propose Lenna, a language-enhanced reasoning detection assistant, which utilizes the robust multimodal feature representation of MLLMs, while preserving location information for detection. This is achieved by incorporating an additional <DET> token in the MLLM vocabulary that is free of explicit semantic context but serves as a prompt for the detector to identify the corresponding position. To evaluate the reasoning capability of Lenna, we construct a ReasonDet dataset to measure its performance on reasoning-based detection. Remarkably, Lenna demonstrates outstanding performance on ReasonDet and comes with significantly low training costs. It also incurs minimal transferring overhead when extended to other tasks. Our code and model will be available at https://git.io/Lenna.

Evolutionary game theory has been a successful tool to combine classical game theory with learning-dynamical descriptions in multiagent systems. Provided some symmetric structures of interacting players, many studies have been focused on using a simplified heuristic payoff table as input to analyse the dynamics of interactions. Nevertheless, even for the state-of-the-art method, there are two limits. First, there is inaccuracy when analysing the simplified payoff table. Second, no existing work is able to deal with 2-population multiplayer asymmetric games. In this paper, we fill the gap between heuristic payoff table and dynamic analysis without any inaccuracy. In addition, we propose a general framework for $m$ versus $n$ 2-population multiplayer asymmetric games. Then, we compare our method with the state-of-the-art in some classic games. Finally, to illustrate our method, we perform empirical game-theoretical analysis on Wolfpack as well as StarCraft II, both of which involve complex multiagent interactions.
