• Abstract: Having revolutionized natural language processing (NLP) applications, large language models (LLMs) are expanding into the realm of multimodal inputs. Owing to their ability to interpret images, multimodal LLMs (MLLMs) have been primarily used for vision-language tasks. Currently, MLLMs have not yet been extended for domain-specific visual tasks, which require a more explicit understanding of visual information. We developed a method to transform domain-specific visual and vision-language datasets into a unified question answering format called Visual Question Answering Instruction (VQA-IN), thereby extending MLLM to domain-specific tasks. The VQA-IN was applied to train multiple MLLM architectures using smaller versions of LLMs (sLLMs). The experimental results indicated that the proposed method achieved a high score metric on domainspecific visual tasks while also maintaining its performance on vision-language tasks in a multitask manner.

  We propose a novel Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLM) that empowers comprehension of arbitrary referring visual prompts with less training efforts than existing approaches. Our approach embeds referring visual prompts as spatial concepts conveying specific spatial areas comprehensible to the MLLM. We also propose a Geometry-Agnostic Learning paradigm (GAL) to further disentangle the MLLM's region-level comprehension with the specific formats of referring visual prompts.

  multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have made significant strides by training on vast high-quality image-text datasets. However, the inherent difficulty in explicitly conveying fine-grained or spatially dense information in text, such as masks, poses a challenge for MLLMs. This paper proposes a new visual prompt approach to integrate fine-grained external knowledge, gleaned from specialized vision models, into MLLMs.
