| Challenge: | Recent advances in multimodal large language models focus on improving performance . however, language prior conflict leads to suboptimal vision-language alignment . |
| Approach: | They propose a method to decouple the alignment process from language prior interference . they use a proxy LLM to detach from language interference during pretraining . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves training performance and generalizes training data. |

| Challenge: | Existing datasets address understanding and generation in isolation, limiting the performance of unified vision large language models. |
| Approach: | They propose a dataset that facilitates mutual enhancement between multimodal understanding and generation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework integrates diverse visual and textual inputs and outputs, enabling comprehensive cross-modal reasoning and precise text-to-image alignment. |
