Abstract
This paper addresses two main objectives. Firstly, we demonstrate the impressive performance of the LLaVA-NeXT-interleave on 22 datasets across three different tasks: Multi-Image Reasoning, Documents and Knowledge-Based Understanding and Interactive Multi-Modal Communication. Secondly, we add the Dense Channel Integration (DCI) connector to the LLaVA-NeXT-Interleave and compare its performance against the standard model. We find that the standard model achieves the highest overall accuracy, excelling in vision-heavy tasks like VISION, NLVR2, and Fashion200K. Meanwhile, the DCI-enhanced version shows particular strength on datasets requiring deeper semantic coherence or structured change understanding such as MIT-States_PropertyCoherence and SlideVQA. Our results highlight the potential of combining powerful foundation models with plug-and-play techniques for Interleave tasks.
