CapVector: Learning Transferable Capability Vectors in Parametric Space for Vision-Language-Action Models

This paper proposes a novel approach to address the challenge that pretrained VLA models often fail to effectively improve performance and reduce adaptation costs during standard supervised finetuning (SFT). Some advanced finetuning methods with auxiliary training objectives can improve performance and reduce the number of convergence steps. However, they typically incur significant computational overhead due to the additional losses from auxiliary objectives. To simultaneously achieve the enhanced capabilities of auxiliary training with the simplicity of standard SFT, we decouple the two objectives of auxiliary-objective SFT within the parameter space, namely, enhancing general capabilities and fitting task-specific action distributions. To deliver the goal, we only need to train the model to converge on a small-scale task set using two distinct training strategies, resulting in two finetuned models. The parameters' difference between the two models can then be interpreted as capability vectors provided by auxiliary objectives. These vectors are then merged with pretrained parameters to form a capability-enhanced meta model. Moreover, when standard SFT is augmented with a lightweight orthogonal regularization loss, the merged model attains performance comparable to auxiliary finetuned baselines with reduced computational overhead. Internal and external experiments demonstrate that our capability vectors (1) are effective and versatile across diverse models, (2) can generalize to novel environments and embodiments out of the box.

OmniPro: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Omni-Proactive Streaming Video Understanding

Omni-proactive streaming video understanding, i.e., autonomously deciding when to speak and what to say from continuous audio-visual streams, is an emerging capability of omni-modal large language models. Existing benchmarks fall short in three key aspects: they rely primarily on visual signals, adopt polling or fixed-timestamp protocols instead of true proactive evaluation, and cover only a limited range of tasks, preventing reliable assessment and differentiation of omni-proactive streaming models. We present OmniPro, the first benchmark to jointly evaluate omni-modal perception, proactive responding, and diverse video understanding tasks. It comprises 2,700 human-verified samples spanning 9 sub-tasks and 3 cognitive levels, covering 6 basic video understanding capabilities. Notably, 84% of samples require audio signals (speech or non-speech), and each sample is annotated with modality-isolation labels to enable fine-grained multimodal analysis. We further introduce a dual-mode evaluation protocol: Probe mode assesses content understanding by querying the model before and after each ground-truth trigger, while Online mode evaluates full proactive ability by requiring models to autonomously decide when to respond in streaming input. Evaluating 11 representative models reveals three key findings: (1) audio provides consistent gains but with highly variable utilization across models, (2) performance degrades significantly over time, indicating limited long-horizon robustness, and (3) non-speech audio perception remains the weakest dimension.

Stage-adaptive Token Selection for Efficient Omni-modal LLMs

Omni-modal large language models (om-LLMs) achieve unified audio-visual understanding by encoding video and audio into temporally aligned token sequences interleaved at the window level. However, processing these dense non-textual tokens throughout the LLM incurs substantial computational overhead. Although training-free token selection can reduce this cost, existing methods either focus on visual-only inputs or prune om-LLM tokens only before the LLM with fixed per-modality ratios, failing to capture how cross-modal token importance evolves across layers. To address this limitation, we first analyze the layer-wise token dependency of om-LLMs. We find that visual and audio dependencies follow a block-wise pattern and gradually weaken with depth, indicating that many late-layer non-textual tokens become redundant after cross-modal fusion. Motivated by this observation, we propose SEATS, a training-free, stage-adaptive token selection method for efficient om-LLM inference. Before the LLM, SEATS removes spatiotemporal redundancy via attention-weighted diversity selection. Inside the LLM, it progressively prunes tokens across blocks and dynamically allocates the retention budget from temporal windows to modalities using query relevance scores. In late layers, it removes all remaining non-textual tokens once cross-modal fusion is complete. Experiments on Qwen2.5-Omni and Qwen3-Omni demonstrate that SEATS effectively improves inference efficiency. Retaining only 10% of visual and audio tokens, it achieves a 9.3x FLOPs reduction and a 4.8x prefill speedup while preserving 96.3% of the original performance.

WinTok: A Win-Win Hybrid Tokenizer via Decomposing Visual Understanding and Generation with Transferable Tokens

Building a unified visual tokenizer is essential for bridging the gap between visual understanding and generation. Yet existing approaches struggle with the inherent conflict between these tasks, as a single token space is forced to support both high-level semantic abstraction and low-level pixel reconstruction. We propose WinTok, a concise hybrid tokenizer that achieves a win-win performance by explicitly decoupling the two objectives. WinTok supplements pixel tokens with a set of learnable semantic tokens, effectively mitigating cross-task interference without incurring the computational overhead of dual tokenizers. To further enhance understanding capability, we introduce an asymmetric token distillation mechanism: the semantic tokens are guided by pretrained semantic embeddings from any visual foundation model, enabling them to inherit strong discriminative power while maintaining flexibility. Across 10 challenging benchmarks, WinTok delivers consistent improvements in reconstruction, understanding, and generation. Trained on only 50M open-source data, WinTok surpasses the strong baseline UniTok by 11.2% in classification accuracy and achieves a competitive reconstruction rFID of 0.41, despite using substantially less training data. Code is released at https://github.com/markywg/WinTok.
