Qwen-Image-2.0 Technical Report

We present Qwen-Image-2.0, an omni-capable image generation foundation model that unifies high-fidelity generation and precise image editing within a single framework. Despite recent progress, existing models still struggle with ultra-long text rendering, multilingual typography, high-resolution photorealism, robust instruction following, and efficient deployment, especially in text-rich and compositionally complex scenarios. Qwen-Image-2.0 addresses these challenges by coupling Qwen3-VL as the condition encoder with a Multimodal Diffusion Transformer for joint condition-target modeling, supported by large-scale data curation and a customized multi-stage training pipeline. This enables strong multimodal understanding while preserving flexible generation and editing capabilities. The model supports instructions of up to 1K tokens for generating text-rich content such as slides, posters, infographics, and comics, while significantly improving multilingual text fidelity and typography. It also enhances photorealistic generation with richer details, more realistic textures, and coherent lighting, and follows complex prompts more reliably across diverse styles. Extensive human evaluations show that Qwen-Image-2.0 substantially outperforms previous Qwen-Image models in both generation and editing, marking a step toward more general, reliable, and practical image generation foundation models.

TAME: Test-Time Adversarial Prompt Tuning via Mixture-of-Experts for Vision-Language Models

Large-scale pre-trained Vision-Language models (VLMs), such as CLIP, exhibit strong zero-shot generalization, yet remain highly vulnerable to imperceptible adversarial perturbations, raising serious safety concerns for open-world deployment. To enhance robustness without requiring downstream task-specific retraining, we propose TAME, a novel test-time defense. Building upon our prior Test-Time Adversarial Prompt Tuning (TAPT), TAME introduces an architectural reformulation by replacing TAPT's single adaptive prompt with an input-conditioned Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) framework, enabling more expressive and adaptive defense. Specifically, TAME maintains a bank of learnable expert prompts and employs an input-dependent routing mechanism to aggregate a customized prompt mixture for each unlabeled test sample at inference time. This test-time defense mechanism is driven by three unsupervised objectives: (1) multi-view prediction entropy minimization, (2) layer-wise alignment of visual token statistics to precomputed clean and adversarial reference distributions, and (3) MoE regularization for balanced expert utilization and prompt diversity. We evaluated TAME on 11 benchmark datasets, including ImageNet and 10 additional zero-shot datasets. The results show that TAME improves the zero-shot adversarial robustness of the original CLIP by at least 49.1% under AutoAttack while largely preserving generalization on clean samples. TAME also consistently outperforms existing adversarial prompt tuning methods across multiple prompt designs, yielding an average robustness gain of at least 30.2%.

WildClawBench: A Benchmark for Real-World, Long-Horizon Agent Evaluation

Large language and vision-language models increasingly power agents that act on a user's behalf through command-line interface (CLI) harnesses. However, most agent benchmarks still rely on synthetic sandboxes, short-horizon tasks, mock-service APIs, and final-answer checks, leaving open whether agents can complete realistic long-horizon work in the runtimes where they are deployed. This work presents WildClawBench, a native-runtime benchmark of 60 human-authored, bilingual, multimodal tasks spanning six thematic categories. Each task averages roughly 8 minutes of wall-clock time and over 20 tool calls, and runs inside a reproducible Docker container hosting an actual CLI agent harness (OpenClaw, Claude Code, Codex, or Hermes Agent) with access to real tools rather than mock services. Grading is hybrid, combining deterministic rule-based checks, environment-state auditing of side effects, and an LLM/VLM judge for semantic verification. Across 19 frontier models, the best, Claude Opus 4.7, reaches only 62.2% overall under OpenClaw, while every other model stays below 60%, and switching harness alone shifts a single model by up to 18 points. These results show that long-horizon, native-runtime agent evaluation remains a far-from-resolved task for current frontier models. We release the tasks, code, and containerized tooling to support reproducible evaluation.
