From Qwen-VL to Qwen3-VL: How Multimodal Models Evolved

1h read

Published: Tags: , , Views:

TL;DR: This article traces four generations of the Qwen-VL family. The original Qwen-VL established visual-language alignment and a three-stage training pipeline. Qwen2-VL added dynamic resolution, M-RoPE, and video input. Qwen2.5-VL focused on inference efficiency, temporal video modeling, and post-training data quality. Qwen3-VL then moved visual-language fusion deeper into the model.

位置编码的发展历程:从绝对、相对到多模态旋转编码

TL;DR: 本文梳理位置编码的主要演进路线:从可学习绝对位置编码(BERT、GPT)和正弦绝对编码(Transformer)的限制,到相对位置编码(T5、Transformer-XL)的改进,再到旋转位置编码(RoPE)的突破性创新。RoPE 的特点是「以绝对之形,行相对之实」:对每个位置做绝对旋转,但 Attention 内积只依赖相对距离。后续的 2D-RoPE 和 M-RoPE 把这个机制扩展到视觉和多模态场景,用于现代视觉语言模型(如 Qwen2-VL、Qwen3-VL)中的二维/三维时空位置建模。贯穿全文的问题是:模型到底如何表示「距离」,以及这种表示如何同时兼顾外推、KV Cache 和多模态坐标。

The Evolution of Positional Encoding: From Absolute and Relative Positions to Multimodal RoPE

Published: Tags: , , Views:

TL;DR: This article follows the main line of positional encoding research: the limitations of learned absolute embeddings in BERT and GPT, sinusoidal encoding in the original Transformer, the improvements introduced by relative positional encoding in models such as T5 and Transformer-XL, and finally Rotary Positional Encoding (RoPE). RoPE applies an absolute rotation at each position, yet the resulting attention inner product depends only on relative distance. Later extensions, including 2D-RoPE and M-RoPE, carry the same mechanism into vision and multimodal models such as Qwen2-VL and Qwen3-VL. The question throughout is how a model represents distance while preserving length extrapolation, KV caching, and multimodal coordinates.

从 PPO 到 DPO 再到 GRPO:经典大模型强化学习算法解读

TL;DR:在大语言模型(LLM)的 RLHF 里,强化学习是后训练阶段绕不开的一条线。从 OpenAI 提出的 PPO,到斯坦福大学提出的 DPO,再到 DeepSeek 提出的 GRPO,都极大推动了 LLM 的能力涌现。本文将从原理、公式推导到工程实现,系统梳理这三大算法的核心思想与演进逻辑,帮助读者建立完整的技术图谱。

From PPO to DPO to GRPO: A Guide to Reinforcement Learning for LLMs

90 minutes read

Published: Tags: , Views:

TL;DR: Reinforcement learning runs through the post-training stage of RLHF for large language models. PPO from OpenAI, DPO from Stanford, and GRPO from DeepSeek have each changed how LLMs are trained after pre-training. This article covers their objectives, derivations, and implementations, then connects the design choices that led from one method to the next.

CapRL: 用强化学习激发视觉语言模型的描述能力

Paper: CapRL: Stimulating Dense Image Caption Capabilities via Reinforcement Learning (CVPR 2025) Authors: Xing et al. TL;DR: CapRL 把图像描述质量转化为一个可验证问题:如果一段 caption 足够完整,纯文本 LLM 应该能只根据它回答图像相关的 MCQ。这个设定避开了 LVLM-as-a-Judge 对长度和风格的偏好,也给 RL 训练提供了更稳定的奖励信号。

CapRL: Improving Vision-Language Model Captioning with Reinforcement Learning

Paper: CapRL: Stimulating Dense Image Caption Capabilities via Reinforcement Learning (CVPR 2025) Authors: Xing et al. TL;DR: CapRL turns caption quality into a verifiable question: if a caption is complete enough, a text-only LLM should be able to answer image-related multiple-choice questions from that caption alone. This setup avoids the length and style preferences of LVLM-as-a-Judge and gives RL training a more stable reward signal.
