Conclusion In this paper, we introduce the MIVPG, a flexible, general and powerful component to fuse enriched visual representations with MLLMs, which achieves superior performance in diverse use cases. We demonstrate that QFormer is a limited variant of MIVPG, providing theoretical support for its efficacy. We believe the enriched visual signals and advanced MIL-based techniques will contribute to the future development of MLLMs. References References [1] Famke Aeffner, Mark D Zarella, Nathan Buchbinder, Marilyn M Bui, Matthew R Goodman, Douglas J Hartman, Giovanni M Lujan, Mariam A Molani, Anil V Parwani, Kate Lillard, et al.
