This paper introduces Instruction-guided Visual Masking (IVM), a new model that improves multimodal instruction following by creating visual masks for irrelevant image regions. IVM is designed to work with various multimodal models, such as LLM and robot models, and enhances their performance on tasks like VQA and embodied robotic control. The authors create a dataset, IVM-Mix-1M, with 1 million image-instruction pairs and develop a new learning technique, Discriminator Weighted Supervised Learning (DWSL), to train IVM effectively. Experimental results show that IVM significantly boosts the performance of diverse multimodal models on challenging benchmarks.

This paper helps machines better understand instructions by looking at pictures. Imagine you’re giving a robot instructions, but it’s not sure what part of the picture is important. This new model, called Instruction-guided Visual Masking (IVM), helps the robot focus on the right parts of the picture to follow your instructions correctly. The researchers created a big dataset with many examples and developed a special way to train IVM to make it work well. They tested IVM with different machines and found that it helped them do better on tricky tasks.
