The paper presents the first attempt at unsupervised preference alignment in Vision-Language Models (VLMs), allowing for robust and powerful answers without relying on supervision from GPT-4 or human involvement. The authors generate chosen and rejected responses to original and augmented image pairs, then conduct preference alignment using direct preference optimization. By properly designing augmentations to the image input, VLMs learn to produce more accurate answers. The pipeline achieves 90% relative score to GPT-4 on complex reasoning in LLaVA-Bench with only 8k unsupervised data and improves scores on MM-Vet by 6.7%/5.6%. Visualizations show improved ability to align with user-intentions.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The paper helps computers better understand images and words without being told what’s right or wrong. It makes a new way for machines to learn from mistakes, making them more accurate and helpful. The authors test their idea on some big datasets and it works really well! They show that the computer can now give better answers on complex problems. This is important because it could help computers be more useful in our daily lives.
