A lightweight decoder turns the model's own visual latents into masks, lifting referring comprehension 5.6 points over Qwen3.5.

Xiaomi presents Xiaomi-Lens-0, a 4B multimodal model built on Qwen3.5 that predicts masks from its own visual representations. A lightweight decoder combines vision-encoder patch features with language-model mask-token states, so mask supervision reaches the shared backbone without a separate segmentation encoder. Grounded reasoning traces supervise regions visited during chain-of-thought. Authors report a 5.6-point average gain over Qwen3.5 on eight RefCOCO-family splits and the highest segmentation cIoU among compared models.

Unconfirmed: Benchmark gains are author-reported, and public weight availability is not stated.

Key facts
  • Xiaomi-Lens-0 is a 4B model built on Qwen3.5.
  • Referring comprehension rises 5.6 points on average across eight splits.
  • Those splits cover RefCOCO, RefCOCO+, and RefCOCOg.
  • It reports the highest segmentation cIoU among compared models.
  • It also surpasses Qwen3.5 on every perception benchmark the authors cite.

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) answer questions about whole images well, yet they still struggle with fine-grained region understanding. A key reason is that text-only supervision never specifies which regions support an answer. To close this gap, we present Xiaomi-Lens-0, a 4B MLLM built on Qwen3.
