Prism introduces a novel bidirectional self-teaching framework for Unified Multimodal Models that decouples text and image generation chains based on their internal reliability. By eliminating the need for external verifiers or ground-truth trajectories, this method achieves measurable gains in both visual understanding and generative capabilities across SenseNova-U1 and BAGEL benchmarks. The approach represents a significant step toward more autonomous post-training pipelines for large-scale multimodal systems.
Prism: Bidirectional Self-Teaching for Unified Multimodal Models
arXiv:2611.06343v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unified Multimodal Models (UMMs) aim to support visual understanding and generation within a single model. Existing post-training methods either use understanding as a fixed teacher to improve generation, or rely on ground-truth trajectories to supervise both understanding and generation. Prism instead derives bidirectional supervision from self-generated interleaved rollouts, constructing training targets according to the reliability of their text and image chains. We propose Prism, a bidirectional self-teaching post-training method for UMMs. Like a prism decomposing mixed light, Prism decouples a coupled interleaved trajectory into a text chain and an image chain, assesses the reliability of each chain, and constructs a corresponding training target from their reliability states. Experiments on both SenseNova-U1 and BAGEL show that Prism improves both understanding and generation. On the generation side, GenEval improves from 85.8 to 89.2 (+3.4), and DPG improves from 86.1 to 87.3 (+1.2) on SenseNova-U1. On the understanding side, the total MME score improves from 2282.6 to 2311.6, and MMVP improves from 58.0 to 62.0. Consistent improvements are observed on BAGEL. These results highlight that Prism enables coordinated improvements in generation and understanding by constructing reliability-guided self-training targets from self-generated trajectories, without relying on an external verifier or externally annotated corrected trajectories during target construction.
