DUALVISION: RGB-Infrared Multimodal Large Language Models for Robust Visual Reasoning
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved impressive performance on visual perception and reasoning tasks with RGB imagery, yet they remain fragile under common degradations, such as fog, blur, or low-light conditions. Infrared (IR) imaging, a well-established complement to RGB, offers inherent robustness in these conditions, but its integration into MLLMs remains underexplored. To bridge this gap, we propose DUALVISION, a lightweight fusion module that efficiently incorporates IR-RGB information into MLLMs via patch-level localized cross-attention. To support training and evaluation and to facilitate future research, we also introduce DV-204K, a dataset of ~25K publicly avai...
