Reinforcement Learning has significantly advanced the complex reasoning capabilities of MLLMs. However, prevailing RL algorithms suffer a severe failure in emotion reasoning tasks. These methods heavily rely on deterministic hard-label supervision and point-wise isolated evaluation, creating a fundamental gap with the …

Emotional Video Captioning aims to generate factually accurate and emotionally empathetic descriptions. While recent methods have recognized the importance of visual causes to guide emotion perception and caption generation, they fundamentally rely on simple attention matching, which inevitably suffers from {causal red …

While multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have demonstrated exceptional capabilities in objective understanding tasks, their performance in affective reasoning still falls significantly short of human standards. We attribute it to a central capability gap: MLLMs are difficult to reliably distinguish semantically p …
