Improve Vision Language Model Chain-of-thought Reasoning
Machine Learning Research at Apple
JUNE 4, 2025
Chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning in vision language models (VLMs) is crucial for improving interpretability and trustworthiness. However, current training recipes often relying on datasets dominated by short annotations with minimal rationales. In this work, we show that training VLM on short answers leads to poor generalization on reasoning tasks that require more detailed explanations.

However, post-hoc methods perform poorly when ASR inaccurately transcribes verbatim speech.
