Jag

Jag, a Jev-inspired visual grounding model: a Qwen3.5-0.8B backbone plus a lightweight MLP predicts normalized cxcywh bounding boxes for an image and referring expression in a single forward pass, removing autoregressive coordinate generation from the base model.

About this project

Direct Box Prediction for Efficient Visual Grounding. Project page · Model · Demo. Jag adapts a compact multimodal model for continuous bounding-box prediction. Inspired by Jev, it returns the geometric answer directly, retaining the image–language processing of Qwen3.5-0.8B while removing autoregressive coordinate generation.

Highlights

  • An MLP reads the last valid input-token representation and predicts normalized cxcywh coordinates in one forward pass, supervised by L1 and GIoU losses.
  • The README reports 65.97 ms single-request latency and 15.16 samples/s for Jag versus 120.01 ms and 8.33 samples/s for NExT-Chat.
  • RefCOCO-family accuracy at IoU >= 0.5: 91.28 on RefCOCO, 85.80 on RefCOCO+, and 87.72 on RefCOCOg, leading the compared models on three of five splits.
  • Code is Apache-2.0; training uses Docker, ModelScope ms-swift, and EvalScope, with optional SwanLab logging.
  • Training freezes the vision encoder and adapts a regression head before joint training of the language backbone and visual merger.

Watch out

Code is Apache-2.0, but model weights and datasets keep their respective licenses; it is a Jev-inspired adaptation rather than a Jev endpoint, and training or evaluation needs Docker plus NVIDIA tooling.

Jev takes text only; Clef-omni adds image, audio, and video input and Liquid d1 adds images, each keeping the same typed-answer shape. Where that matters, where it does not, and the costs the vendors underplay.
