# Model Card for VPPO-7B

## Model Details

### Model Description

**VPPO-7B** is a state-of-the-art Large Vision-Language Model (LVLM) specialized for complex multimodal reasoning tasks. It is the 7B parameter version of our model, fine-tuned from `Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct` using a novel reinforcement learning algorithm called **Visually-Perceptive Policy Optimization (VPPO)**.

The core innovation of VPPO is its ability to solve the "uniform learning signal" problem that plagues standard RL fine-tuning. Instead of broadcasting a single reward to all tokens in a reasoning chain, VPPO intelligently identifies and focuses policy updates on the sparse, critical tokens that are highly dependent on visual input. This hierarchical "spotlight" mechanism allows the model to develop a more robust and genuine perception-grounded reasoning capability.

As a result, VPPO-7B demonstrates significant performance improvements over strong baselines across a wide range of challenging benchmarks, including mathematics, geometry, and logic problems. It also exhibits superior training stability and faster convergence.

## Training Details

### Training Data

The model was fine-tuned on [**ViRL39K**](https://huggingface.co/datasets/chamber111/VPPO_ViRL39K_train), a diverse collection of multimodal reasoning problems. The original dataset can be found on the Hugging Face Hub: [`TIGER-Lab/ViRL39K`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TIGER-Lab/ViRL39K).

### Training Procedure

The model was trained using our **Visually-Perceptive Policy Optimization (VPPO)** algorithm, which is a modification of the Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) framework. The procedure involves generating responses, calculating token-level visual dependency, and using this dependency to shape the advantage and filter gradients during the policy update step.
