Short Biography [CV]

I am the third-year master student in East China Normal University under the supervision of Prof. Shaohui Lin, while I am also a Research Assistant of MMLab@The Chinese University of Hong Kong and working with Prof. Wanli Ouyang. Furthermore, I focus on AI Research and work closely with industrial AI Laboratory, like NLP Team@Xiaohongshu.

If interested in collaboration or discussion, please email me.

Research Interest

My research interests broadly lie in the areas of Multimodal Large Language Models, especially Multimodal Reasoning Models. current and previous focal areas include:

Citation 300+ & Star 700+ in six months, Preprint, first author
[ Paper ] [ Code ]
This is the first paper to explore how to effectively use R1-like RL for MLLMs and introduce Vision-R1, a reasoning MLLM that leverages cold-start initialization and RL training to incentivize reasoning capability.
[AIGC/Interleaving Reasoning/Unified MLLM] Interleaving Reasoning for Better Text-to-image Generation
Wenxuan Huang, Shuang Chen, Zheyong Xie, Shaosheng Cao, Shixiang Tang, Yufan Shen, Qingyu Yin, Wenbo Hu, Xiaoman Wang, Yuntian Tang, Junbo Qiao, Hangyu Guo, Yao Hu, Zhenfei Yin, Philip Torr, Yu Cheng, Wanli Ouyang, Shaohui Lin
Preprint, first author
[ Paper ] [ Code ]
This is an early exploration to introduce Interleaving Reasoning to Text-to-image Generation field and achieve the SoTA benchmark performance. It also significantly improves the quality, fine-grained details and aesthetic aspects of generated images.
[Efficient MLLM] Dynamic-LLaVA: Efficient Multimodal Large Language Models via Dynamic Vision-language Context Sparsification
Wenxuan Huang, Zijie Zhai, Yunhang Shen, Shaosheng Cao, Fei Zhao, Xiangfeng Xu, Zheyu Ye, Shaohui Lin
International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR) , 2025, first author
[ Paper ] [ Code ]
Dynamic-LLaVA is the first MLLM acceleration framework that simultaneously sparsifies both vision and language contexts while integrating inference efficiency optimization across different MLLM inference modes into a unified framework.
[Transformer Training Acceleration] A General and Efficient Training for Transformer via Token Expansion
Wenxuan Huang, Yunhang Shen, Jiao Xie, Baochang Zhang, Gaoqi He, Ke Li, Xing Sun, Shaohui Lin
IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) , 2024, first author
[ Paper ] [ Code ]
We proposed one plug-and-play Transformer training acceleration framework, without twisting the original training hyper-parameters, architecture, and introducing additional training strategies.
[AI4Geophysic] An Intelligent First Arrival Picking Method of Microseismic Signals Based on the Small Sample Expansion
Wenxuan Huang, Guanqun Sheng, Xingong Tang, Kai Ma, Jingyi Lu, Hang Sun
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing (TGRS) , first author
[ Paper ] [ Code ]
We proposed one GAN to generation the microseismic samples under unsupervised conditions to expand the microseismic data having a limited number of samples. Then we use the enhanced first arrival picking network to improve the accuracy of first arrivals of low SNR microseismic signals.
[Reasoning MLLM] Actial: Activate Spatial Reasoning Ability of Multimodal Large Language Models
Xiaoyu Zhan*, Wenxuan Huang*✝, Hao Sun*, Xinyu Fu, Changfeng Ma, Shaosheng Cao, Bohan Jia, Shaohui Lin, Zhenfei Yin, Lei Bai, Wanli Ouyang, Yuanqi Li, Jie Guo, Yanwen Guo
Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS) , 2025, co-first author (second) & project leader
We attempt to solve that current MLLMs cannot effectively capture the detailed spatial information required for robust real-world performance, especially cross-view consistency, a key requirement for accurate 3D reasoning.

ACM International Conference on Multimedia (ACMMM) , 2025, co-first author (second)
[ Paper ] [ Project Page ]
We propose the first end-to-end MLLM for soccer commentary generation, specifically designed for Single-anchor Dense Video Captioning (SDVC) in full-match soccer videos. The model jointly predicts timestamps and generates captions in a single pass, enabling global context modeling over 45-minute matches.
