Instead of reconstructing the underlying numbers, a model should judge relationships directly from the image, much as people do on exam questions. The authors built a synthetic corpus of five chart kinds: line, dot-line, vertical bar, horizontal bar… 2. **[Phi-4-Mini Technical Report: Compact yet Powerful Multimodal Language Models via Mixture-of-LoRAs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/microsoft-2025-phi-4-mini-technical-report/)** *(2025 · 152 citations)* Small language models usually trail larger ones at reasoning. Adding vision or audio to them typically means fine-tuning the backbone, which weakens its text skills and forces teams to run several separate models. In this report, Microsoft presents Phi-4-Mini, a 3.8B-parameter decoder-only model.
