As a result, they give generic words and content-bearing words equal weight and learn fine-grained correspondences between image and text poorly. ERNIE-ViL, from Baidu, addresses this by injecting structured knowledge from scene graphs. 2. **[ERNIE-Layout: Layout Knowledge Enhanced Pre-training for Visually-rich Document Understanding](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/peng-2022-ernie-layout-layout-knowledge/)** *(2022 · 40 citations)* Most document pre-training models treat layout as a 2D extension of 1D positions and serialize OCR output in raster-scan order (top-to-bottom, left-to-right). 3. **[ERNIE-ViLG: Unified Generative Pre-training for Bidirectional Vision-Language Generation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhang-2021-ernie-vilg-unified-generative/)** *(2021 · 33 citations)* Image captioning and text-to-image synthesis are two directions of the same mapping between vision and language, yet they have usually been handled by separate, task-specific architectures. 4. **[AttnPO: Attention-Guided Process Supervision for Efficient Reasoning](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/nie-2026-attnpo-attention-guided-process-supervision/)** *(2026 · 18 citations)* Reasoning models trained with RLVR tend to overthink, producing long chains of thought with little benefit. ## All works 5 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 4 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[ERNIE-ViL: Knowledge Enhanced Vision-Language Representations through Scene Graphs ↗](https://doi.org/10.1609/aaai.v35i4.16431) Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence · no summary yet**Fei Richard Yu et al.*2021 · 252 citations* 2.
