1. **[OCRBench: On the Hidden Mystery of OCR in Large Multimodal Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/liu-2023-ocrbench-hidden-mystery-ocr-large/)** *(2023 · 306 citations)* Large multimodal models (LMMs) can often read text in images without OCR-specific training, but how well they do this had not been measured systematically.
2. **[Monkey: Image Resolution and Text Label Are Important Things for Large Multi-modal Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2023-monkey-image-resolution-text-label/)** *(2023 · 222 citations)* Large multimodal models (LMMs) usually see images at low resolution, such as 448×448, and are pretrained on short, shallow captions from corpora like LAION, COYO and CC3M.
3. **[Doc-V*: Coarse-to-Fine Interactive Visual Reasoning for Multi-Page Document VQA](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zheng-2026-doc-v-coarse-fine-interactive/)** *(2026)* The paper addresses question answering over long, visually dense multi-page documents without OCR. Existing approaches have clear weaknesses. End-to-end multimodal models handle long documents poorly as page counts grow. Visual RAG pipelines depend on a fixed top-k retrieval step and cannot adjust once reading…
4. **[I2E: From Image Pixels to Actionable Interactive Environments for Text-Guided Image Editing](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yu-2026-i2e-image-pixels-actionable-interactive/)** *(2026)* Most text-guided image editors repaint pixels end to end. This works for simple requests but fails on compositional instructions that need precise local control and reasoning about several objects. The authors trace the failures to three causes: planning and execution happen in one generation pass, there is no…
