WeVisOne-VL: Unified Visual Perception from Objects to Pixels

Tianming Liang, Junyi Pan, Yuxi Li, Canmiao Fu, Zhipeng Huang, Chong Sun, Chen Li, Jing Lyu

This paper develops a vision-language model (VLM) that can accurately perceive objects and pixels in images, which can be useful for various applications such as self-driving cars, medical imaging, and augmented reality. Practitioners in these fields may care about the potential improvements in visual perception and object detection that this model can bring.

Abstract

Existing vision-language models (VLMs) remain unreliable for fine-grained visual perception. In this report, we present WeVisOne-VL (WeChat Vision All-in-One), a powerful VLM that unifies object-level and pixel-level perception through structured next-token prediction. It supports multiple visual tasks including object detection, referring localization, counting, OCR, segmentation, and matting, enabling localization at any user-specific granularity, from points and boxes to masks and alpha mattes. Architecturally, we integrate a lightweight pixel decoder into the VLM via a special <OBJ> token to generate instance-level pixel outputs. We train the model with a three-stage curriculum SFT followed by mixed-task RL. Across over 30 benchmarks, WeVisOne-VL demonstrates leading performance on both object-level and pixel-level tasks, while maintaining robust rejection for object-absent queries. By releasing WeVisOne-VL to the open-source community, we hope to advance VLMs from broad visual understanding toward truly reliable perception systems for real-world deployment.
