GoT-R1-7B
GoT-R1-7B is a multimodal large language model (MLLM) designed for high-quality text-to-image generation with advanced semantic-spatial reasoning, as introduced in the paper GoT-R1: Unleashing Reasoning Capability of MLLM for Visual Generation with Reinforcement Learning.

Overview
Visual generation models often struggle with complex prompts that specify multiple objects with precise spatial relationships and attributes. GoT-R1 addresses this by applying reinforcement learning to enhance semantic-spatial reasoning. Building upon the Generation Chain-of-Thought (GoT) approach, GoT-R1 enables models to autonomously discover effective reasoning strategies. The model uses a unified MLLM architecture (based on Janus-Pro) that autoregressively generates a textual reasoning chain followed by image tokens.
