<h2 id="introduction">Introduction</h2>
<p>At the end of January this year, we launched the zen-VL series of models, which received widespread attention and positive feedback from the community. Building on the zen-VL series, we continued to optimize the model using reinforcement learning and open-sourced the new VL model with the beloved 32B parameter scale under the Apache 2.0 license — <strong>zen-VL-32B-Instruct</strong>. Compared to the previously released zen-VL series models, the features of this 32B VL model are as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Responses More Aligned with Human Preferences</strong>: Adjusted the output style to provide more detailed, better-formatted answers that align more closely with human preferences.</li>
<li><strong>Mathematical Reasoning</strong>: Significant improvement in the accuracy of solving complex mathematical problems.</li>
<li><strong>Fine-grained Image Understanding and Reasoning</strong>: Enhanced accuracy and detailed analysis in tasks such as image parsing, content recognition, and visual logic deduction.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="performance">Performance</h2>
<p>Extensive benchmarking against state-of-the-art (SoTA) models of comparable scale, <strong>zen-VL-32B-Instruct</strong> has demonstrated superiority over baselines, e.g., Mistral-Small-3.1-24B and Gemma-3-27B-IT, even surpassing the larger <strong>zen-VL-72B-Instruct</strong>. Notably, it achieves significant advantages in multimodal tasks such as <strong>MMMU</strong>, <strong>MMMU-Pro</strong>, and <strong>MathVista</strong>, which focus on complex, multi-step reasoning. On <strong>MM-MT-Bench</strong>, a benchmark emphasizing subjective user experience evaluation, <strong>zen-VL-32B-Instruct</strong> outperforms its predecessor <strong>zen-VL-72B-Instruct</strong> by a substantial margin.</p>

<p>In addition to excelling in visual capabilities, zen-VL-32B-Instruct has also achieved top-tier performance in pure text capabilities at the same scale.</p>

<h2 id="next-step">Next Step</h2>
<p>While <strong>zen-VL-32B</strong> has focused on optimizing subjective experience and mathematical reasoning through reinforcement learning—operating within the paradigm of <strong>"fast thinking"</strong>. Our next research direction will prioritize <strong>long and effective reasoning processes</strong> to push the boundaries of visual models in tackling highly complex, multi-step visual reasoning tasks.</p>
