Master’s Thesis – Vision-Language Models
Technical University of Munich
- Conducted Stroop-inspired behavioral experiments on VLMs (e.g., CLIP, BLIP-2, Kosmos-2, LLaVA, InstructBLIP, Qwen-VL) to analyze word–color conflict resolution.
- Performed latent embedding analysis and steering experiments within CLIP’s representation space to study modality bias and directional controllability.
- Combined behavioral and representation-level evidence to explain how multimodal models prioritize textual versus visual cues.
