summary: "GroundingPI is a 4B grounding foundation model that generates points and boxes as quantized coordinates in a shared vocabulary. It establishes a new state of the art across 34 grounding benchmarks with an average of 73.68%, which is above GPT-6 Astra at 71.54%. As a downstream visual backbone, GroundingPI improves performance on robotic manipulation and autonomous driving."
