The paper presents a simple yet powerful baseline for the multimodal dialog task, achieving near state-of-the-art results on two leaderboards: MMMU and AI Journey Contest 2023. The system is built around a pre-trained large language model, pre-trained modality encoders for image and audio, and a trainable modality projector. The proposed data mixture demonstrates that a multimodal model based on a strong language model and trained on a small amount of multimodal data can perform efficiently in the task.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The paper introduces a new approach to multimodal dialog that combines the strengths of language models and modality-specific encoders. By pre-training these components separately, the authors show that their system can achieve state-of-the-art results with minimal additional training data. This makes it an attractive solution for applications where large amounts of labeled data are not available.
