Multimodal Large Concept Models
Large Concept Models (LCM) are a compelling alternative to traditional token-based LLMs, where tokens are replaced by dense vectors (representing higher level "concepts") as provided by a textual embedding space. This paradigm shift has, so far, being investigated for the case of text. In this thesis we aim at explore the frontier of building a Multimodal version of an LCM and extending the idea of conceptualization to both text and images.
A relevant impact is expected in terms of scientifc publications.
Large-Scale Multimodal Models
Large Multimodal Models integrate Vision and Language towards the achievement of human-like conversation abilities. The theses in this context explore novel architectures, multimodal connectors, novel training strategies and evaluation scenarios.
