• Abstract summary: Unified-IO 2 is the first autoregressive multimodal model capable of understanding and generating image, text, audio, and action. We train our model from scratch on a large multimodal pre-training corpus from diverse sources. With a single unified model, Unified-IO 2 achieves state-of-the-art performance on the GRIT benchmark.

• Abstract: We present Unified-IO 2, the first autoregressive multimodal model that is capable of understanding and generating image, text, audio, and action. To unify different modalities, we tokenize inputs and outputs -- images, text, audio, action, bounding boxes, etc., into a shared semantic space and then process them with a single encoder-decoder transformer model. Since training with such diverse modalities is challenging, we propose various architectural improvements to stabilize model training. We train our model from scratch on a large multimodal pre-training corpus from diverse sources with a multimodal mixture of denoisers objective. To learn an expansive set of skills, such as following multimodal instructions, we construct and finetune on an ensemble of 120 datasets with prompts and augmentations. With a single unified model, Unified-IO 2 achieves state-of-the-art performance on the GRIT benchmark and strong results in more than 35 benchmarks, including image generation and understanding, natural language understanding, video and audio understanding, and robotic manipulation. We release all our models to the research community.

  Existing text-to-video diffusion models rely solely on text-only encoders for their pretraining. We construct a large-scale multimodal prompt dataset by employing retrieval methods to pair in-context examples with the given text prompts. We finetune the model from the first stage on three video generation tasks, incorporating multi-modal instructions.

  We introduce TextBind, an almost annotation-free framework for empowering larger language models with the multi-turn interleaved instruction-following capabilities. Our approach requires only image-caption pairs and generates multi-turn multimodal instruction-response conversations from a language model. To accommodate interleaved image-text inputs and outputs, we devise MIM, a language model-centric architecture that seamlessly integrates image encoder and decoder models.

  We propose a decoder-only model for multimodal tasks, which is surprisingly effective in jointly learning of these disparate vision-language tasks. We demonstrate that joint learning of these diverse objectives is simple, effective, and maximizes the weight-sharing of the model across these tasks. Our model achieves the state of the art on image-text and text-image retrieval, video question answering and open-vocabulary detection tasks, outperforming much larger and more extensively trained foundational models.
