• Abstract: This paper presents an innovative approach called BGTAI to simplify multimodal understanding by utilizing gloss-based annotation as an intermediate step in aligning Text and Audio with Images. While the dynamic temporal factors in textual and audio inputs contain various predicate adjectives that influence the meaning of the entire sentence, images, on the other hand, present static scenes. By representing text and audio as gloss notations that omit complex semantic nuances, a better alignment with images can potentially be achieved. This study explores the feasibility of this idea, specifically, we first propose the first Langue2Gloss model and then integrate it into the multimodal model UniBriVL for joint training. To strengthen the adaptability of gloss with text/audio and overcome the efficiency and instability issues in multimodal training, we propose a DS-Net (Data-Pair Selection Network), an Result Filter module, and a novel SP-Loss function. Our approach outperforms previous multimodal models in the main experiments, demonstrating its efficacy in enhancing multimodal representations and improving compatibility among text, audio, visual, and any sequence modalities.

  Recent advancements in multimodal models highlight the value of rewritten captions for improving performance. It is not clear whether synthetic captions and their interaction with original web-crawled AltTexts in pre-training is still not well understood. We propose a novel, controllable, and scalable captioning pipeline designed to generate diverse caption formats tailored to various multimodal models.

  We introduce FCNet, a framework that employs a bi-directional guided fusion approach where both vision and language play guiding roles. Specifically, we use a vision-guided approach to conduct initial multi-modal fusion, obtaining multi-modal features that focus on key vision information. We then propose a language-guided calibration module to further calibrate these multi-modal features, ensuring they understand the context of the input sentence.
