Adapting pretrained multi-modal models to evolving test-time distributions, known as multi-modal test-time adaptation, presents a significant challenge. Existing methods frequently encounter negative transfer in the unbiased modality and catastrophic forgetting in the biased modality. To address the
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) that "think with images" can interactively use tools to reason about visual inputs, but current approaches often rely on a narrow set of tools with limited real-world necessity and scalability. In this work, we first reveal a critical and previously overlooke
Efficient transfer learning methods such as adapter-based methods have shown great success in unimodal models and vision-language models. However, existing methods have two main challenges in fine-tuning multimodal models. Firstly, they are designed for vision-language tasks and fail to extend to si…
Multimodal sentiment analysis (MSA) is an emerging research topic that aims to understand and recognize human sentiment or emotions through multiple modalities. However, in real-world dynamic scenarios, the distribution of target data is always changing and different from the source data used to tra…
Diffusion customization methods have achieved impressive results with only a minimal number of user-provided images. However, existing approaches customize concepts collectively, whereas real-world applications often require sequential concept integration. This sequential nature can lead to catastro…
Prompt learning has demonstrated promising results in fine-tuning pre-trained multimodal models. However, the performance improvement is limited when applied to more complex and fine-grained tasks. The reason is that most existing methods directly optimize the parameters involved in the prompt gener…
Missing modality issues are common in real-world applications, arising from factors such as equipment failures and privacy concerns. When fine-tuning pre-trained models on downstream datasets with missing modalities, performance can degrade significantly. Current methods often aggregate various miss…
To address the deficiencies in chart types and the limited scope of chart tasks in existing datasets, we conducted a comprehensive review of current data collection methodologies. By integrating manual annotation with data generation leveraging GPT-4, we developed a dataset that includes 21 diverse…
Test-Time Adaptation (TTA) aims to tackle distribution shifts using unlabeled test data without access to the source data. In the context of multimodal data, there are more complex noise patterns than unimodal data such as simultaneous corruptions for multiple modalities and missing modalities. Besi…
We propose a novel method, \textbf{TwinAct}, to tackle the challenge of decoupling actions and actors in order to customize the text-guided diffusion models (TGDMs) for few-shot action image generation. TwinAct addresses the limitations of existing methods that struggle to decouple actions from othe…
Multimodal learning has developed very fast in recent years. However, during the multimodal training process, the model tends to rely on only one modality based on which it could learn faster, thus leading to inadequate use of other modalities. Existing methods to balance the training process always…
The development of multimodal models has significantly advanced multimodal sentiment analysis and emotion recognition. However, in real-world applications, the presence of various missing modality cases often leads to a degradation in the model’s performance. In this work, we propose a novel multimo…
