Fusion Anything: A Generalized Multimodal Foundation Model

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.22107v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Making prediction with multimodal data is widely used in diverse scenarios. Existing multimodal fusion models, once deployed, can only handle predefined modalities (e.g., vision, text and audio) and single task, making it difficult to quickly adapt to new downstream applications. Therefore, a natural yet aggressive question arises - whether there exists a general multimodal fusion model that can be applied to arbitrary modality combinations and arbitrary prediction tasks. We argue that a unified multimodal fusion model should not depend on specific modalities and should instead encode transferable patterns of multimodal correlation. To this end, we propose a simple and effective learning paradigm based on training on large-scale synthetic
