OmniFusion: выходим за границы текста
Кто-то ещё сомневается, что в мире машинного обучения происходит революция? Уверен, мы являемся свидетелями преобразования привычного взаимодействия с данными, поиска информации, да и вообще работы как таковой. Ведь умные ассистенты (ChatGPT, GigaChat, Bard) готовы взять на себя даже самые сложные задачи. Но не всегда возможно сформулировать проблему в виде текстового запроса, иногда требуется информация из других “модальностей” — картинка, звук, 3D и тд. Ниже я разберу какие именно есть способы соединения больших языковых моделей (LLM) с дополнительными форматами данных, а также опишу как устроена наша новая модель OmniFusion.
Kandinsky 3.0 — новая модель генерации изображений по тексту
Без чувства современности художник останется непризнанным. Михаил Пришвин В прошлом году на АI Journey мы представили модель Kandinsky 2.0 — первую диффузионную мультиязычную модель генерации изображений по тексту, которая может генерировать изображения на основе русскоязычного текста. За ней последовали новые версии — Kandinsky 2.1 и Kandinsky 2.2 , которые значительно отличались по качеству и своим возможностям от версии 2.0, и стали для нашей команды серьёзными вехами на пути к достижению лучшего качества генерации. Спустя год после релиза нашей первой диффузионной модели мы представляем новую версию модели генерации изображений по тексту — Kandinsky 3.0! Это результат длительной работы нашей команды, которую мы вели параллельно с разработками версий Kandinsky 2.1 и 2.2. Мы провели много экспериментов по выбору архитектуры и проделали большую работу с данными, чтобы сделать понимание текста и качество генераций лучше, а саму архитектуру — проще и лаконичнее. Также мы сделали нашу модель более «отечественной»: теперь она значительно лучше ориентируется в российском и советском культурном поле. В этой статье я кратко опишу ключевые моменты новой архитектуры, стратегию работы с данными и, конечно, продемонстрирую возможности нашей модели на примере генераций.

Excited to share: after my current postdoc at the FACESYNTAX project finishes, I'll join @ozyurek_a at the Multimodal Language Department @mpi_nl next year!
We'll use #VR and mocap to probe multimodal communication and language evolution in unprecedented ways. Looking forward to pushing boundaries with wild, insightful experiments. 🕹️😎

All right, here goes! I’m going to try my hand at a bit of #sociolinguistics #scicomm here and describe my latest publication for a lay audience. It’s my first try at this, so be gentle (but do ask questions if you have any!).
My study helps answer the question “What is identity, exactly, and how does it work?” It’s part of a long tradition of studies that have answered parts of that question, dating back several decades now. /1

So far I haven't really talked about my #research here, but I've seen other #academics announcing their books, so I think I'll at least try this out and see how it goes?
I'm one of the three editors of the new volume #Multimodal #Communication in #Intercultural #Interaction, and if you're interested in purchasing a copy for yourself (or more likely getting someone at your #university to do so), there's a hefty discount code in this flyer!

Since a lot has happened lately, it could be a good time to re-do an #introduction / #introductions.
As a political sociologist I work with text, digital methods & film on matters of #security, #counterterrorism & #surveillance, from a critical perspective.
I currently run the project @securityvision on the politics of computer vision with amazing media artists/designers/visual anthropologists: Ruben van de Ven (@r), Cyan Bae, Ildikó Plájás & Elka Smith.
At Leiden University I'm trying to promote research through making (#film, #photography, #art & other methods) at @recntr, together with Mark Westmoreland and Julian Ross.
I geek out on photo & cinema #cameras & #lenses as well as #floss and #coding, although more from the outside. Working on my first "hello world" in #python
