Multimodal NLP/Evidence
Method evidence record

Multimodal NLP

Multimodal NLP is a family of natural-language-processing pipelines that combine text with one or more additional data modalities — most commonly images, but also audio and video — to perform understanding and generation tasks such as visual question answering, image captioning, and multimodal sentiment recognition. The field gained its modern form with CLIP (Radford et al., 2021) and has since advanced through architectures such as BLIP-2 (Li et al., 2023) that bridge frozen image encoders and large language models.
