概要	Multilingual image classification trains visual models to recognise and label images when class names, supervision signals, or evaluation benchmarks span multiple languages. Enabled by multilingual vision-language models such as CLIP, it allows a single model to classify images using prompts or labels in any supported language, facilitating cross-cultural and cross-lingual deployment of computer vision systems.	Multilingual Vision Transformer (Multilingual ViT) extends the Vision Transformer architecture to operate across multiple languages, enabling image understanding and image-text reasoning in multilingual or cross-lingual settings. It combines patch-based image encoding with multilingual text representations, allowing a single model to serve diverse linguistic communities for tasks such as image captioning, visual question answering, and cross-lingual image retrieval.
