LLMs Meet Multimodal Generation and Editing: An Overview
This project is a comprehensive survey and repository focused on exploring the role of Large Language Models (LLMs) in multimodal generation and editing. Multimodal encompasses various forms such as visual content (images, videos, and 3D graphics) and audio material (sound, speech, and music). The aim of the project is to curate an extensive list of research and advancements where LLMs intersect with multimodal content creation, providing a valuable resource for researchers and enthusiasts alike.
What Does the Repository Include?
The repository is divided into various sections that explore different aspects of multimodal generation and editing:
-
Multimodal Generation: This section covers the creation of different forms of media using LLMs, with dedicated categories for image, video, and 3D generation as well as audio production.
-
Multimodal Editing: Here, the focus is on editing capabilities in various modalities, again using the power of LLMs. This includes the manipulation and enhancement of images, videos, 3D models, and audio clips.
-
Multimodal Agents and Understanding: Investigates how LLMs can be utilized to create intelligent agents capable of understanding and interpreting content across multiple modalities. This section extends into discussions around safety, ethical considerations, and functional applications of LLMs in complex multimodal environments.
