Ming-Omni is a unified multimodal model capable of processing images, text, audio, and video efficiently.
It demonstrates proficiency in speech and image generation using dedicated encoders and an MoE architecture named Ling.
The model uses modality-specific routers to process tokens from different modalities within a unified framework.
Ming-Omni can handle diverse tasks without needing separate models, task-specific fine-tuning, or structural redesign.
It supports audio and image generation, featuring an advanced audio decoder for natural speech generation and Ming-Lite-Uni for high-quality image generation.
The model can engage in tasks like context-aware chatting, text-to-speech conversion, and versatile image editing.
Experimental results demonstrate that Ming-Omni offers a powerful solution for unified perception and generation across all modalities.
Ming-Omni is the first open-source model known to match GPT-4o in modality support.
All code and model weights of Ming-Omni have been released to encourage further research and development in the community.
