JavisGPT: AUnified Multi-modal LLM for Sounding-Video Comprehension and Generation

This paper presents JavisGPT, the first unified multimodal large language model (MLLM) for joint audio-video (JAV) comprehension and generation. JavisGPT has a concise encoderLLM-decoder fusion and synchron architecture, y-aware which learnable has a queries SyncFusion to bridge module a pretrained for spatio-temporal JAV-DiT generator audio-video . This design enables temporally coherent video-audio understanding and generation from multimodal instructions. We design an effective three-stage training pipeline consisting of multimodal pretraining, audio-video fine-tuning, and large-scale instruction-tuning, to progressively build multimodal comprehension and generation from existing vision-language models. For instruction tuning, we construct JavisInst-Omni, a high-quality instruction dataset with over 200K GPT and generation -4o-curated scenarios.
