In a collaborative effort with S-Lab at Nanyang Technological University, SenseTime Technology has officially unveiled and made open-source a cutting-edge multimodal model architecture known as NEO. This innovative architecture is set to serve as the cornerstone for the next generation of SenseNova's multimodal models, embodying a native unified design ethos. Leveraging pivotal technologies such as native primitives, positional encoding, and hybrid attention mechanisms, NEO efficiently integrates images and text within a singular Transformer framework, thereby redefining the limits of efficiency in multimodal model architectures.
