Researchers have explored the potential of foundation models for reconstructing missing modalities, such as generating images from text or vice versa. Their comprehensive evaluation of 42 model variants revealed that current models struggle with detailed semantic extraction and robust validation of generated content. To address these limitations, the team developed an agentic framework that employs dynamic, modality-aware mining strategies and a self-refinement mechanism to improve generation quality, showing significant reductions in FID and MER scores.
