DESCRIPTION:This talk will chart the evolution of vision-language models (
 VLMs) and illustrate how architectural innovations and training paradigms 
 have progressively closed the gap between visual perception and natural‐
 language understanding. I will cover models such as CLIP\, Flamingo and LL
 aVA and discuss each of their design principles\, strengths and weaknesses
 \, and comparative performance across standard benchmarks.
LOCATION:Cambridge University Engineering Department\, CBL Seminar room BE
