Training-Free Multimodal Large Language Model Orchestration

Jiayi Ji, Rongrong Ji, Tat-Seng Chua, Tianyu Xie, Wang Chen, Xiawu Zheng, Yuexiao Ma, Yuhang Wu

A training-free framework uses an off-the-shelf LLM to route and sequence separate modality experts into one unified multimodal system.

The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Across diverse multimodal benchmarks, LLM Orchestration achieves strong performance under standard evaluation constraints while maintaining low orchestration overhead and modular upgradeability, providing a practical alternative to costly joint training for omni-modal systems.

C2weakest assumption

That an off-the-shelf LLM controller can reliably infer user intent and emit correct explicit control tokens for expert selection and sequencing without introducing routing errors that degrade overall performance.

C3one line summary

A training-free orchestration framework integrates off-the-shelf modality experts via an LLM controller, text-centric cross-modal memory, and unified interaction layer to enable multimodal input-output without joint training.
