Abstract
The Contrastive Olfaction-Language-Image Pre-training 2 (COLIP-2) model is a multimodal embeddings space that places olfaction as a first-class citizen among vision and language. Molecular structure, gas-sensor readings, odor-descriptor language, and images are all trained into a single shared representation space, so that a robot can localize a detected aroma to objects in a scene probabilistically. No ImageNet-scale datasets of paired image-scent examples exists which warrants the need for their collection. Our intent with the release of COLIP-2 is to demonstrate the limit of what can be built for robotics with open-sourced olfactory data in order to ground the argument for why new methodologies and datasets are necessary in order to enable advanced olfactory-oriented perception capabilities. We enumerate results from internal testing of the COLIP-2 architecture and make necessary optimizations to run the model at the edge for real-time robotics applications. While developed with robotics in mind, the design of COLIP-2 has been influenced by experts across many disciplines of science in academia and industry, and we hope that the model can be useful in any multimodal domain requiring olfactory intelligence.
