The field of multimodal analysis is rapidly evolving, with a focus on developing innovative methods for understanding and detecting hate speech in online content. Research is shifting towards leveraging large vision-language models to improve multimodal understanding, with applications in meme analysis and hate detection. Notable papers include CAMU, which introduces a novel framework for multimodal hate detection, and MemeBLIP2, which presents a lightweight multimodal system for detecting harmful memes. Additionally, papers such as Detecting and Mitigating Hateful Content in Multimodal Memes with Vision-Language Models propose effective methods for transforming hateful content in memes, promoting safer online environments.
