Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash is a natively multimodal agentic model designed for real‑world multimodal productivity, offering enhanced multimodal understanding, reasoning, and long‑horizon agentic task performance. It builds on a sparse mixture‑of‑experts architecture, extends its context window to one million tokens, and supports long‑context multimodal reasoning and planning. The release includes Qwen-MM-Plugins for native audio and video support and Qwen-Live-Harness for building responsive, real‑time multimodal agents, with extensive evaluations confirming strong performance across multimodal tasks.
The paper surveys how large multimodal models (LMMs) enhance agentic frameworks that combine perception, memory, reasoning, planning, and action. It examines the integration of multiple modalities—text, images, audio, and video—through delegated, late‑fusion, and early‑fusion architectures, and maps these designs to agent capabilities. The survey also reviews multimodal agentic systems in robotics, web navigation, multimedia content creation, and video understanding, evaluating performance, efficiency, and scalability trade‑offs.
