Multimodal models

1) Why multimodality iGaming

• reduce fraud (KYC + liveness, screen-to-screen, picture substitution);
• accelerate moderation and brand safety creatives/videos by jurisdiction;
• understand the context of streams and references to providers/games;
• find the roots of UX problems (video + log events + comments);
• give support agents "rich" answers (text + screen/video/links);
• improve RG processes (complaint text + visual frustration pattern + session history).

2) Architectures and patterns

2. 1 CLIP-like (dual encoders, contrastive)

Two encoders (text/visual) are trained on ITC (image-text contrastive). Quick search/match: logos, igra↔kreativ, strim↔provayder.

2. 2 Encoder→Decoder / VLM

Visual encoder + LLM decoder for "describing" a picture/video, answering questions on UI/screenshot, explaining KYC solutions. Supports Grounding (bbox/masks) and Toolformer-style tool invocation.

2. 3 Perceiver/Perceiver IO/Flamingo-like

Long sequences and mixed modalities (frames + text + table features). Useful for streams and sequential KYC frames.

2. 4 LLM-as-orchestrator (Router/Agent)

Light specialized models in the critical path (map/face detection, OCR, ASR) + LLM, which connects the results, causes rules, writes human-readable reasons.

2. 5 Fusion-Late / Fusion-Early / Co-attention

Late merger - reliable and cheap; earlier - more powerful, but more expensive. For the product path: more often late + co-attention (accuracy/cost balance).

3) Data and markup

Synchronization: frames/subtitles/game events/chats → time alignment (ASR/diarization for audio).
PII/biometrics: edit faces/documents (boxes/masks), tokenize identifiers; DSAR compatibility.
Domain dictionaries: PSP/providers/games, RG/bonus terms, local payments (Papara/Mefete/PIX).
Synthetics: documents/selfies with light/angle variations; creatives with different logos/CTA; "re-removal" of the screen.
Active learning: Model flags uncertain/borderline cases; HITL circuit.
Balance: rare classes (spoof, forbidden symbol, 18 +) - at least the bulk.

4) Alignment and training

ITC (InfoNCE): tekst↔izobrazheniye/kadr (many negatives, temperature softmax).
ITM (Image-Text Matching): "match/no" binary.
Instruction tuning: "UI question/document → answer + justification" dialogues.
Grounding: supervision on bbox/masks for "that's where the bug is" links.

Causal/Tool use: templates "saw → called OCR/NER → checked PSP limits."

RLHF/RLAIF: preferences of reviewers for "protective" scenarios (advertising/18 +/RG).

5) Privacy, security, ethics

Biometrics-by-design: on-device pre-validation, edge-inference, embedding encryption, shelf life.
Zero-PII in the logs: no raw frames, no full text of the document; tokens and case references.
DSAR/Legal Hold: crypto erasure, immutable decision logs (WORM).
Fairness/Bias: lighting/skin tone/camera/language → regular reports and parity tolerances.
Jurisdictions: 18 + filters, "responsible advertising," storage and keys in the license region.

6) Key Scenarios (iGaming)

1. KYC + Liveness (video + text)

OCR of document fields, comparison with requisition (tabular).
Selfies/shots → embeddings/spoof speed; explanation of "why deny" with reference to the rule region.

2. Creative moderation/video

Detection of prohibited texts/logos/symbols, age plates, rates/misleading messages.
Generating a "political" report for marketing: what to fix and why.

3. Stream analytics (video + chat)

Logo/game/events (big win, discount), chat tone, toxicity.
Attribution of promotions to the provider, alignment by timecodes.

4. Support/UX (screenshots + text)

Q&A on the screen: "Where is the output button? , ""Why KYC error?" - with illumination of UI area.

5. RG/Antifraud

Video cards "screen re-capture," comparison with the text of complaints and session signals; HITL escalation.

7) Metrics and benchmarks

Online SLO: success rate ≥ 99. 5%, p95 ≤ 300-500 ms (depends on the route), drift alerts.

8) Operation and cost (MLOps)

Registry: model/data/augmentation versions; policy "where applicable."

Releases: shadow/canary/blue-green; automatic rollback via FPR/latency/drift.
Observability: latency p50/95/99, error rate, GPU/CPU util, PSI drift (scenes/languages).
Cost control: distillation/quantization (FP16/INT8), frame sampling, embedding cache, light/heavy routing.
HITL: controversial queue; active training and replenishment of the golden set.
Geo/tenant isolation: different keys, quotas, route policies.

9. 5 Prompt template (UI Q&A, security)

Ты ассистент по UI. На входе: описание экрана (OCR/объекты) и вопрос.
1) Отвечай только тем, что видно на экране или в правилах бренда.
2) Если данных не хватает — скажи «недостаточно информации» и предложи шаг.
3) Никогда не проси пользователя присылать документы в чат.
Верни: ответ, краткое обоснование, при наличии — координаты области.

10) Implementation Roadmap

0-30 days (MVP)

1. CLIP search for logos/games + simple moderation of creatives (text/18 +).
2. UI Q&A in screenshots (highlighting zonas), integration into support.
3. PII-revision and tokenization pipeline; observability latency/success.

30-90 days

1. Video streaming module: logo/highlights + chat binding (ASR/tone).
2. KYC assistant: explanations of decisions (grounding per document/selfie), hitl queue.
3. Canary releases, drift alerts (scenes/languages), bias/fairness reports.

3-6 months

1. Instructional additional training on domain tasks (moderation/UX/PSP rules).
2. Confidential inference (TEE) in payment flows/VIP.
3. Distillation/quantization, cache of embeddings; cost budget per request.
4. Auto-generation of golden cases from controversial and post-mortems.

11) Anti-patterns

Raw frames/audio in logs and long-term storage for no reason.
"One model for everything" on the critical payment path - without a router and fallback.
Lack of grounding/explainability in moderation: disputes with marketing and regulators.
Ignore bias/lighting/cameras - local KYC dips.
No drift-alerts: degradation is "spreading" across the regions.
Models without HITL: no improvement on edge cases.

Result

Multimodal models turn disparate channels - text, image, video, sound, and events - into a coherent, explainable, and secure stream of solutions. In iGaming, this means faster and more honest KYC, less fraud, safe creatives, transparent attribution of providers on streams and smart support responses - with strict adherence to privacy, budgets and regulations.
