Pretraining Dataset

The pretraining dataset used in this release is a subset of CC-3M dataset, filtered with a more balanced concept coverage distribution. Please see here for a detailed description on the dataset structure and how to download the images.

If you already have CC-3M dataset on your disk, the image names follow this format: GCC_train_000000000.jpg. You may edit the image field correspondingly if necessary.

Data	Chat File	Meta Data	Size
CC-3M Concept-balanced 595K	chat.json	metadata.json	211 MB
LAION/CC/SBU BLIP-Caption Concept-balanced 558K	blip_laion_cc_sbu_558k.json	metadata.json	181 MB

Important notice: Upon the request from the community, as ~15% images of the original CC-3M dataset are no longer accessible, we upload images.zip for better reproducing our work in research community. It must not be used for any other purposes. The use of these images must comply with the CC-3M license. This may be taken down at any time when requested by the original CC-3M dataset owner or owners of the referenced images.

GPT-4 Prompts

We provide our prompts and few-shot samples for GPT-4 queries, to better facilitate research in this domain. Please check out the prompts folder for three kinds of questions: conversation, detail description, and complex reasoning.

They are organized in a format of system_message.txt for system message, pairs of abc_caps.txt for few-shot sample user input, and abc_conv.txt for few-shot sample reference output.

Note that you may find them in different format. For example, conversation is in jsonl, and detail description is answer-only. The selected format in our preliminary experiments work slightly better than a limited set of alternatives that we tried: jsonl, more natural format, answer-only. If interested, you may try other variants or conduct more careful study in this. Contributions are welcomed!

LLaVA Weights

We release LLaVA weights as delta weights to comply with the LLaMA model license. You can add our delta to the original LLaMA weights to obtain the LLaVA weights.

Instructions:

1. Get the original LLaMA weights in the huggingface format by following the instructions here.
2. Use the following scripts to get LLaVA weights by applying our delta (13b-v0, 7b-v0, lightning-7B-v1-1). It will automatically download delta weights from our Hugging Face account.

LLaVA-13B

This conversion command needs around 60 GB of CPU RAM.

python3 -m llava.model.apply_delta \
    --base /path/to/llama-13b \
    --target /output/path/to/LLaVA-13B-v0 \
    --delta liuhaotian/LLaVA-13b-delta-v0

LLaVA-7B

This conversion command needs around 30 GB of CPU RAM.

python3 -m llava.model.apply_delta \
    --base /path/to/llama-7b \
    --target /output/path/to/LLaVA-7B-v0 \
    --delta liuhaotian/LLaVA-7b-delta-v0

LLaVA pretrained projector weights

The initial release is pretrained on LLaVA-filtered CC3M 595K with 1 epoch. The pretrained weights are released here.

You may perform instruction tuning on our pretrained checkpoints, by using our visual instruction tuning data following the instructions here.

Serving

Web UI

Launch a controller

python -m llava.serve.controller --host 0.0.0.0 --port 10000

Launch a model worker

python -m llava.serve.model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 --controller http://localhost:10000 --port 40000 --worker http://localhost:40000 --model-path ./checkpoints/LLaVA-13B-v0 --multi-modal

Wait until the process finishes loading the model and you see "Uvicorn running on ...".

Launch a model worker (Multiple GPUs, when GPU VRAM <= 24GB)

If your the VRAM of your GPU is less than 24GB (e.g., RTX 3090, RTX 4090, etc.), you may try running it with multiple GPUs.

python -m llava.serve.model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 --controller http://localhost:10000 --port 40000 --worker http://localhost:40000 --model-path ./checkpoints/LLaVA-13B-v0 --multi-modal --num-gpus 2

Wait until the process finishes loading the model and you see "Uvicorn running on ...".

Launch a gradio web server.

python -m llava.serve.gradio_web_server --controller http://localhost:10000

You can open your browser and chat with a model now.

CLI Inference

A starting script for inference with LLaVA without the need of Gradio interface. The current implementation only supports for a single-turn Q-A session, and the interactive CLI is WIP. This also serves as an example for users to build customized inference scripts.

python -m llava.eval.run_llava \
    --model-name /path/to/LLaVA-13B-v0 \
    --image-file "https://llava-vl.github.io/static/images/view.jpg" \
    --query "What are the things I should be cautious about when I visit here?"

Example output (varies in different runs):

When visiting this picturesque location with a serene lake and a wooden pier extending over the water, one should be cautious about various safety aspects. Some important considerations include:

1. Ensuring that the pier is structurally sound andstable, as old or weakened pier structures might not support the weight of visitors.
2. Being aware of the water depth around the pier and lake, as sudden drop-offs or strong currents may pose a risk to swimmers, boaters, or those who venture too close to the edge.
3. Staying vigilant about the presence of wildlife in the area, such as slippery, stealthy fish or other animals that might cause harm or inconvenience.
4. Maintaining a safe distance from the water's edge, particularly for children, elderly individuals, or those who are not strong swimmers.
5. Following any posted signs or guidelines related to safety and the use of the pier and surrounding areas.

By considering these safety precautions, visitors can enjoy the natural beauty of the location while minimizing risks and ensuring a safe and pleasant experience.

Fine-tuning

Data

The current version of LLaVA is fine-tuned from a Vicuna-13B model. We use approximately 600K filtered CC3M in feature alignment pretraining and 150K GPT-generated multimodal instruction-following data in finetuning. For detailed description of the data generation pipeline, please refer see our paper.

We are working on a more capable model that is pretrained with the data at a larger scale. Stay tuned!

We release all three types of multimodal instruction-following data. The use of these data is subject to OpenAI TOS.

Code and Hyperparameters

We fine-tune the model using the code from FastChat. We use a similar set of hyperparameters as Vicuna in finetuning. Both hyperparameters used in pretraining and finetuning are provided below.

1. Pretraining

Hyperparameter	Global Batch Size	Learning rate	Epochs	Max length	Weight decay
LLaVA-13B	128	2e-3	1	2048	0

2. Finetuning

Hyperparameter	Global Batch Size	Learning rate	Epochs	Max length	Weight decay
LLaVA-13B	32	2e-5	3	2048	0

Fine-tuning with Local GPUs

LLaVA is trained on 8 A100 GPUs with 80GB memory with the following code. To train on fewer GPUs, you can reduce the per_device_train_batch_size and increase the gradient_accumulation_steps accordingly to keep the global batch size the same.

1. Pretraining

Pretrain: LLaVA-13B, 8x A100 (80G). Time: ~4 hours.

torchrun --nnodes=1 --nproc_per_node=8 --master_port=25001 \
    llava/train/train_mem.py \

Experimental: use FSDP to save memory in pretraining

Learn more

Currently, PyTorch and Huggingface does not yet have stable/native support for FSDP on parameter efficient tuning (part of the parameters are frozen). However, the feature is being developed in PyTorch nightly and shall be shipped in the next release. We provide an experimental script to enable FSDP in pretraining. To use it, please create a new enviroment (to be safe), install PyTorch nightly (MUST), and LLaVA package following the instructions below.

1. Prepare environment

LLaVA-MPT-7b

Thanks to LLaVA-Lightning, we are able to train a checkpoint based on MPT-7b-Chat on 8x A100 GPUs in just 3 hours, including both pretraining and finetuning.

NOTE: This is a research preview of the LLaVA-Lightning based on MPT-7B-chat checkpoint. The usage of the model should comply with MPT-7B-chat license and agreements.

NOTE: Unlike other LLaVA models, this model should be used directly without delta weights conversion!

NOTE: You need to upgrade to our latest code base to use LLaVA-MPT-7b!

1. Usage

You do not need to download our checkpoint, it will directly load from our Hugging Face model: liuhaotian/LLaVA-Lightning-MPT-7B-preview.

python -m llava.serve.controller --host 0.0.0.0 --port 10000
python -m llava.serve.model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 --controller http://localhost:10000 --port 40000 --worker http://localhost:40000 --model-path liuhaotian/LLaVA-Lightning-MPT-7B-preview
python -m llava.serve.gradio_web_server --controller http://localhost:10000

2. Training

We use the same set of training dataset, and the hyperparameters as other Lightning checkpoints.

bash ./scripts/train_lightning_mpt.sh

Fine-tuning on ScienceQA
