Beyond LLaVA-HD: Diving into High-Resolution Large Multimodal Models

[📖 arXiv Paper] [📊 Dataset][🏆 Models]

🔥 Update

• [10/26]🔥SliME-8B achieves better high-resolution understanding performance on MME-RealWorld compared to Mini-Gemini and LLaVA-Next.
• [09/26]🔥SliME is supported by VLMEvalKit. Feel free to use it without hesitation!
• [07/16]🔥The SliME strategy demonstrates exceptional versatility, extending seamlessly to video analysis (See Slime_video.md). Remarkably, even though the model has never been specifically trained on video data, it is capable of processing up to 8 frames. In the Video-MME benchmark, the model surpasses numerous 7B/8B baselines that have undergone training on video datasets.
• [06/11]🔥SliME is coming! We release the paper, code, models, and data for SliME!
• [06/11]🔥SliME-70B will be released soon.

📈 Train

Click to see the detail model structure

SliME training consists of three stages: (1) training the global projector and attention adapter specifically; (2) training the local compression layer; and (3) training the full model.

SliME is trained on 8 A100 GPUs with 80GB memory. To train on fewer GPUs, you can reduce the per_device_train_batch_size and increase the gradient_accumulation_steps accordingly. Always keep the global batch size the same: per_device_train_batch_size x gradient_accumulation_steps x num_gpus.

Please make sure you download and organize the data following Preparation before training.

If you want to train and finetune SliME, please run the following command for SliME-7B with image size 336:

bash scripts/vicuna/vicuna_7b_pt.sh
bash scripts/vicuna/vicuna_7b_sft.sh

or for SliME-8B with image size 336:

bash scripts/llama/llama3_8b_pt.sh
bash scripts/llama/llama3_8b_sft.sh

Because we reuse the pre-trained projecter weights from the SliME-7B, you can directly use the sft commands stage-3 instruction tuning by changing the PROJECTOR_DIR:

bash scripts/llama/llama3_8b_sft.sh

Please find more training scripts of in scripts/.

📈 Evaluation

We perform evaluation on several image-based benchmarks. Please see Evaluation for the detailes.

If you want to evaluate the model on image-based benchmarks, please use the scripts in scripts/MODEL_PATH/eval. For example, run the following command for TextVQA evaluation with SliME-7B:

bash scripts/llama/eval/textvqa.sh

Please find more evaluation scripts in scripts/MODEL_PATH.

The evaluation code and needed files can be found here.
