Model overview
llava-v1.6-mistral-7b is a variant of the LLaVA (Large Language and Vision Assistant) model, developed by Mistral AI and maintained by yorickvp. LLaVA aims to build large language and vision models with GPT-4 level capabilities through visual instruction tuning. The llava-v1.6-mistral-7b model is a 7-billion parameter version of the LLaVA architecture, using the Mistral-7B as its base model.
Similar models include the llava-v1.6-34b, llava-v1.6-vicuna-7b, llava-v1.6-vicuna-13b, and llava-13b, all of which are variants of the LLaVA model with different base architectures and model sizes. The mistral-7b-v0.1 is a separate 7-billion parameter language model developed by Mistral AI.
Model inputs and outputs
The llava-v1.6-mistral-7b model can process text prompts and images as inputs, and generate text responses. The text prompts can include instructions or questions related to the input image, and the model will attempt to generate a relevant and coherent response.
Inputs
- Image: An image file provided as a URL.
- Prompt: A text prompt that includes instructions or a question related to the input image.
- History: A list of previous messages in a conversation, alternating between user inputs and model responses, with the image specified in the appropriate message.
- Temperature: A value between 0 and 1 that controls the randomness of the model's text generation, with lower values producing more deterministic outputs.
- Top P: A value between 0 and 1 that controls how many of the most likely tokens are considered during text generation, with lower values ignoring less likely tokens.
- Max Tokens: The maximum number of tokens (words) the model should generate in its response.
Outputs
- Text: The model's generated response to the input prompt and image.
Capabilities
The llava-v1.6-mistral-7b model is capable of understanding and interpreting visual information in the context of textual prompts, and generating relevant and coherent responses. It can be used for a variety of multimodal tasks, such as image captioning, visual question answering, and image-guided text generation.
What can I use it for?
The llava-v1.6-mistral-7b model can be a powerful tool for building multimodal applications that combine language and vision, such as:
- Interactive image-based chatbots that can answer questions and provide information about the contents of an image
- Intelligent image-to-text generation systems that can generate detailed captions or stories based on visual inputs
- Visual assistance tools that can help users understand and interact with images and visual content
- Multimodal educational or training applications that leverage visual and textual information to teach or explain concepts
Things to try
With the llava-v1.6-mistral-7b model, you can experiment with a variety of prompts and image inputs to see the model's capabilities in action. Try providing the model with images of different subjects and scenes, and see how it responds to prompts related to the visual content. You can also explore the model's ability to follow instructions and perform tasks by including specific commands in the text prompt.
