ViTamin: Designing Scalable Vision Models in the Vision-language Era

🔥 Officially supported by timm and OpenCLIP. Thanks @rwightman!

One line of code to call ViTamin:

model = timm.create_model('vitamin_xlarge_384')

ViTamin-XL, with only 436M parameters and trained on the public DataComp-1B dataset, achieves an impressive 82.9% zero-shot ImageNet accuracy.

ViTamin-L sets a new SOTA across seven benchmarks for open-vocabulary segmentation, and also push forward the capabilities of large multi-modal models (e.g., LLaVA) significantly.

🤗 The HuggingFace collection of ViTamin model cards has been released! Check out the model cards!

Get Started

It currently includes code and models for the following tasks:

ViTamin Pre-training: See ./ViTamin/README.md for a quick start, which includes CLIP pre-training / fine-tuning pipelines and zero-shot evaluation pipelines.

Open-vocabulary Detection and Segmentation: See ViTamin for Open-vocab Detection and ViTamin for Open-vocab Segmentation.

Large Multi-Modal Models: See ViTamin for Large Multi-Modal Models.

We also support ViTamin with Hugging Face model jienengchen/ViTamin-XL-384px.

import torch
import open_clip
from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoModel, CLIPImageProcessor
device = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"

model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(
    'jienengchen/ViTamin-XL-384px',
    trust_remote_code=True).to(device).eval()

image = Image.open('./image.png').convert('RGB')
image_processor = CLIPImageProcessor.from_pretrained('jienengchen/ViTamin-XL-384px')

pixel_values = image_processor(images=image, return_tensors='pt').pixel_values
pixel_values = pixel_values.to(torch.bfloat16).cuda()

tokenizer = open_clip.get_tokenizer('hf-hub:laion/CLIP-ViT-L-14-DataComp.XL-s13B-b90K')
text = tokenizer(["a photo of vitamin", "a dog", "a cat"]).to(device)

with torch.no_grad(), torch.cuda.amp.autocast():
    image_features, text_features, logit_scale = model(pixel_values, text)
    text_probs = (100.0 * image_features @ text_features.to(torch.float).T).softmax(dim=-1)

print("Label probs:", text_probs) 

Main Results with CLIP Pre-training on DataComp-1B

We will provide 61 trained VLMs (48 benchmarked + 13 best performing) in Hugging Face for community use. Stay tuned!
