MiniCPM-V 2.0

Click to view more details of MiniCPM-V 2.0

MiniCPM-V 2.0 is an efficient version with promising performance for deployment. The model is built based on SigLip-400M and MiniCPM-2.4B, connected by a perceiver resampler. Our latest version, MiniCPM-V 2.0 has several notable features.

  • ๐Ÿ”ฅ State-of-the-art Performance.

    MiniCPM-V 2.0 achieves state-of-the-art performance on multiple benchmarks (including OCRBench, TextVQA, MME, MMB, MathVista, etc) among models under 7B parameters. It even outperforms strong Qwen-VL-Chat 9.6B, CogVLM-Chat 17.4B, and Yi-VL 34B on OpenCompass, a comprehensive evaluation over 11 popular benchmarks. Notably, MiniCPM-V 2.0 shows strong OCR capability, achieving comparable performance to Gemini Pro in scene-text understanding, and state-of-the-art performance on OCRBench among open-source models.

  • ๐Ÿ† Trustworthy Behavior.

    LMMs are known for suffering from hallucination, often generating text not factually grounded in images. MiniCPM-V 2.0 is the first end-side LMM aligned via multimodal RLHF for trustworthy behavior (using the recent RLHF-V [CVPRโ€™24] series technique). This allows the model to match GPT-4V in preventing hallucinations on Object HalBench.

  • ๐ŸŒŸ High-Resolution Images at Any Aspect Raito.

    MiniCPM-V 2.0 can accept 1.8 million pixels (e.g., 1344x1344) images at any aspect ratio. This enables better perception of fine-grained visual information such as small objects and optical characters, which is achieved via a recent technique from LLaVA-UHD.

  • โšก๏ธ High Efficiency.

    MiniCPM-V 2.0 can be efficiently deployed on most GPU cards and personal computers, and even on end devices such as mobile phones. For visual encoding, we compress the image representations into much fewer tokens via a perceiver resampler. This allows MiniCPM-V 2.0 to operate with favorable memory cost and speed during inference even when dealing with high-resolution images.

  • ๐Ÿ™Œ Bilingual Support.

    MiniCPM-V 2.0 supports strong bilingual multimodal capabilities in both English and Chinese. This is enabled by generalizing multimodal capabilities across languages, a technique from VisCPM [ICLRโ€™24].

Multi-turn Conversation

Please refer to the following codes to run.

import torch
from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer

torch.manual_seed(0)

model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('openbmb/MiniCPM-V-2_6', trust_remote_code=True,
    attn_implementation='sdpa', torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16) # sdpa or flash_attention_2, no eager
model = model.eval().cuda()
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('openbmb/MiniCPM-V-2_6', trust_remote_code=True)

image = Image.open('./assets/airplane.jpeg').convert('RGB')

# First round chat 
question = "Tell me the model of this aircraft."
msgs = [{'role': 'user', 'content': [image, question]}]

answer = model.chat(
    image=None,
    msgs=msgs,
    tokenizer=tokenizer
)
print(answer)

# Second round chat 
# pass history context of multi-turn conversation
msgs.append({"role": "assistant", "content": [answer]})
msgs.append({"role": "user", "content": ["Introduce something about Airbus A380."]})

answer = model.chat(
    image=None,
    msgs=msgs,
    tokenizer=tokenizer
)
print(answer)

You will get the following output:

"The aircraft in the image is an Airbus A380, which can be identified by its large size, double-deck structure, and the distinctive shape of its wings and engines. The A380 is a wide-body aircraft known for being the world's largest passenger airliner, designed for long-haul flights. It has four engines, which are characteristic of large commercial aircraft. The registration number on the aircraft can also provide specific information about the model if looked up in an aviation database."

"The Airbus A380 is a double-deck, wide-body, four-engine jet airliner made by Airbus. It is the world's largest passenger airliner and is known for its long-haul capabilities. The aircraft was developed to improve efficiency and comfort for passengers traveling over long distances. It has two full-length passenger decks, which can accommodate more passengers than a typical single-aisle airplane. The A380 has been operated by airlines such as Lufthansa, Singapore Airlines, and Emirates, among others. It is widely recognized for its unique design and significant impact on the aviation industry."
