What is bakLlava-v1-hf?
BakLlava-v1-hf is a sophisticated multimodal AI model that combines Mistral-7B's language capabilities with the LLaVA 1.5 architecture for vision-language understanding. This innovative combination outperforms larger models like Llama 2 13B on several benchmarks, making it a more efficient solution for multimodal tasks.
Implementation Details
The model supports multi-image and multi-prompt generation, implemented through the transformers library (requires version ≥4.35.3). It can be deployed using either a simple pipeline approach or pure transformers implementation, with support for both float16 precision and 4-bit quantization.
- Supports multiple images in single prompt
- Implements proper prompt templating (USER: xxx\nASSISTANT:)
