What is Janus-Pro-1B?

Janus-Pro-1B is an innovative autoregressive framework that unifies multimodal understanding and generation in a single architecture. The model's unique approach lies in its decoupled visual encoding pathways while maintaining a unified transformer architecture for processing. This design choice effectively resolves conflicts between visual encoding roles in understanding and generation tasks.

Implementation Details

The model is built upon the DeepSeek-LLM-1.5b-base architecture and implements two distinct visual processing pathways. For multimodal understanding, it employs SigLIP-L as the vision encoder, supporting 384x384 image inputs. The image generation component utilizes a specialized tokenizer with a 16x downsample rate.
