What is Liquid_V1_7B?
Liquid_V1_7B is an innovative multimodal large language model that represents a significant advancement in combining visual and language processing. Unlike traditional MLLMs, it operates using a single large language model without requiring external pretrained visual embeddings like CLIP. The model tokenizes images into discrete codes and learns these alongside text tokens in a shared feature space.
Implementation Details
The model is built on an auto-regressive transformer architecture and is part of a family of models ranging from 0.5B to 32B parameters. This 7B variant is based on GEMMA and has been instruction-tuned for optimal performance.
