🏷️ Tag2Text: Guiding Vision-Language Model via Image Tagging

Official PyTorch Implementation of the Tag2Text, an efficient and controllable vision-language model with tagging guidance. Code is available now!

Welcome to try out Tag2Text Web demo🤗! Both Tagging and Captioning are included.

Tag2Text now is combine with Grounded-SAM, which can automatically recognize, detect, and segment for an image! Tag2Text showcases powerful image recognition capabilities:

🔥 News

2023/04/20: We marry Tag2Text with with Grounded-SAM to provide powerful image recognition capabilities!
2023/04/10: Code and checkpoint is available Now!
2023/03/14: Tag2Text web demo 🤗 is available on Hugging Face Space!

💡 Highlight

Tagging. Without manual annotations, Tag2Text achieves superior image tag recognition ability of 3,429 commonly human-used categories.
Efficient. Tagging guidance effectively enhances the performance of vision-language models on both generation-based and alignment-based tasks.
Controllable. Tag2Text permits users to input desired tags, providing the flexibility in composing corresponding texts based on the input tags.
