LLaVA Weights

Please check out our Model Zoo for all public LLaVA checkpoints, and the instructions of how to use the weights.

Demo

To run our demo, you need to prepare LLaVA checkpoints locally. Please follow the instructions here to download the checkpoints.

Gradio Web UI

To launch a Gradio demo locally, please run the following commands one by one. If you plan to launch multiple model workers to compare between different checkpoints, you only need to launch the controller and the web server ONCE.

Launch a controller

python -m llava.serve.controller --host 0.0.0.0 --port 10000

Launch a gradio web server.

python -m llava.serve.gradio_web_server --controller http://localhost:10000 --model-list-mode reload

You just launched the Gradio web interface. Now, you can open the web interface with the URL printed on the screen. You may notice that there is no model in the model list. Do not worry, as we have not launched any model worker yet. It will be automatically updated when you launch a model worker.

Launch a model worker

This is the actual worker that performs the inference on the GPU. Each worker is responsible for a single model specified in --model-path.

python -m llava.serve.model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 --controller http://localhost:10000 --port 40000 --worker http://localhost:40000 --model-path liuhaotian/llava-v1.5-13b

Wait until the process finishes loading the model and you see "Uvicorn running on ...". Now, refresh your Gradio web UI, and you will see the model you just launched in the model list.

You can launch as many workers as you want, and compare between different model checkpoints in the same Gradio interface. Please keep the --controller the same, and modify the --port and --worker to a different port number for each worker.

python -m llava.serve.model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 --controller http://localhost:10000 --port <different from 40000, say 40001> --worker http://localhost:<change accordingly, i.e. 40001> --model-path <ckpt2>

Launch a model worker (Multiple GPUs, when GPU VRAM <= 24GB)

If the VRAM of your GPU is less than 24GB (e.g., RTX 3090, RTX 4090, etc.), you may try running it with multiple GPUs. Our latest code base will automatically try to use multiple GPUs if you have more than one GPU. You can specify which GPUs to use with CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES. Below is an example of running with the first two GPUs.

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1 python -m llava.serve.model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 --controller http://localhost:10000 --port 40000 --worker http://localhost:40000 --model-path liuhaotian/llava-v1.5-13b

Launch a model worker (4-bit, 8-bit inference, quantized)

You can launch the model worker with quantized bits (4-bit, 8-bit), which allows you to run the inference with reduced GPU memory footprint, potentially allowing you to run on a GPU with as few as 12GB VRAM. Note that inference with quantized bits may not be as accurate as the full-precision model. Simply append --load-4bit or --load-8bit to the model worker command that you are executing. Below is an example of running with 4-bit quantization.

python -m llava.serve.model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 --controller http://localhost:10000 --port 40000 --worker http://localhost:40000 --model-path liuhaotian/llava-v1.5-13b --load-4bit

Launch a model worker (LoRA weights, unmerged)

You can launch the model worker with LoRA weights, without merging them with the base checkpoint, to save disk space. There will be additional loading time, while the inference speed is the same as the merged checkpoints. Unmerged LoRA checkpoints do not have lora-merge in the model name, and are usually much smaller (less than 1GB) than the merged checkpoints (13G for 7B, and 25G for 13B).

To load unmerged LoRA weights, you simply need to pass an additional argument --model-base, which is the base LLM that is used to train the LoRA weights. You can check the base LLM of each LoRA weights in the model zoo.

python -m llava.serve.model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 --controller http://localhost:10000 --port 40000 --worker http://localhost:40000 --model-path liuhaotian/llava-v1-0719-336px-lora-vicuna-13b-v1.3 --model-base lmsys/vicuna-13b-v1.3

CLI Inference

Chat about images using LLaVA without the need of Gradio interface. It also supports multiple GPUs, 4-bit and 8-bit quantized inference. With 4-bit quantization, for our LLaVA-1.5-7B, it uses less than 8GB VRAM on a single GPU.

python -m llava.serve.cli \
    --model-path liuhaotian/llava-v1.5-7b \
    --image-file "https://llava-vl.github.io/static/images/view.jpg" \
    --load-4bit

Train

LLaVA training consists of two stages: (1) feature alignment stage: use approximately 600K filtered CC3M to connect a frozen pretrained vision encoder to a frozen LLM; (2) visual instruction tuning stage: use 150K GPT-generated multimodal instruction-following to teach the model to follow multimodal instructions.

LLaVA is trained on 8 A100 GPUs with 80GB memory. To train on fewer GPUs, you can reduce the per_device_train_batch_size and increase the gradient_accumulation_steps accordingly. Always keep the global batch size the same: per_device_train_batch_size x gradient_accumulation_steps x num_gpus.

Hyperparameters

We use a similar set of hyperparameters as Vicuna in finetuning. Both hyperparameters used in pretraining and finetuning are provided below.

  1. Pretraining
Hyperparameter Global Batch Size Learning rate Epochs Max length Weight decay
LLaVA-13B 256 1e-3 1 2048 0
  1. Finetuning
Hyperparameter Global Batch Size Learning rate Epochs Max length Weight decay
LLaVA-13B 128 2e-5 1 2048 0

Prepare Vicuna checkpoints

Before you start, prepare our base model Vicuna, which is an instruction-tuned chatbot. Please download its weights here.

Vicuna has two versions: v0 and v1, the main difference between them is the prompt of format. We support both. To ensure the best performance, you need to specify the correct prompt version corresponding to the weights you download: v0 for v0 weights, and v1 for all Vicuna v1.x models.

Pretrain (feature alignment)

Please download the subset of the CC3M dataset we use in the paper here.

Pretrain takes around 4 hours for LLaVA-13B on 8x A100 (80G). It takes around 2 hours for 7B checkpoints.

We recommend training with DeepSpeed as it can save a lot of GPU RAM. We provide training script with DeepSpeed here.

You may run this with a single A100 GPU with the following code. Please note that the per_device_train_batch_size * gradient_accumulation_steps should be equal to 128 to keep the global batch size the same.

Pretrain: LLaVA-13B, 1x A100 (80G). Time: ~33 hours.

Visual Instruction Tuning

  1. Prepare data

Please download the annotation of our instruction tuning data llava_instruct_158k.json, and download the COCO train2017 images here.

  1. Start training!

You may download our pretrained projectors in Model Zoo. It is not recommended to use legacy projectors, as they may be trained with a different version of the codebase, and if any option is off, the model will not function/train as we expected.

When we initially released our paper, we used a full 3-epoch schedule on the LLaVA-Instruct-158K dataset. The scripts are provided here.

In our later exploration, we introduced LLaVA-Lightning, as we find that a much faster 1-epoch schedule on LLaVA-Instruct-80K can achieve fast convergence and good performance. With LLaVA Lightning, we are able to train, validate, and release LLaVA-LLaMA-2 checkpoints preview on the same day as LLaMA-2 release. If you are interested to learn more about LLaVA Lightning, please continue to the following section.

Lightning

LLaVA-Lightning can be trained on 8x A100 GPUs in just 3 hours, including both pretraining and finetuning. When using spot instances, it costs just ~$40.

For LLaVA Lightning, we create two distilled subset to ensure both a broad concept coverage, and the efficiency in training. Furthermore, we only perform instruction tuning for 1 epoch, in contrast to 3 epochs in the paper. We find such schedule is effective and can achieve fast convergence and good performance.

For pretraining, we create a concept-balanced subset of LAION-CC-SBU. It consists of 558K images. Download data here.

For instruction tuning, we create a subset of LLaVA-Instruct-150K. It consists of 80K image-instruction pairs, consisting of 40K conversation and 40K complex reasoning data, with non-overlapping images. Download llava_instruct_80k.json here.

LLaVA-MPT-7b

Thanks to LLaVA-Lightning, we are able to train a checkpoint based on MPT-7B-Chat on 8x A100 GPUs in just 3 hours, including both pretraining and finetuning.

NOTE: This is a research preview of the LLaVA-Lightning based on MPT-7B-chat checkpoint. The usage of the model should comply with MPT-7B-chat license and agreements.

  1. Usage

You do not need to download our checkpoint, it will directly load from our Hugging Face model: liuhaotian/LLaVA-Lightning-MPT-7B-preview.

python -m llava.serve.controller --host 0.0.0.0 --port 10000
python -m llava.serve.model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 --controller http://localhost:10000 --port 40000 --worker http://localhost:40000 --model-path liuhaotian/LLaVA-Lightning-MPT-7B-preview
python -m llava.serve.gradio_web_server --controller http://localhost:10000
  1. Training

We use the same set of training dataset, and the hyperparameters as other Lightning checkpoints.
