😮 Highlights

MoE-LLaVA shows excellent performance in multi-modal learning.

🔥 High performance, but with fewer parameters

• with just 3B sparsely activated parameters, MoE-LLaVA demonstrates performance comparable to the LLaVA-1.5-7B on various visual understanding datasets and even surpasses the LLaVA-1.5-13B in object hallucination benchmarks.

🚀 Simple baseline, learning multi-modal interactions with sparse pathways.

• With the addition of a simple MoE tuning stage, we can complete the training of MoE-LLaVA on 8 A100 GPUs within 1 days.

⚙️ Requirements and Installation

We recommend the requirements as follows.

• Python == 3.10
• Pytorch == 2.0.1
• CUDA Version >= 11.7
• Transformers == 4.37.0
• Tokenizers==0.15.1
• Install required packages:

git clone https://github.com/PKU-YuanGroup/MoE-LLaVA
cd MoE-LLaVA
conda create -n moellava python=3.10 -y
conda activate moellava
pip install --upgrade pip  # enable PEP 660 support
pip install -e .
pip install -e ".[train]"
pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation

# Below are optional. For Qwen model.
git clone https://github.com/Dao-AILab/flash-attention
cd flash-attention && pip install .
# Below are optional. Installing them might be slow.
# pip install csrc/layer_norm
# If the version of flash-attn is higher than 2.1.1, the following is not needed.
# pip install csrc/rotary

Warning

🚨 We find that using flash attention2 makes performance degradation.

🗝️ Training & Validating

The training & validating instruction is in TRAIN.md & EVAL.md.

💡 Customizing your MoE-LLaVA

The instruction is in CUSTOM.md.

😍 Visualization

The instruction is in VISUALIZATION.md.

🤖 API

We open source all codes. If you want to load the model (e.g. LanguageBind/MoE-LLaVA-Phi2-2.7B-4e) on local, you can use the following code snippets.

Using the following command to run the code.

deepspeed --include localhost:0 predict.py

    conv = conv_templates[conv_mode].copy()
    roles = conv.roles
    image_tensor = image_processor.preprocess(Image.open(image).convert('RGB'), return_tensors='pt')['pixel_values'].to(model.device, dtype=torch.float16)

    print(f"{roles[1]}: {inp}")
    inp = DEFAULT_IMAGE_TOKEN + '\n' + inp
    conv.append_message(conv.roles[0], inp)
    conv.append_message(conv.roles[1], None)
    prompt = conv.get_prompt()
    input_ids = tokenizer_image_token(prompt, tokenizer, IMAGE_TOKEN_INDEX, return_tensors='pt').unsqueeze(0).cuda()
    stop_str = conv.sep if conv.sep_style != SeparatorStyle.TWO else conv.sep2
    keywords = [stop_str]
    stopping_criteria = KeywordsStoppingCriteria(keywords, tokenizer, input_ids)

    with torch.inference_mode():
        output_ids = model.generate(
