# Introduction

The **Aquila-VL-2B-CG** model is a vision-language model (VLM) trained based on the [LLava-one-vision](https://llava-vl.github.io/blog/2024-08-05-llava-onevision/) framework. The [Qwen2.5-1.5B-instruct](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct) model is chose as the LLM, while [siglip-so400m-patch14-384](https://huggingface.co/google/siglip-so400m-patch14-384) is utilized as the vision tower.

The model was trained on our self-built Infinity-MM dataset, which contains approximately 40 million image-text pairs. This dataset is a combination of open-source data collected from the internet and synthetic instruction data generated using open-source VLM models.


We have open-sourced [Infinity-MM](https://huggingface.co/datasets/BAAI/Infinity-MM) dataset and related resources. The  Aquila-VL-2B-CG was trained using domestic GPUs, and the model files will be updated in early November 2024. We hope you enjoy using them!

## News 

- `2024/10/25`:  The [Aquila-VL-2B](https://huggingface.co/BAAI/Aquila-VL-2B-llava-qwen) model and [Infinity-MM](https://huggingface.co/datasets/BAAI/Infinity-MM) dataset are now available, and the Aquila-VL-2B-CG model for opensource is coming soon.  We have also released the [technical report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.18558) simultaneously.

# Evaluation

We evaluated the model using the [VLMEvalKit](https://github.com/open-compass/VLMEvalKit) tool. Whenever possible, we prioritized using the OpenAI API for test sets that support API-based evaluation.

For comparison models, evaluations were conducted in a local environment, so the scores may differ slightly from those reported in papers or on the official VLMEvalKit leaderboard.

# Future Plan

* We plan to train models of various sizes.
* Future training will incorporate multi-image and video data.
