+# LLaMA-3-V: Extending the Visual Capabilities of LLaVA with Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct
+
+## Repository Overview
+
+This repository features LLaVA v1.5 trained with the Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct LLM. This integration aims to leverage the strengths of both models to offer advanced vision-language understanding.
+
+## Training Strategy
+
+- **Pretraining:** Only Vision-to-Language projector is trained. The rest of the model is frozen.
+- **Fine-tuning:** All model parameters including LLM are fine-tuned. Only the vision-backbone (CLIP) is kept frozen.
+- **Note:** During both pretraining and fine-tuning, the vision-backbone (CLIP) is augmented with multi-scale features following [S2-Wrapper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.13043).
+## Key Components
+
+- **Base Large Language Model (LLM):** [Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct)
+- **Base Large Multimodal Model (LMM):** [LLaVA-v1.5](https://github.com/haotian-liu/LLaVA)
+
+## Training Data
+
+- **Pretraining Dataset:** [LCS-558K](https://huggingface.co/datasets/liuhaotian/LLaVA-Pretrain)
+- **Fine-tuning Dataset:** [LLaVA-Instruct-665K](https://huggingface.co/datasets/liuhaotian/LLaVA-Instruct-150K/blob/main/llava_v1_5_mix665k.json)
