# Phi-3-V: Extending the Visual Capabilities of LLaVA with Phi-3

## Repository Overview

This repository features LLaVA v1.5 trained with the Phi-3-mini-3.8B 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:** LLM is LoRA fine-tuned. Only the vision-backbone (CLIP) is kept frozen.
- **Note:** The repository contains projector and LORA weights.

## Key Components

- **Base Large Language Model (LLM):** [Phi-3-mini-4k-instruct](https://huggingface.co/microsoft/Phi-3-mini-4k-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)
