ever wondered how you can make an API call to a visual-question-answering model without sending an image url 👀

you can do that by converting your local image to base64 and sending it to the API.

recently I made some changes to my library "loadimg" that allows you to make converting images to base64 a breeze.
🔗 https://github.com/not-lain/loadimg

API request example 🛠️:
from loadimg import load_img
from huggingface_hub import InferenceClient

# or load a local image
my_b64_img = load_img(imgPath_url_pillow_or_numpy ,output_type="base64" ) 

client = InferenceClient(api_key="hf_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx")

messages = [
	{
		"role": "user",
		"content": [
			{
				"type": "text",
				"text": "Describe this image in one sentence."
			},
			{
				"type": "image_url",
				"image_url": {
					"url": my_b64_img # base64 allows using images without uploading them to the web
				}
			}
		]
	}
]

stream = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="meta-llama/Llama-3.2-11B-Vision-Instruct", 
	messages=messages, 
	max_tokens=500,
	stream=True
)

for chunk in stream:
    print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content, end="")

I have finished writing a blogpost about building an image-based retrieval system, This is one of the first-ever approaches to building such a pipeline using only open-source models/libraries 🤗

You can checkout the blogpost in https://huggingface.co/blog/not-lain/image-retriever and the associated space at not-lain/image-retriever .

✨ If you want to request another blog post consider letting me know down below or you can reach out to me through any of my social media

📖 Happy reading !

It is with great pleasure I inform you that huggingface's ModelHubMixin reached 200+ models on the hub 🥳

ModelHubMixin is a class developed by HF to integrate AI models with the hub with ease and it comes with 3 methods :
* save_pretrained
* from_pretrained
* push_to_hub

Shoutout to @nielsr , @Wauplin and everyone else on HF for their awesome work 🤗

If you are not familiar with ModelHubMixin and you are looking for extra resources you might consider :
* docs: https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/main/en/package_reference/mixins

If you're a researcher or developing your own model 👀 you might need to take a look at huggingface's ModelHubMixin classes.
They are used to seamlessly integrate your AI model with huggingface and to save/ load your model easily 🚀

1️⃣ make sure you're using the appropriate library version
pip install -qU "huggingface_hub>=0.22"

2️⃣ inherit from the appropriate class
from huggingface_hub import PyTorchModelHubMixin
from torch import nn

class MyModel(nn.Module,PyTorchModelHubMixin):
  def __init__(self, a, b):
    super().__init__()
    self.layer = nn.Linear(a,b)
  def forward(self,inputs):
    return self.layer(inputs)

first_model = MyModel(3,1)

4️⃣ push the model to the hub (or use save_pretrained method to save locally)
first_model.push_to_hub("not-lain/test")

5️⃣ Load and initialize the model from the hub using the original class
pretrained_model = MyModel.from_pretrained("not-lain/test")

I'm looking for open-source image embedding models for RAG applications and/or multimodel embedding models if they exist in the first place.

if you have any extra resources about using, creating, or finetuning them feel free to share them below 🤗

🚀 just reached 3K+ readers on this blog post about RAG using only HF🤗 related tools in just a little over 1 week from publishing.

📃the most interesting thing about it is that you can use the FAISS index in the datasets library to retrieve your most similar documents.

Happy reading everyone ✨
