CogVLM

Introduction

CogVLM is a powerful open-source visual language model (VLM). CogVLM-17B has 10 billion vision parameters and 7 billion language parameters.
CogVLM-17B achieves state-of-the-art performance on 10 classic cross-modal benchmarks, including NoCaps, Flicker30k captioning, RefCOCO, RefCOCO+, RefCOCOg, Visual7W, GQA, ScienceQA, VizWiz VQA and TDIUC, and rank the 2nd on VQAv2, OKVQA, TextVQA, COCO captioning, etc., surpassing or matching PaLI-X 55B. CogVLM can also chat with you about images.

In the instruction fine-tuning phase of the CogVLM, there are some English image-text data from the MiniGPT-4, LLAVA, LRV-Instruction, LLaVAR and Shikra projects, as well as many classic cross-modal work datasets. We sincerely thank them for their contributions.
