# ๐ค Multi-modal GPT
Train a multi-modal chatbot with visual and language instructions!
Based on the open-source multi-modal model [OpenFlamingo](https://github.com/mlfoundations/open_flamingo), we create various **visual instruction** data with open datasets, including VQA, Image Captioning, Visual Reasoning, Text OCR, and Visual Dialogue. Additionally, we also train the language model component of OpenFlamingo using only **language-only instruction** data.
The **joint training** of visual and language instructions effectively improves the performance of the model! For more details please refer to our [technical report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.04790).
Welcome to join us!

## Features
- Support various vision and language instruction data
- Parameter efficient fine-tuning with LoRA
- Tuning vision and language at the same time, complement each other
## Installation
To install the package in an existing environment, run
```bash
git clone https://github.com/open-mmlab/Multimodal-GPT.git
cd Multimodal-GPT
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -v -e .
```
or create a new conda environment
```bash
conda env create -f environment.yml
```
## Launch Demo Locally
1. Download the pre-trained weights.
Use [this script](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/main/src/transformers/models/llama/convert_llama_weights_to_hf.py) for converting LLaMA weights to Hugging Face format.
Download the OpenFlamingo pre-trained model from [openflamingo/OpenFlamingo-9B](https://huggingface.co/openflamingo/OpenFlamingo-9B).
Download our LoRA Weight from [here](https://download.openmmlab.com/mmgpt/v0/mmgpt-lora-v0-release.pt).
Then place these models in `checkpoints` folders like this:
```
checkpoints
โโโ llama-7b_hf
โ โโโ config.json
โ โโโ pytorch_model-00001-of-00002.bin
โ โโโ ......
โ โโโ tokenizer.model
โโโ OpenFlamingo-9B
โ โโโcheckpoint.pt
โโโmmgpt-lora-v0-release.pt
2. launch the gradio demo
```bash
python app.py
```
