# Vision-R1-7B

Vision-R1 is a multimodal reasoning model designed to improve reasoning capabilities in MLLMs. It is introduced in the paper [Vision-R1: Incentivizing Reasoning Capability in Multimodal Large Language Models](https://huggingface.co/papers/2503.06749).

The model is built upon the Qwen2.5-VL-7B architecture and fine-tuned using a specialized two-stage pipeline:
1. **Cold-start Initialization**: Fine-tuning on a 200K multimodal Chain-of-Thought (CoT) dataset (Vision-R1-cold) constructed via modality bridging.
2. **Reinforcement Learning**: Using Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) with a Progressive Thinking Suppression Training (PTST) strategy to incentivize complex reasoning processes like questioning and self-reflection.

## Usage

### Using 🤗 Transformers

To run inference using the script provided in the [official repository](https://github.com/Osilly/Vision-R1):

```bash
# Inference script for Vision-R1-7B model using transformers
MODEL_PATH="Osilly/Vision-R1-7B" 
TEMP=0.6
TOP_P=0.95
MAX_TOKENS=4096
IMAGE_PATH="./figs/example1.png"
PROMPT="Given a cone with a base radius represented by the variable 'r' (r = 1) and a slant height represented by the variable 's' (s = 3), determine the lateral surface area using variables.
Choices:
A: 2π
B: 3π
C: 6π
D: 8π"

python3 inference.py \
    --model_path ${MODEL_PATH}  \
    --enable_flash_attn True \
    --image_path ${IMAGE_PATH} \
    --prompt "${PROMPT}" \
    --max_tokens ${MAX_TOKENS} \
    --temperature ${TEMP} \
    --top_p ${TOP_P}
```
