Instructions to use Svard/LaViT-3B with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use Svard/LaViT-3B with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("image-text-to-text", model="Svard/LaViT-3B")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForMultimodalLM

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Svard/LaViT-3B")
model = AutoModelForMultimodalLM.from_pretrained("Svard/LaViT-3B")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(processor.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

Hi! I'm Niels from the community science team at Hugging Face.

This PR improves the model card's metadata by:

Updating the pipeline_tag to image-text-to-text to better reflect the model's multimodal capabilities.
Adding library_name: transformers to enable the automated code snippet feature on the Hub, as the model is compatible with the transformers library.

The rest of the model card content has been preserved as it already provides excellent documentation, with the addition of a GitHub link in the header for easier access to the source code.
