OCR-VQA Images — Download, Reassemble, and Place into LibMoE
This guide shows how to download split archives from Hugging Face, merge them into a single ZIP, extract, and place the images into the LibMoE data tree:
libmoe/
└── data/
├── image_onevision/
├── coco/
│ └── train2017/
├── gqa/
│ └── images/
├── ocr_vqa/
│ └── images/
├── textvqa/
│ └── train_images/
└── vg/
├── VG_100K/
└── VG_100K_2/
Tested on Linux (bash). Requires ~100 GB free space for download + extraction room.
1) Download split parts from Hugging Face
Dataset: DavidNguyen/ocr_vqa, path: ocr_vqa/images_part_*.zip.part
Using curl directly (works anywhere)
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -euo pipefail
DEST=./data/ocr_vqa/ocr_vqa_parts
mkdir -p "$DEST"
cd "$DEST"
# List of parts
PARTS=$(echo a{a..x}) # aa ab ac ... ax
# Download function
download_one() {
p="$1"
file="images_part_${p}.zip.part"
url="https://huggingface.co/datasets/DavidNguyen/ocr_vqa/resolve/main/ocr_vqa/${file}?download=true"
echo "[*] downloading $file"
curl -L --fail --retry 5 --retry-delay 3 -o "$file" "$url"
}
export -f download_one
echo "$PARTS" | xargs -n1 -P8 bash -c 'download_one "$@"' _
2) Concatenate parts → a single ZIP
If you already downloaded to ./data/, the one-liner below (as requested) works:
mkdir ./data/ocr_vqa
cat ./data/ocr_vqa/images_part_*.zip.part \
> ./data/ocr_vqa/images.zip
3) Unzip
cd ./data/ocr_vqa
unzip -q images.zip
