How to use rayruiyang/VST-7B-RL with Transformers:

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

pipe = pipeline("image-text-to-text", model="rayruiyang/VST-7B-RL")
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, AutoModelForImageTextToText

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("rayruiyang/VST-7B-RL")
model = AutoModelForImageTextToText.from_pretrained("rayruiyang/VST-7B-RL")
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]:]))

This PR updates the model card for VST-7B-RL by adding crucial metadata:

library_name: transformers: This indicates compatibility with the 🤗 Transformers library, enabling the automated "how to use" widget on the model page. The existing sample code confirms this compatibility.
pipeline_tag: image-text-to-text: This categorizes the model correctly on the Hugging Face Hub, enhancing discoverability for users looking for models that process both image and text inputs to generate text.

The existing content, including links to the paper, project page, codebase, and sample usage, remains unchanged as it is already well-documented.
