Libraries

How to use wanglne/EVA-llava-1.5-7b-hf with Transformers:

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

pipe = pipeline("image-text-to-text", model="wanglne/EVA-llava-1.5-7b-hf")
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("wanglne/EVA-llava-1.5-7b-hf")
model = AutoModelForMultimodalLM.from_pretrained("wanglne/EVA-llava-1.5-7b-hf", device_map="auto")
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]:]))

EVA-LLaVA-1.5-7B

This repository contains the final LLaVA-1.5-7B checkpoint produced by EVA.

EVA is an editing-based framework for improving the robustness and safety alignment of large language models and vision-language models against diverse jailbreak attacks while preserving their general capabilities on benign tasks.

Resources

Paper: EVA: Editing for Versatile Alignment against Jailbreaks
IEEE TPAMI: 10.1109/TPAMI.2026.3694189
Code: wanglne/EVA
EVA model collection: EVA models

Intended use

This checkpoint is released for research, reproduction, safety evaluation, and comparison with other alignment methods.
