SmolVLM

##
Overview

SmolVLM2 is an adaptation of the Idefics3 model with two main differences:

- It uses SmolLM2 for the text model.
- It supports multi-image and video inputs

##
Usage tips

Input images are processed either by upsampling (if resizing is enabled) or at their original resolution. The resizing behavior depends on two parameters: do_resize and size.

Videos should not be upsampled.

If `do_resize` is set to `True`, the model resizes images so that the longest edge is 4512 pixels by default. The default resizing behavior can be customized by passing a dictionary to the `size` parameter. For example, `{“longest_edge”: 4 512}` is the default, but you can change it to a different value if needed.

Here’s how to control resizing and set a custom size:

    image_processor = SmolVLMImageProcessor(do_resize=True, size={"longest_edge": 2 * 512}, max_image_size=512)

Additionally, the `max_image_size` parameter, which controls the size of each square patch the image is decomposed into, is set to 512 by default but can be adjusted as needed. After resizing (if applicable), the image processor decomposes the images into square patches based on the `max_image_size` parameter.

This model was contributed by orrzohar.

Usage example

###
Single Media inference

The model can accept both images and videos as input, but you should use only one of the modalities at a time. Here’s an example code for that.

    import torch
    from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForImageTextToText

    processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-256M-Video-Instruct")
    model = AutoModelForImageTextToText.from_pretrained(
        "HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-256M-Video-Instruct",
        torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
        device_map="cuda"
    )

    conversation = [
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content":[
                {"type": "image", "url": "http://images.cocodataset.org/val2017/000000039769.jpg"},
                {"type": "text", "text": "Describe this image."}
            ]
        }
    ]

    inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
        conversation,
        add_generation_prompt=True,
        tokenize=True,
        return_dict=True,
        return_tensors="pt",
    ).to(model.device, dtype=torch.bfloat16)

    output_ids = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=128)
    generated_texts = processor.batch_decode(output_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
    print(generated_texts)

    # Video
    conversation = [
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": [
                {"type": "video", "path": "/path/to/video.mp4"},
                {"type": "text", "text": "Describe this video in detail"}
            ]
        },
    ]

    inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
        conversation,
        add_generation_prompt=True,
        tokenize=True,
        return_dict=True,
        return_tensors="pt",
    ).to(model.device, dtype=torch.bfloat16)

    generated_ids = model.generate(**inputs, do_sample=False, max_new_tokens=100)
    generated_texts = processor.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
    print(generated_texts[0])

###
Batch Mixed Media Inference

The model can batch inputs composed of several images/videos and text. Here is an example.

    import torch
    from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForImageTextToText

    processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-256M-Video-Instruct")
    model = AutoModelForImageTextToText.from_pretrained(
        "HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-256M-Video-Instruct",
        torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
        device_map="cuda"
    )

    # Conversation for the first image
    conversation1 = [
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": [
                {"type": "image", "path": "/path/to/image.jpg"},
                {"type": "text", "text": "Describe this image."}
            ]
        }
    ]

    # Conversation with two images
    conversation2 = [
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": [
                {"type": "image", "path": "/path/to/image.jpg"},
                {"type": "image", "path": "/path/to/image.jpg"},
                {"type": "text", "text": "What is written in the pictures?"}
            ]
        }
    ]

    # Conversation with pure text
    conversation3 = [
        {"role": "user","content": "who are you?"}
    ]

    conversations = [conversation1, conversation2, conversation3]
    inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
        conversation,
        add_generation_prompt=True,
        tokenize=True,
        return_dict=True,
        return_tensors="pt",
    ).to(model.device, dtype=torch.bfloat16)

    generated_ids = model.generate(**inputs, do_sample=False, max_new_tokens=100)
    generated_texts = processor.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
    print(generated_texts[0])

Configuration objects inherit from PretrainedConfig and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from PretrainedConfig for more information.

Example:

    >>> from transformers import SmolVLMModel, SmolVLMConfig
    >>> # Initializing configuration
    >>> configuration = SmolVLMConfig()
    >>> # Initializing a model from the configuration
    >>> model = SmolVLMModel(configuration)

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a `SmolVLMVisionModel`. It is used to instantiate a SmolVLM vision encoder according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the SigLIP checkpoint google/siglip-so400m-patch14-384 used in SmolVLM HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct.

Configuration objects inherit from PretrainedConfig and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from PretrainedConfig for more information.

Example:

    >>> from transformers.models.smolvlm.modeling_smolvlm import SmolVLMVisionTransformer
    >>> from transformers.models.smolvlm.configuration_smolvlm import SmolVLMVisionConfig

    >>> # Initializing a SmolVLMVisionConfig with google/siglip-so400m-patch14-384 style configuration
    >>> configuration = SmolVLMVisionConfig()

    >>> # Initializing a SmolVLMVisionTransformer (with random weights) from the google/siglip-so400m-patch14-384 style configuration

( input_ids: typing.Optional[torch.LongTensor] = None attention_mask: typing.Optional[torch.Tensor] = None position_ids: typing.Optional[torch.LongTensor] = None past_key_values: typing.Optional[typing.List[torch.FloatTensor]] = None inputs_embeds: typing.Optional[torch.FloatTensor] = None pixel_values: typing.Optional[torch.FloatTensor] = None pixel_attention_mask: typing.Optional[torch.BoolTensor] = None image_hidden_states: typing.Optional[torch.FloatTensor] = None use_cache: typing.Optional[bool] = None output_attentions: typing.Optional[bool] = None output_hidden_states: typing.Optional[bool] = None return_dict: typing.Optional[bool] = None cache_position: typing.Optional[torch.LongTensor] = None )

Parameters

- input_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Padding will be ignored by default should you provide it.

  Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

  What are input IDs?

- attention_mask (`torch.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional) — Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 for tokens that are not masked,
  - 0 for tokens that are masked.

  What are attention masks?

  Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

  If `past_key_values` is used, optionally only the last `decoder_input_ids` have to be input (see `past_key_values`).

  If you want to change padding behavior, you should read `modeling_opt._prepare_decoder_attention_mask` and modify to your needs. See diagram 1 in the paper for more information on the default strategy.

  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- position_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional) — Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. Selected in the range `[0, config.n_positions - 1]`. What are position IDs?
- past_key_values (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor))`, optional, returned when `use_cache=True` is passed or when `config.use_cache=True`) — Tuple of `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)` of length `config.n_layers`, with each tuple having 2 tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, embed_size_per_head)`) and 2 additional tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, encoder_sequence_length, embed_size_per_head)`.

  Contains pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks and in the cross-attention blocks) that can be used (see `past_key_values` input) to speed up sequential decoding.

  If `past_key_values` are used, the user can optionally input only the last `decoder_input_ids` (those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape `(batch_size, 1)` instead of all `decoder_input_ids` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`.

- inputs_embeds (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, optional) — Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.
- pixel_values (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, num_channels, image_size, image_size)) -- The tensors corresponding to the input images. Pixel values can be obtained using [AutoImageProcessor](/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoImageProcessor). See [CLIPImageProcessor.__call__()](/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/vit#transformers.ViTFeatureExtractor.__call__) for details ([]`LlavaProcessor`] uses CLIPImageProcessor for processing images).
- pixel_attention_mask (`torch.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, image_size, image_size)`, optional) — Mask to avoid performing attention on padding pixel indices.
- image_hidden_states (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, num_channels, image_size, image_size)`) — The hidden states of the image encoder after modality projection.
- use_cache (`bool`, optional) — If set to `True`, `past_key_values` key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see `past_key_values`).
- output_attentions (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail.
- output_hidden_states (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for more detail.
- return_dict (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple.
- cache_position (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(sequence_length)`, optional) — Indices depicting the position of the input sequence tokens in the sequence. Contrarily to `position_ids`, this tensor is not affected by padding. It is used to update the cache in the correct position and to infer the complete sequence length.

The SmolVLMModel forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Inputs fed to the model can have an arbitrary number of images. To account for this, pixel_values fed to the model have image padding -> (batch_size, max_num_images, 3, max_heights, max_widths) where max_num_images is the maximum number of images among the batch_size samples in the batch. Padding images are not needed beyond padding the pixel_values at the entrance of the model. For efficiency, we only pass through the vision_model’s forward the real images by discarding the padding images i.e. pixel_values of size (image_batch_size, 3, height, width) where image_batch_size would be 7 when num_images_per_sample=[1, 3, 1, 2] and max_num_images would be 3.

Parameters

- do_convert_rgb (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether to convert the image to RGB. This is useful if the input image is of a different format e.g. RGBA. Only has an effect if the input image is in the PIL format.
- do_resize (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether to resize the image. The longest edge of the image is resized to be <= `size["longest_edge"]`, with the shortest edge resized to keep the input aspect ratio.
- size (`Dict`, optional, defaults to `{"longest_edge" -- 4 * 364}`): Controls the size of the output image. This is a dictionary containing the key “longest_edge”. The image will be resized such that the longest edge is <= `size["longest_edge"]` and the shortest edge is resized to keep the input aspect ratio.
- resample (`Resampling`, optional, defaults to `Resampling.LANCZOS`) — Resampling filter to use when resizing the image.
- do_image_splitting (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether to split the image into sub-images concatenated with the original image. They are split into patches such that each patch has a size of `max_image_size["height"]` x `max_image_size["width"]`.
- max_image_size (`Dict`, optional, defaults to `{"longest_edge" -- 364}`): Maximum resolution of the patches of images accepted by the model. This is a dictionary containing the key “longest_edge”.
- do_rescale (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether to rescale the image. If set to `True`, the image is rescaled to have pixel values between 0 and 1.
- rescale_factor (`float`, optional, defaults to `1/255`) — Rescale factor to rescale the image by if `do_rescale` is set to `True`.
- do_normalize (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether to normalize the image. If set to `True`, the image is normalized to have a mean of `image_mean` and a standard deviation of `image_std`.
- image_mean (`float` or `List[float]`, optional, defaults to `IDEFICS_STANDARD_MEAN`) — Mean to use if normalizing the image. This is a float or list of floats the length of the number of channels in the image. Can be overridden by the `image_mean` parameter in the `preprocess` method. Can be overridden by the `image_mean` parameter in the `preprocess` method.
- image_std (`float` or `List[float]`, optional, defaults to `IDEFICS_STANDARD_STD`) — Standard deviation to use if normalizing the image. This is a float or list of floats the length of the number of channels in the image. Can be overridden by the `image_std` parameter in the `preprocess` method. Can be overridden by the `image_std` parameter in the `preprocess` method.
- do_pad (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not to pad the images to the largest height and width in the batch and number of images per sample in the batch, such that the returned tensor is of shape (batch_size, max_num_images, num_channels, max_height, max_width).

class transformers.SmolVLMProcessor

< source >

( image_processor tokenizer = None image_seq_len: int = 169 chat_template: typing.Optional[str] = None **kwargs )

Parameters

- image_processor (`SmolVLMImageProcessor`) — An instance of SmolVLMImageProcessor. The image processor is a required input.
- tokenizer (`PreTrainedTokenizerBase`, optional) — An instance of PreTrainedTokenizerBase. This should correspond with the model’s text model. The tokenizer is a required input.
- image_seq_len (`int`, optional, defaults to 169) — The length of the image sequence i.e. the number of tokens per image in the input. This parameter is used to build the string from the input prompt and image tokens and should match the value the model used. It is computed as: image_seq_len = int(((image_size // patch_size) 2) / (scale_factor2))
- chat_template (`str`, optional) — A Jinja template which will be used to convert lists of messages in a chat into a tokenizable string.

Constructs a SmolVLM processor which wraps a LLama tokenizer and SmolVLM image processor into a single processor.

SmolVLMProcessor offers all the functionalities of SmolVLMImageProcessor and `SmolVLMTokenizerFast`. See the docstring of call() and `decode()` for more information.

__call__

< source >

( images: typing.Union[ForwardRef('PIL.Image.Image'), numpy.ndarray, ForwardRef('torch.Tensor'), list['PIL.Image.Image'], list[numpy.ndarray], list['torch.Tensor'], typing.List[typing.Union[ForwardRef('PIL.Image.Image'), numpy.ndarray, ForwardRef('torch.Tensor'), list['PIL.Image.Image'], list[numpy.ndarray], list['torch.Tensor']]], typing.List[typing.List[typing.Union[ForwardRef('PIL.Image.Image'), numpy.ndarray, ForwardRef('torch.Tensor'), list['PIL.Image.Image'], list[numpy.ndarray], list['torch.Tensor']]]]] = None text: typing.Union[str, ForwardRef('PreTokenizedInput'), typing.List[str], typing.List[ForwardRef('PreTokenizedInput')]] = None audio = None videos: typing.Union[list['PIL.Image.Image'], ForwardRef('np.ndarray'), ForwardRef('torch.Tensor'), list['np.ndarray'], list['torch.Tensor'], list[list['PIL.Image.Image']], list[list['np.ndarray']], list[list['torch.Tensor']]] = None **kwargs: typing_extensions.Unpack[transformers.models.smolvlm.processing_smolvlm.SmolVLMProcessorKwargs] )

Parameters

- images (`PIL.Image.Image`, `np.ndarray`, `torch.Tensor`, `List[PIL.Image.Image]`, `List[np.ndarray]`, `List[torch.Tensor]`, optional) — The image or batch of images to be prepared. Each image can be a PIL image, NumPy array or PyTorch tensor. If is of type `List[ImageInput]`, it’s assumed that this is for a single prompt i.e. of batch size 1.
- text (`Union[TextInput, PreTokenizedInput, List[TextInput], List[PreTokenizedInput]]`, optional) — The sequence or batch of sequences to be encoded. Each sequence can be a string or a list of strings (pretokenized string). If the sequences are provided as list of strings (pretokenized), you must set `is_split_into_words=True` (to lift the ambiguity with a batch of sequences). Wherever an image token, `<image>` is encountered it is expanded to `<fake_token_around_image>` + `<row_x_col_y>` + `<image>` `image_seq_len` `.
- return_tensors (`Union[str, TensorType]`, optional) — If set, will return tensors of a particular framework. See PreTrainedTokenizerFast.call() for more information.

Processes the input prompts and returns a BatchEncoding.
