The main project page is: [Adapt-MLLM-to-Domains](https://huggingface.co/AdaptLLM/Adapt-MLLM-to-Domains/edit/main/README.md) We investigate domain adaptation of MLLMs through post-training, focusing on data synthesis, training pipelines, and task evaluation. **(1) Data Synthesis**: Using open-source models, we develop a visual instruction synthesizer that effectively generates diverse visual instruction tasks from domain-specific image-caption pairs. **Our synthetic tasks surpass those generated by manual rules, GPT-4, and GPT-4V in enhancing the domain-specific performance of MLLMs.** **(2) Training Pipeline**: While the two-stage training--initially on image-caption pairs followed by visual instruction tasks--is commonly adopted for developing general MLLMs, we apply a single-stage training pipeline to enhance task diversity for domain-specific post-training. **(3) Task Evaluation**: We conduct experiments in two domains, biomedicine and food, by post-training MLLMs of different sources and scales (e.g., Qwen2-VL-2B, LLaVA-v1.6-8B, Llama-3.2-11B), and then evaluating MLLM performance on various domain-specific tasks.

To Chat with AdaMLLM Our model architecture aligns with the base model: Llama-3.2-Vision-Instruct. We provide a usage example below, and you may refer to the official [Llama-3.2-Vision-Instruct Repository](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-3.2-11B-Vision-Instruct) for more advanced usage instructions. **Note:** For AdaMLLM, always place the image at the beginning of the input instruction in the messages.
Click to expand Starting with transformers >= 4.45.0 onward, you can run inference using conversational messages that may include an image you can query about. Make sure to update your transformers installation via `pip install --upgrade transformers`. ```bash import requests import torch from PIL import Image from transformers import MllamaForConditionalGeneration, AutoProcessor model_id = "AdaptLLM/food-Llama-3.2-11B-Vision-Instruct" model = MllamaForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained( model_id, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, device_map="auto", ) processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_id) url = "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/0052a70beed5bf71b92610a43a52df6d286cd5f3/diffusers/rabbit.jpg" image = Image.open(requests.get(url, stream=True).raw) # NOTE: For AdaMLLM, always place the image at the beginning of the input instruction in the messages. messages = [ {"role": "user", "content": [ {"type": "image"}, {"type": "text", "text": "If I had to write a haiku for this one, it would be: "} ]} ] input_text = processor.apply_chat_template(messages, add_generation_prompt=True) inputs = processor( image, input_text, add_special_tokens=False, return_tensors="pt" ).to(model.device) output = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=30) print(processor.decode(output[0])) ```
## 2.
