Model Architecture

As shown in the following figure, InternVL2.5-MPO retains the same model architecture as InternVL 2.5 and its predecessors, InternVL 1.5 and 2.0, following the "ViT-MLP-LLM" paradigm. In this new version, we integrate a newly incrementally pre-trained InternViT with various pre-trained LLMs, including InternLM 2.5 and Qwen 2.5, using a randomly initialized MLP projector.

As in the previous version, we applied a pixel unshuffle operation, reducing the number of visual tokens to one-quarter of the original. Besides, we adopted a similar dynamic resolution strategy as InternVL 1.5, dividing images into tiles of 448×448 pixels. The key difference, starting from InternVL 2.0, is that we additionally introduced support for multi-image and video data.

Key Designs

Multi-Modal Preference Dataset

MMPR is a large-scale and high-quality multimodal reasoning preference dataset. This dataset includes about 3 million samples.

To construct this dataset, we propose an efficient data construction pipeline. Specifically, we categorize the multimodal data into samples with clear ground truths and samples without clear ground truths.

• For samples with clear ground truths: the model is prompted to first provide the reasoning process and then give the final answer in the format like Final Answer: ***. Responses matching the ground truth answer constitute the positive set ${\mathcal{Y}}_p\backslash mathcal\{Y\}\_p$, while those that do not match make up the negative set ${\mathcal{Y}}_n\backslash mathcal\{Y\}\_n$. Additionally, responses that fail to provide a clear final answer are also merged into ${\mathcal{Y}}_n\backslash mathcal\{Y\}\_n$. Given these responses labeled as positive or negative, we build the preference pairs by selecting a chosen response $y_{c}y\_c$ from ${\mathcal{Y}}_p\backslash mathcal\{Y\}\_p$ and a negative response $y_{r}y\_r$ from ${\mathcal{Y}}_n\backslash mathcal\{Y\}\_n$.

• For samples without clear ground truths: we propose a simple yet effective method: Dropout Next-Token Prediction (Dropout NTP). Specifically, we use the responses generated by InternVL2-8B as chosen answers. Given the chosen answer, we truncate it by half and then prompt InternVL2-8B to complete the remaining portion of the truncated answer without access to the image input. This generated completion serves as the rejected answer for the paired sample. It is worth noting that while the responses generated by InternVL2-8B may not be perfect, the completions generated without the image input will introduce more hallucinations than those generated with the image input. Therefore, the partial order relationship between the chosen and rejected responses holds true.

The data construction pipeline is open-sourced, see more details in our document.

Mixed Preference Optimization

The key insight behind MPO is that an effective PO process should enable the model to learn the relative preference between pairs of responses, the absolute quality of individual responses, and the process for generating preferred responses. We define the training objective as a combination of preference loss ${\mathcal{L}}_{\text{p}}\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{p\}\}$, quality loss ${\mathcal{L}}_{\text{q}}\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{q\}\}$, and generation loss ${\mathcal{L}}_{\text{g}}\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{g\}\}$, referred to as Mixed Preference Optimization:

$$\mathcal{L}=w_p\cdot {\mathcal{L}}_{\text{p}}+w_q\cdot {\mathcal{L}}_{\text{q}}+w_g\cdot {\mathcal{L}}_{\text{g}},\backslash mathcal\{L\}=w\_\{p\}\backslash cdot\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{p\}\}\; +\; w\_\{q\}\backslash cdot\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{q\}\}\; +\; w\_\{g\}\backslash cdot\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{g\}\},$$

where $w_{\ast }w\_\{*\}$ represents the weight assigned to each loss component. In this work, we empirically compare different variants of preference loss. Based on the experimental results, we use DPO as our preference loss and BCO as our quality loss.

Specifically, the DPO serves as the preference loss to enable the model to learn the relative preference between chosen and rejected responses. This algorithm optimizes the following loss function:

$${\mathcal{L}}_{\text{p}}=-\log \sigma (\beta \log \frac{{\pi }_{\theta }(y_c\mid x)}{{\pi }_0(y_c\mid x)}-\beta \log \frac{{\pi }_{\theta }(y_r\mid x)}{{\pi }_0(y_r\mid x)}),\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{p\}\}=-\backslash log\; \backslash sigma\backslash left(\backslash beta\; \backslash log\; \backslash frac\{\backslash pi\_\backslash theta\backslash left(y\_c\; \backslash mid\; x\backslash right)\}\{\backslash pi\_0\backslash left(y\_c\; \backslash mid\; x\backslash right)\}-\backslash beta\; \backslash log\; \backslash frac\{\backslash pi\_\backslash theta\backslash left(y\_r\; \backslash mid\; x\backslash right)\}\{\backslash pi\_0\backslash left(y\_r\; \backslash mid\; x\backslash right)\}\backslash right),$$

where $\beta \backslash beta$ is the KL penalty coefficient, and $xx$, $y_{c}y\_c$, and $y_{r}y\_r$ are user query, chosen response, and rejected response, respectively. The policy model ${\pi }_{\theta }\backslash pi\_\backslash theta$ is initialized from model ${\pi }_0\backslash pi\_0$.

Additionally, the BCO loss is employed as the quality loss, which helps the model to understand the absolute quality of individual responses. The loss function is defined as:

$${\mathcal{L}}_{\text{q}}={\mathcal{L}}_{\text{q}}^{+}+{\mathcal{L}}_{\text{q}}^{-},\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{q\}\}=\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{q\}\}^+\; +\; \backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{q\}\}^-,$$

where ${\mathcal{L}}_{\text{q}}^{+}\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{q\}\}^\{+\}$ and ${\mathcal{L}}_{\text{q}}^{+}\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{q\}\}^\{+\}$ represent the loss for chosen and rejected responses, respectively. Each response type's loss is calculated independently, requiring the model to differentiate the absolute quality of individual responses. The loss terms are given by:

$${\mathcal{L}}_{\text{q}}^{+}=-\log \sigma (\beta \log \frac{{\pi }_{\theta }(y_c\mid x)}{{\pi }_0(y_c\mid x)}-\delta ),\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{q\}\}^+=-\backslash log\; \backslash sigma\backslash left(\backslash beta\; \backslash log\; \backslash frac\{\backslash pi\_\backslash theta\backslash left(y\_c\; \backslash mid\; x\backslash right)\}\{\backslash pi\_0\backslash left(y\_c\; \backslash mid\; x\backslash right)\}\; -\; \backslash delta\backslash right),$$

$${\mathcal{L}}_{\text{q}}^{-}=-\log \sigma (-(\beta \log \frac{{\pi }_{\theta }(y_r\mid x)}{{\pi }_0(y_r\mid x)}-\delta )),\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{q\}\}^-=-\backslash log\; \backslash sigma\backslash left(-\backslash left(\backslash beta\; \backslash log\; \backslash frac\{\backslash pi\_\backslash theta\backslash left(y\_r\; \backslash mid\; x\backslash right)\}\{\backslash pi\_0\backslash left(y\_r\; \backslash mid\; x\backslash right)\}\; -\; \backslash delta\backslash right)\; \backslash right),$$

where $\delta \backslash delta$ represents the reward shift, calculated as the moving average of previous rewards to stabilize training.

Finally, the SFT loss is used as the generation loss to help the model learn the generation process of preferred responses. The loss function is defined as:

$${\mathcal{L}}_{\text{gen}}=-\frac{\log {\pi }_{\theta }(y_c\mid x)}{\mid y_c\mid }\mathrm{.}\backslash mathcal\{L\}\_\{\backslash text\{gen\}\}=-\backslash frac\{\backslash log\backslash pi\_\backslash theta\backslash left(y\_c\; \backslash mid\; x\backslash right)\}\{\backslash left|\; y\_c\; \backslash right|\}.$$

The reason for writing the code this way is to avoid errors that occur during multi-GPU inference due to tensors not being on the same device. By ensuring that the first and last layers of the large language model (LLM) are on the same device, we prevent such errors.

pixel_values, num_patches_list = load_video(video_path, num_segments=8, max_num=1)
pixel_values = pixel_values.to(torch.bfloat16).cuda()
video_prefix = ''.join([f'Frame{i+1}: <image>\n' for i in range(len(num_patches_list))])
question = video_prefix + 'What is the red panda doing?'
# Frame1: <image>\nFrame2: <image>\n...\nFrame8: <image>\n{question}
response, history = model.chat(tokenizer, pixel_values, question, generation_config,
                               num_patches_list=num_patches_list, history=None, return_history=True)
print(f'User: {question}\nAssistant: {response}')

question = 'Describe this video in detail.'
response, history = model.chat(tokenizer, pixel_values, question, generation_config,
                               num_patches_list=num_patches_list, history=history, return_history=True)
print(f'User: {question}\nAssistant: {response}')

Streaming Output

Besides this method, you can also use the following code to get streamed output.

from transformers import TextIteratorStreamer
from threading import Thread

# Initialize the streamer
streamer = TextIteratorStreamer(tokenizer, skip_prompt=True, skip_special_tokens=True, timeout=10)
# Define the generation configuration
generation_config = dict(max_new_tokens=1024, do_sample=False, streamer=streamer)
# Start the model chat in a separate thread
thread = Thread(target=model.chat, kwargs=dict(
    tokenizer=tokenizer, pixel_values=pixel_values, question=question,
    history=None, return_history=False, generation_config=generation_config,
))
thread.start()

# Initialize an empty string to store the generated text
generated_text = ''
# Loop through the streamer to get the new text as it is generated
for new_text in streamer:
    if new_text == model.conv_template.sep:
        break
    generated_text += new_text
    print(new_text, end='', flush=True)  # Print each new chunk of generated text on the same line

Finetune

Many repositories now support fine-tuning of the InternVL series models, including InternVL, SWIFT, XTurner, and others. Please refer to their documentation for more details on fine-tuning.

Deployment

LMDeploy

LMDeploy is a toolkit for compressing, deploying, and serving LLMs & VLMs.

pip install lmdeploy>=0.6.4

LMDeploy abstracts the complex inference process of multi-modal Vision-Language Models (VLM) into an easy-to-use pipeline, similar to the Large Language Model (LLM) inference pipeline.

A 'Hello, world' Example

from lmdeploy import pipeline, TurbomindEngineConfig
from lmdeploy.vl import load_image

model = 'OpenGVLab/InternVL2_5-4B-MPO'
image = load_image('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/open-mmlab/mmdeploy/main/tests/data/tiger.jpeg')
pipe = pipeline(model, backend_config=TurbomindEngineConfig(session_len=8192))
response = pipe(('describe this image', image))
print(response.text)

If ImportError occurs while executing this case, please install the required dependency packages as prompted.

Multi-images Inference

When dealing with multiple images, you can put them all in one list. Keep in mind that multiple images will lead to a higher number of input tokens, and as a result, the size of the context window typically needs to be increased.

from lmdeploy import pipeline, TurbomindEngineConfig
from lmdeploy.vl import load_image
from lmdeploy.vl.constants import IMAGE_TOKEN

model = 'OpenGVLab/InternVL2_5-4B-MPO'
pipe = pipeline(model, backend_config=TurbomindEngineConfig(session_len=8192))

image_urls=[
    'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/open-mmlab/mmdeploy/main/demo/resources/human-pose.jpg',
    'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/open-mmlab/mmdeploy/main/demo/resources/det.jpg'
]

images = [load_image(img_url) for img_url in image_urls]
# Numbering images improves multi-image conversations
response = pipe((f'Image-1: {IMAGE_TOKEN}\nImage-2: {IMAGE_TOKEN}\ndescribe these two images', images))
print(response.text)

Batch Prompts Inference

Conducting inference with batch prompts is quite straightforward; just place them within a list structure:

from lmdeploy import pipeline, TurbomindEngineConfig
from lmdeploy.vl import load_image

model = 'OpenGVLab/InternVL2_5-4B-MPO'
pipe = pipeline(model, backend_config=TurbomindEngineConfig(session_len=8192))

image_urls=[
    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/open-mmlab/mmdeploy/main/demo/resources/human-pose.jpg",
    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/open-mmlab/mmdeploy/main/demo/resources/det.jpg"
]
prompts = [('describe this image', load_image(img_url)) for img_url in image_urls]
response = pipe(prompts)
print(response)

Multi-turn Conversation

There are two ways to do the multi-turn conversations with the pipeline. One is to construct messages according to the format of OpenAI and use above introduced method, the other is to use the pipeline.chat interface.

from lmdeploy import pipeline, TurbomindEngineConfig, GenerationConfig
from lmdeploy.vl import load_image

model = 'OpenGVLab/InternVL2_5-4B-MPO'
pipe = pipeline(model, backend_config=TurbomindEngineConfig(session_len=8192))

image = load_image('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/open-mmlab/mmdeploy/main/demo/resources/human-pose.jpg')
gen_config = GenerationConfig(top_k=40, top_p=0.8, temperature=0.8)
sess = pipe.chat(('describe this image', image), gen_config=gen_config)
print(sess.response.text)
sess = pipe.chat('What is the woman doing?', session=sess, gen_config=gen_config)
print(sess.response.text)

Service

LMDeploy's api_server enables models to be easily packed into services with a single command. The provided RESTful APIs are compatible with OpenAI's interfaces. Below are an example of service startup:

lmdeploy serve api_server OpenGVLab/InternVL2_5-4B-MPO --server-port 23333

To use the OpenAI-style interface, you need to install OpenAI:

pip install openai

Then, use the code below to make the API call:

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(api_key='YOUR_API_KEY', base_url='http://0.0.0.0:23333/v1')
model_name = client.models.list().data[0].id
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model=model_name,
    messages=[{
        'role':
        'user',
        'content': [{
            'type': 'text',
            'text': 'describe this image',
        }, {
            'type': 'image_url',
            'image_url': {
                'url':
                'https://modelscope.oss-cn-beijing.aliyuncs.com/resource/tiger.jpeg',
            },
        }],
    }],
    temperature=0.8,
    top_p=0.8)
print(response)
