# CogVLM

**CogVLM** is a powerful **open-source visual language model** (**VLM**). CogVLM-17B has 10 billion vision parameters and 7 billion language parameters. CogVLM-17B achieves state-of-the-art performance on 10 classic cross-modal benchmarks, including NoCaps, Flicker30k captioning, RefCOCO, RefCOCO+, RefCOCOg, Visual7W, GQA, ScienceQA, VizWiz VQA and TDIUC, and rank the 2nd on VQAv2, OKVQA, TextVQA, COCO captioning, etc., **surpassing or matching PaLI-X 55B**. CogVLM can also [chat with you](http://36.103.203.44:7861/) about images.
