# nlpconnect/vit-gpt2-image-captioning
This is an image captioning model trained by @ydshieh in [flax ](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/main/examples/flax/image-captioning) this is pytorch version of [this](https://huggingface.co/ydshieh/vit-gpt2-coco-en-ckpts).

# Sample running code using transformers pipeline
