BLIVA Model Card
Model details
Model type: BLIVA is an open-source Vision-Languagde model trained by initializing from InstructBLIP and alignment with Vicuna on multimodal instruction-finetuning data. It composes of an EVA-CLIP vision encoder, a Q-Former, a projection layer and an auto-regressive language model, based on the decoder only transformer architecture.
Model date: BLIVA_FlanT5 was trained in July 2023.
