Overview

MiniCPM-V 2 is a compact yet powerful vision-language model designed to bridge the gap between edge-device efficiency and high-end multimodal performance. Unlike massive proprietary models, it focuses on high-resolution image understanding and precise visual grounding, making it ideal for developers building local AI agents or mobile applications. It excels in complex OCR tasks, detailed image captioning, and visual question answering (VQA) without requiring massive compute overhead. With an Apache-2.0 license, it offers a flexible integration path for production environments, providing a competitive alternative to larger models by delivering comparable reasoning capabilities in a significantly smaller parameter footprint.

Highlights

  • High-resolution image understanding for precise visual grounding
  • Optimized for edge deployment and local inference
  • Strong performance in complex OCR and VQA tasks
  • Permissive Apache-2.0 license for commercial integration

MiniCPM-V 2.0

MiniCPM-V 2.8B is a strong multimodal large language model for efficient end-side deployment. The model is built based on SigLip-400M and MiniCPM-2.4B, connected by a perceiver resampler. Our latest version, MiniCPM-V 2.0 has several notable features.

  • 🔥 State-of-the-art Performance.

MiniCPM-V 2.0 achieves state-of-the-art performance on multiple benchmarks (including OCRBench, TextVQA, MME, MMB, MathVista, etc) among models under 7B parameters. It even outperforms strong Qwen-VL-Chat 9.6B, CogVLM-Chat 17.4B, and Yi-VL 34B on OpenCompass, a comprehensive evaluation over 11 popular benchmarks. Notably, MiniCPM-V 2.0 shows strong OCR capability, achieving comparable performance to Gemini Pro in scene-text understanding, and state-of-the-art performance on OCRBench among open-source models.

  • 🏆 Trustworthy Behavior.

LMMs are known for suffering from hallucination, often generating text not factually grounded in images. MiniCPM-V 2.0 is the first end-side LMM aligned via multimodal RLHF for trustworthy behavior (using the recent RLHF-V [CVPR'24] series technique). This allows the model to match GPT-4V in preventing hallucinations on Object HalBench.

  • 🌟 High-Resolution Images at Any Aspect Raito.

MiniCPM-V 2.0 can accept 1.8 million pixels (e.g., 1344x1344) images at any aspect ratio. This enables better perception of fine-grained visual information such as small objects and optical characters, which is achieved via a recent technique from LLaVA-UHD.

  • ⚡️ High Efficiency.

MiniCPM-V 2.0 can be efficiently deployed on most GPU cards and personal computers, and even on end devices such as mobile phones. For visual encoding, we compress the image representations into much fewer tokens via a perceiver resampler. This allows MiniCPM-V 2.0 to operate with favorable memory cost and speed during inference even when dealing with high-resolution images.

  • 🙌 Bilingual Support.

MiniCPM-V 2.0 supports strong bilingual multimodal capabilities in both English and Chinese. This is enabled by generalizing multimodal capabilities across languages, a technique from VisCPM [ICLR'24].

1. Clone our version of vLLM:

shell
git clone https://github.com/OpenBMB/vllm.git

2. Install vLLM:
shell
cd vllm
pip install -e .

#model = model.to(device='cuda', dtype=torch.float16)

For Mac with MPS (Apple silicon or AMD GPUs).


Run with PYTORCH_ENABLE_MPS_FALLBACK=1 python test.py


#model = model.to(device='mps', dtype=torch.float16)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('openbmb/MiniCPM-V-2', trust_remote_code=True)
model.eval()

image = Image.open('xx.jpg').convert('RGB')
question = 'What is in the image?'
msgs = [{'role': 'user', 'content': question}]

res, context, _ = model.chat(
image=image,
msgs=msgs,
context=None,
tokenizer=tokenizer,
sampling=True,
temperature=0.7
)
print(res)
