## 介绍
CVisualGLM-6B 是一个开源的,支持**图像、中文和英文**的多模态对话语言模型,语言模型基于 [ChatGLM-6B](https://github.com/THUDM/ChatGLM-6B),具有 62 亿参数;图像部分通过训练 [BLIP2-Qformer](https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.12597) 构建起视觉模型与语言模型的桥梁,整体模型共78亿参数。
VisualGLM-6B 依靠来自于 [CogView](https://arxiv.org/abs/2105.13290) 数据集的30M高质量中文图文对,与300M经过筛选的英文图文对进行预训练,中英文权重相同。该训练方式较好地将视觉信息对齐到ChatGLM的语义空间;之后的微调阶段,模型在长视觉问答数据上训练,以生成符合人类偏好的答案。
## 软件依赖
```shell
pip install SwissArmyTransformer>=0.3.6 torch>1.10.0 torchvision transformers>=4.27.1 cpm_kernels
```
## 代码调用
可以通过如下代码调用 VisualGLM-6B 模型来生成对话:
```ipython
>>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("THUDM/chatglm-6b", trust_remote_code=True)
>>> model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("THUDM/chatglm-6b", trust_remote_code=True).half().cuda()
>>> image_path = "your image path"
>>> response, history = model.chat(tokenizer, image_path, "描述这张图片。", history=[])
>>> print(response)
>>> response, history = model.chat(tokenizer, "这张图片可能是在什么场所拍摄的?", history=history)
>>> print(response)
```
关于更多的使用说明,包括如何运行命令行和网页版本的 DEMO,以及使用模型量化以节省显存,请参考我们的 [Github Repo](https://github.com/THUDM/VisualGLM-6B)。
