PRISM Models
All models trained as part of the paper Prismatic VLMs: Investigating the Design Space of Visually-Conditioned Language Models by Siddharth Karamcheti, Suraj Nair, Ashwin Balakrishna, Percy Liang, Thomas Kollar, and Dorsa Sadigh. These models were trained in January 2024 in the open source codebase prismatic-vlms. The goal of releasing these models is to provide a thorough understanding of what design choices matter when training visually-conditioned language models in addition to providing a number of strong open-source VLMs for the community to build on.
Intended use
The primary use of PRISMs are for research and development on visually-conditioned language models. The intended users are members of the machine learning and artificial intelligence research community.

Training Procedures
All models are trained as described in the paper using the associated training codebase. The following datasets are used for training:
- All LLaVA 1.5 Training Data
- LVIS-Instruct-4V
- LRV-Instruct
Evaluation Procedures
Models are evaluated as described in the paper using the associated evaluation codebase. Evaluation datasets span a number of visual reasoning tasks including:
- General visual question answering
- Bounding box prediction
- Challenge sets which evaluate counting, identifying spatial relationships, and propensity to hallucinate
