Pixtral

##
Overview

The Pixtral model was released by the Mistral AI team in a blog post. Pixtral is a multimodal version of Mistral, incorporating a 400 million parameter vision encoder trained from scratch.

The intro from the blog says the following:

Pixtral is trained to understand both natural images and documents, achieving 52.5% on the MMMU reasoning benchmark, surpassing a number of larger models. The model shows strong abilities in tasks such as chart and figure understanding, document question answering, multimodal reasoning and instruction following. Pixtral is able to ingest images at their natural resolution and aspect ratio, giving the user flexibility on the number of tokens used to process an image. Pixtral is also able to process any number of images in its long context window of 128K tokens. Unlike previous open-source models, Pixtral does not compromise on text benchmark performance to excel in multimodal tasks.

Pixtral architecture. Taken from the blog post.

Tips:

- Pixtral is a multimodal model, taking images and text as input, and producing text as output.
- This model follows the Llava architecture. The model uses PixtralVisionModel for its vision encoder, and MistralForCausalLM for its language decoder.
- The main contribution is the 2d ROPE (rotary position embeddings) on the images, and support for arbitrary image sizes (the images are not padded together nor are they resized).
- Similar to Llava, the model internally replaces the `[IMG]` token placeholders by image embeddings from the vision encoder. The format for one or multiple prompts is the following:

    "<s>[INST][IMG]\nWhat are the things I should be cautious about when I visit this place?[/INST]"

Then, the processor will replace each `[IMG]` token with a number of `[IMG]` tokens that depend on the height and the width of each image. Each row of the image is separated by an `[IMG_BREAK]` token, and each image is separated by an `[IMG_END]` token. It’s advised to use the `apply_chat_template` method of the processor, which takes care of all of this. See the usage section for more info.

This model was contributed by amyeroberts and ArthurZ. The original code can be found here.

##
Usage

At inference time, it’s advised to use the processor’s `apply_chat_template` method, which correctly formats the prompt for the model:

    from transformers import AutoProcessor, LlavaForConditionalGeneration
    from PIL import Image

    model_id = "mistral-community/pixtral-12b"
    processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_id)
    model = LlavaForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(model_id).to("cuda")

    url_dog = "https://picsum.photos/id/237/200/300"
    url_mountain = "https://picsum.photos/seed/picsum/200/300"

    chat = [
        {
          "role": "user", "content": [
            {"type": "text", "content": "Can this animal"},
            {"type": "image"},
            {"type": "text", "content": "live here?"},
            {"type": "image"}
          ]
        }
    ]

    prompt = processor.apply_chat_template(chat)
    inputs = processor(text=prompt, images=[url_dog, url_mountain], return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
    generate_ids = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=500)
    output = processor.batch_decode(generate_ids, skip_special_tokens=True, clean_up_tokenization_spaces=False)[0]

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a PixtralVisionModel. It is used to instantiate an Pixtral vision encoder according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to the vision encoder used by Pixtral-12B.

e.g. pixtral-hf/pixtral-9b

Configuration objects inherit from PretrainedConfig and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from PretrainedConfig for more information.

Example:

    >>> from transformers import PixtralVisionModel, PixtralVisionConfig

    >>> # Initializing a Pixtral-12B style configuration
    >>> config = PixtralVisionConfig()

    >>> # Initializing a model (with randomly initialized weights) from the configuration
    >>> model = PixtralVisionModel(configuration)

    >>> # Accessing the model configuration
    >>> configuration = model.config

( config )

Parameters

- config (PixtralVisionConfig) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the vision encoder. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

The bare Pixtral vision encoder outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top. This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch torch.nn.Module subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

forward

( pixel_values: List output_hidden_states: Optional = False output_attentions: Optional = None return_dict: Optional = None *args **kwargs ) →
pixel_values

Parameters

- pixel_values (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, num_channels, height, width)`) — Pixel values. Pixel values can be obtained using AutoImageProcessor. See `AutoImageProcessor.__call__()` for details.
- output_attentions (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail.
- output_hidden_states (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for more detail.
- return_dict (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple.

Returns

pixel_values

tensor of token features for all tokens of all images of shape (N_toks, D)

The PixtralVisionModel forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.
