Libraries

How to use microsoft/Florence-2-large with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("image-text-to-text", model="microsoft/Florence-2-large", trust_remote_code=True)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForImageTextToText

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("microsoft/Florence-2-large", trust_remote_code=True)
model = AutoModelForImageTextToText.from_pretrained("microsoft/Florence-2-large", trust_remote_code=True)

pip install vllm
# Start the vLLM server:
vllm serve "microsoft/Florence-2-large"
# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/v1/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "microsoft/Florence-2-large",
		"prompt": "Once upon a time,",
		"max_tokens": 512,
		"temperature": 0.5
	}'

Use Docker

docker model run hf.co/microsoft/Florence-2-large

SGLang

Anyone deal with it？

Yes, I had the same problem and solved it.
First, you need to check your Python version (in my case, it was Python 3.6). I had to install Python 3.10.
After that, I reinstalled PyTorch, Transformers, and other required libraries with the latest versions, and everything ran without any issues.
