The model is by no means a state-of-the-art model, but nevertheless
produces reasonable image captioning results. It was mainly fine-tuned
as a proof-of-concept for the đ¤ FlaxVisionEncoderDecoder Framework.
The model can be used as follows:
In PyTorch
python
import torch
import requests
from PIL import Image
from transformers import ViTFeatureExtractor, AutoTokenizer, VisionEncoderDecoderModel
loc = "ydshieh/vit-gpt2-coco-en"
feature_extractor = ViTFeatureExtractor.from_pretrained(loc)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(loc)
model = VisionEncoderDecoderModel.from_pretrained(loc)
model.eval()
def predict(image):
pixel_values = feature_extractor(images=image, return_tensors="pt").pixel_values
with torch.no_grad():
output_ids = model.generate(pixel_values, max_length=16, num_beams=4, return_dict_in_generate=True).sequences
preds = tokenizer.batch_decode(output_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
preds = [pred.strip() for pred in preds]
return preds
# We will verify our results on an image of cute cats
url = "http://images.cocodataset.org/val2017/000000039769.jpg"
with Image.open(requests.get(url, stream=True).raw) as image:
preds = predict(image)
print(preds)
# should produce
# ['a cat laying on top of a couch next to another cat']
In Flax
python
import jax
import requests
from PIL import Image
from transformers import ViTFeatureExtractor, AutoTokenizer, FlaxVisionEncoderDecoderModel
loc = "ydshieh/vit-gpt2-coco-en"
feature_extractor = ViTFeatureExtractor.from_pretrained(loc)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(loc)
model = FlaxVisionEncoderDecoderModel.from_pretrained(loc)
gen_kwargs = {"max_length": 16, "num_beams": 4}
# This takes sometime when compiling the first time, but the subsequent inference will be much faster
@jax.jit
def generate(pixel_values):
output_ids = model.generate(pixel_values, **gen_kwargs).sequences
return output_ids
def predict(image):
pixel_values = feature_extractor(images=image, return_tensors="np").pixel_values
output_ids = generate(pixel_values)
preds = tokenizer.batch_decode(output_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
preds = [pred.strip() for pred in preds]
return preds
# We will verify our results on an image of cute cats
url = "http://images.cocodataset.org/val2017/000000039769.jpg"
with Image.open(requests.get(url, stream=True).raw) as image:
preds = predict(image)
print(preds)
# should produce
# ['a cat laying on top of a couch next to another cat']
