This model, with 2 billion parameters, excels in tasks such as image captioning, visual question answering (VQA), and document understanding, while maintaining efficiency for real-world applications. The Mississippi-2B model builds on the strong foundations of our H2O-Danube language models, now extended to integrate vision and language tasks. It competes with larger models across various benchmarks, offering a versatile and scalable solution for document AI, OCR, and multimodal reasoning.
