<a href="https://huggingface.co/microsoft/kosmos-2-patch14-224/resolve/main/annotated_snowman.jpg" target="_blank"><figure><img src="https://huggingface.co/microsoft/kosmos-2-patch14-224/resolve/main/annotated_snowman.jpg" width="384"><figcaption><b>[An image of a snowman warming himself by a fire.]</b></figcaption></figure></a>


This Hub repository contains a HuggingFace's `transformers` implementation of [the original Kosmos-2 model](https://github.com/microsoft/unilm/tree/master/kosmos-2) from Microsoft.

## How to Get Started with the Model

Use the code below to get started with the model.

```python
import requests

from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForVision2Seq


model = AutoModelForVision2Seq.from_pretrained("microsoft/kosmos-2-patch14-224")
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("microsoft/kosmos-2-patch14-224")

prompt = "<grounding>An image of"

url = "https://huggingface.co/microsoft/kosmos-2-patch14-224/resolve/main/snowman.png"
image = Image.open(requests.get(url, stream=True).raw)

# The original Kosmos-2 demo saves the image first then reload it. For some images, this will give slightly different image input and change the generation outputs.
image.save("new_image.jpg")
image = Image.open("new_image.jpg")

inputs = processor(text=prompt, images=image, return_tensors="pt", add_eos_token=False)

generated_ids = model.generate(
    pixel_values=inputs["pixel_values"],
    input_ids=inputs["input_ids"],
    attention_mask=inputs["attention_mask"],
    image_embeds=None,
    image_embeds_position_mask=inputs["image_embeds_position_mask"],
    use_cache=True,
    max_new_tokens=128,
)
generated_text = processor.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]

# Specify `cleanup_and_extract=False` in order to see the raw model generation.
processed_text = processor.post_process_generation(generated_text, cleanup_and_extract=False)

print(processed_text)
# `<grounding> An image of<phrase> a snowman</phrase><object><patch_index_0044><patch_index_0863></object> warming himself by<phrase> a fire</phrase><object><patch_index_0005><patch_index_0911></object>.`

# By default, the generated  text is cleanup and the entities are extracted.
processed_text, entities = processor.post_process_generation(generated_text)

print(processed_text)
# `An image of a snowman warming himself by a fire.`

print(entities)
# `[('a snowman', (12, 21), [(0.390625, 0.046875, 0.984375, 0.828125)]), ('a fire', (41, 47), [(0.171875, 0.015625, 0.484375, 0.890625)])]`

```


## Tasks

This model is capable of performing different tasks through changing the prompts.

First, let's define a function to run a prompt.

```python
import requests

from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForVision2Seq


model = AutoModelForVision2Seq.from_pretrained("microsoft/kosmos-2-patch14-224")
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("microsoft/kosmos-2-patch14-224")

url = "https://huggingface.co/microsoft/kosmos-2-patch14-224/resolve/main/snowman.png"
image = Image.open(requests.get(url, stream=True).raw)

def run_example(prompt):

    inputs = processor(text=prompt, images=image, return_tensors="pt", add_eos_token=False)
    generated_ids = model.generate(
      pixel_values=inputs["pixel_values"],
      input_ids=inputs["input_ids"],
      attention_mask=inputs["attention_mask"],
      image_embeds=None,
      image_embeds_position_mask=inputs["image_embeds_position_mask"],
      use_cache=True,
      max_new_tokens=128,
    )
    generated_text = processor.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
    _processed_text = processor.post_process_generation(generated_text, cleanup_and_extract=False)
    processed_text, entities = processor.post_process_generation(generated_text)

    print(processed_text)
    print(entities)
    print(_processed_text)
```

Here are the tasks `Kosmos-2` could perform:

### Multimodal Grounding

#### • Phrase Grounding
```python
prompt = "<grounding><phrase> a snowman</phrase>"
run_example(prompt)

# a snowman is warming himself by the fire
# [('a snowman', (0, 9), [(0.390625, 0.046875, 0.984375, 0.828125)]), ('the fire', (32, 40), [(0.203125, 0.015625, 0.453125, 0.859375)])]

# <grounding><phrase> a snowman</phrase><object><patch_index_0044><patch_index_0863></object> is warming himself by<phrase> the fire</phrase><object><patch_index_0006><patch_index_0878></object>
```

#### • Referring Expression Comprehension
```python
prompt = "<grounding><phrase> a snowman next to a fire</phrase>"
run_example(prompt)

# a snowman next to a fire
# [('a snowman next to a fire', (0, 24), [(0.390625, 0.046875, 0.984375, 0.828125)])]

# <grounding><phrase> a snowman next to a fire</phrase><object><patch_index_0044><patch_index_0863></object>
```

### Multimodal Referring

#### • Referring expression generation
```python
prompt = "<grounding><phrase> It</phrase><object><patch_index_0044><patch_index_0863></object> is"
run_example(prompt)

# It is snowman in a hat and scarf
# [('It', (0, 2), [(0.390625, 0.046875, 0.984375, 0.828125)])]

# <grounding><phrase> It</phrase><object><patch_index_0044><patch_index_0863></object> is snowman in a hat and scarf
```

### Perception-Language Tasks

#### • Grounded VQA
```python
prompt = "<grounding> Question: What is special about this image? Answer:"
run_example(prompt)

# Question: What is special about this image? Answer: The image features a snowman sitting by a campfire in the snow.
# [('a snowman', (71, 80), [(0.390625, 0.046875, 0.984375, 0.828125)]), ('a campfire', (92, 102), [(0.109375, 0.640625, 0.546875, 0.984375)])]

# <grounding> Question: What is special about this image? Answer: The image features<phrase> a snowman</phrase><object><patch_index_0044><patch_index_0863></object> sitting by<phrase> a campfire</phrase><object><patch_index_0643><patch_index_1009></object> in the snow.
```

#### • Grounded VQA with multimodal referring via bounding boxes
```python
prompt = "<grounding> Question: Where is<phrase> the fire</phrase><object><patch_index_0005><patch_index_0911></object> next to? Answer:"
run_example(prompt)

# Question: Where is the fire next to? Answer: Near the snowman.
# [('the fire', (19, 27), [(0.171875, 0.015625, 0.484375, 0.890625)]), ('the snowman', (50, 61), [(0.390625, 0.046875, 0.984375, 0.828125)])]

# <grounding> Question: Where is<phrase> the fire</phrase><object><patch_index_0005><patch_index_0911></object> next to? Answer: Near<phrase> the snowman</phrase><object><patch_index_0044><patch_index_0863></object>.
```

### Grounded Image captioning

#### • Brief

```python
prompt = "<grounding> An image of"
run_example(prompt)

# An image of a snowman warming himself by a campfire.
# [('a snowman', (12, 21), [(0.390625, 0.046875, 0.984375, 0.828125)]), ('a campfire', (41, 51), [(0.109375, 0.640625, 0.546875, 0.984375)])]

# <grounding> An image of<phrase> a snowman</phrase><object><patch_index_0044><patch_index_0863></object> warming himself by<phrase> a campfire</phrase><object><patch_index_0643><patch_index_1009></object>.
```

#### • Detailed

```python
prompt = "<grounding> Describe this image in detail:"
run_example(prompt)

# Describe this image in detail: The image features a snowman sitting by a campfire in the snow. He is wearing a hat, scarf, and gloves, with a pot nearby and a cup nearby. The snowman appears to be enjoying the warmth of the fire, and it appears to have a warm and cozy atmosphere.
# [('a campfire', (71, 81), [(0.171875, 0.015625, 0.484375, 0.984375)]), ('a hat', (109, 114), [(0.515625, 0.046875, 0.828125, 0.234375)]), ('scarf', (116, 121), [(0.515625, 0.234375, 0.890625, 0.578125)]), ('gloves', (127, 133), [(0.515625, 0.390625, 0.640625, 0.515625)]), ('a pot', (140, 145), [(0.078125, 0.609375, 0.265625, 0.859375)]), ('a cup', (157, 162), [(0.890625, 0.765625, 0.984375, 0.984375)])]

# <grounding> Describe this image in detail: The image features a snowman sitting by<phrase> a campfire</phrase><object><patch_index_0005><patch_index_1007></object> in the snow. He is wearing<phrase> a hat</phrase><object><patch_index_0048><patch_index_0250></object>,<phrase> scarf</phrase><object><patch_index_0240><patch_index_0604></object>, and<phrase> gloves</phrase><object><patch_index_0400><patch_index_0532></object>, with<phrase> a pot</phrase><object><patch_index_0610><patch_index_0872></object> nearby and<phrase> a cup</phrase><object><patch_index_0796><patch_index_1023></object> nearby.
