## Model Details

Today (September 17th, 2024), we introduce [NVLM 1.0](https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.11402), a family of frontier-class multimodal large language models (LLMs) that achieve state-of-the-art results on vision-language tasks, rivaling the leading proprietary models (e.g., GPT-4o) and open-access models (e.g., Llama 3-V 405B and InternVL 2). Remarkably, NVLM 1.0 shows improved text-only performance over its LLM backbone after multimodal training. We are open-sourcing the model weights and code for the community.

## Other Resources
[Inference Code (HF)](https://huggingface.co/nvidia/NVLM-1.0-D-72B/tree/main)   [Training Code (Coming soon)]()   [Website](https://nvlm-project.github.io/)   [Paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.11402)

## Benchmark Results
We train our model with legacy [Megatron-LM](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Megatron-LM/tree/main/megatron/legacy) and adapt the codebase to Huggingface for model hosting, reproducibility, and inference.
We observe numerical differences between the Megatron and Huggingface codebases, which are within the expected range of variation. 
We provide the results from both the Huggingface codebase and the Megatron codebase for reproducibility and comparison with other models.

Results (as of September 17th, 2024) in the multimodal benchmarks are as follows:

## How to use

When converting Megatron checkpoint to Huggingface, we adapt [InternVL codebase](https://huggingface.co/OpenGVLab/InternVL2-Llama3-76B) to support model loading and multi-GPU inference in HF. For training, please refer to [Megatron-LM (Coming soon)]().

### Prepare the environment

We provide a docker build file in the [Dockerfile](Dockerfile) for reproduction. 

The docker image is based on `nvcr.io/nvidia/pytorch:23.09-py3`. 

*Note: We observe that different transformer versions / CUDA versions / docker versions can lead to slight benchmark number differences. We recommend using the Dockerfile above for precise reproduction.*

### Model loading

```python
import torch
from transformers import AutoModel

path = "nvidia/NVLM-D-72B"
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(
    path,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    low_cpu_mem_usage=True,
    use_flash_attn=False,
    trust_remote_code=True).eval()
```

### Multiple GPUs

The model can be loaded on multiple GPUs as follows:

```python
import torch
import math
from transformers import AutoModel

def split_model():
    device_map = {}
    world_size = torch.cuda.device_count()
    num_layers = 80
    # Since the first GPU will be used for ViT, treat it as half a GPU.
    num_layers_per_gpu = math.ceil(num_layers / (world_size - 0.5))
    num_layers_per_gpu = [num_layers_per_gpu] * world_size
    num_layers_per_gpu[0] = math.ceil(num_layers_per_gpu[0] * 0.5)
    layer_cnt = 0
    for i, num_layer in enumerate(num_layers_per_gpu):
        for j in range(num_layer):
            device_map[f'language_model.model.layers.{layer_cnt}'] = i
            layer_cnt += 1
    device_map['vision_model'] = 0
    device_map['mlp1'] = 0
    device_map['language_model.model.tok_embeddings'] = 0
    device_map['language_model.model.embed_tokens'] = 0
    device_map['language_model.output'] = 0
    device_map['language_model.model.norm'] = 0
    device_map['language_model.lm_head'] = 0
    device_map[f'language_model.model.layers.{num_layers - 1}'] = 0

    return device_map

path = "nvidia/NVLM-D-72B"
device_map = split_model()
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(
    path,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    low_cpu_mem_usage=True,
    use_flash_attn=False,
    trust_remote_code=True,
    device_map=device_map).eval()
```
