Install

Note:The Vary-toy is based on Vary, if you install the Vary, you can skip some steps, e.g., 3.

  1. Clone this repository and navigate to the Vary folder
git clone https://github.com/Ucas-HaoranWei/Vary-toy.git
cd /path/to/vary
  1. Install Package
conda create -n vary python=3.10 -y
conda activate vary
pip install e .
  1. Install Flash-Attention
pip install ninja
pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation

Vary Weights

  • Download the Vary-toy weights here.
  • Download the CLIP-VIT-L here.

Demo

  1. Update the CLIP-VIT path in the codes (/cache/vit-large-patch14/) to your path.

python vary/demo/run_qwen_vary.py  --model-name  /vary/model/path/ --image-file /an/image/file.png

Discussion

Vary-toy is not a toy, and we have designed two excellent models based on it, one is Vary-document (specifically for document/pdf processing), and the other is Vary-plot for chart analysis. You can see their amazing performance here Vary-family.
