Introduction

This is the github repository of LION : Empowering Multimodal Large Language Model with Dual-Level Visual Knowledge. In this work, we enhance MLLMs by integrating fine-grained spatial-aware visual knowledge and high-level semantic visual evidence, boosting capabilities and alleviating hallucinations.

The framework of the proposed LION model:

Installation

Download

git clone https://github.com/JiuTian-VL/JiuTian-LION.git
cd JiuTian-LION

Environment

conda create -n LION python=3.12
conda activate LION
conda install pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

Checkpoints

Version Checkpoint
LION-FlanT5-XL daybreaksly/LION-FlanT5-XL
LION-FlanT5-XXL daybreaksly/LION-FlanT5-XXL

Usage

Prepare models

  1. Download the pre-trained vit model eva_vit_g.
  2. Download the pre-trained RAM model ram_swin_large_14m.
  3. Download the pre-trained FlanT5 model FlanT5-XL.
  4. Download the pre-trained BERT model bert-base-uncased
  5. Fill in the paths to these models into the corresponding locations in the config file configs\models\lion_flant5xl.yaml

Inference

We provide inference examples for Image-Level and Region-Level tasks in playground.ipynb.

Evaluation results

For image-level tasks, we focus on image captioning and Visual Question Answering (VQA). For region-level tasks, we evaluate LION on three REC datasets including RefCOCO, RefCOCO+ and RefCOCOg. The results, detailed in Table 1~2, highlight LION's superior performance compared to baseline models.

Score

Image-level Region-level

We further evaluate LION on a object hallucination benchmark(POPE) and the most popular MLLM benchmark (MMBench). The results in Table 1~2 show that LION has strong performances across various skills and also demonstrates a strong resistance to hallucinations, particularly in popular and adversarial settings in POPE.
