Llama-3.1-Nemotron-Nano-VL-8B-v1-NIM-microservice

Versatile vision-language model for querying and summarizing images and video, deployable from data center to edge (via AWQ 4-bit TinyChat), with key findings that interleaved image-text, LLM unfreezing, and re-blended text-only data are essential for stroLlama Nemotron Nano VL is a leading document intelligence vision language model (VLMs) that enables the ability to query and summarize images and video from the physical or virtual world. Llama Nemotron Nano VL is deployable in the data center, cloud and at the edge, including Jetson Orin and laptop by AWQ 4bit quantization through TinyChat framework. We find: (1) image-text pairs are not enough, interleaved image-text is essential; (2) unfreezing LLM during interleaved image-text pre-training enables in-context learning; (3)re-blending text-only instruction data is crucial to boost both VLM and text-only performance. This model was trained on commercial images and videos for all three stages of training and supports single image and video inference. Llama-3.1-Nemotron-Nano-VL-8B-V1 is available as an NVIDIA NIM™ microservice, part of NVIDIA AI Enterprise . NVIDIA NIM offers prebuilt containers for large language models (LLMs) that can be used to develop chatbots, content analyzers—or any application that needs to understand and generate human language. Each NIM consists of a container and a model and uses a CUDA-accelerated runtime for all NVIDIA GPUs, with special optimizations available for many configurations. NVIDIA AI Enterprise
