💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

LLaVA removes the friction of getting useful answers from images by turning visual understanding into a conversational experience you can query directly.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-turn image chat: Ask follow-up questions about the same image while preserving conversational context.
  • Visual question answering (VQA): Answer questions about objects, scenes, and relationships visible in an image.
  • Visual instruction following: Follow detailed prompts for captioning, descriptions, and document-like image understanding.

Quick Start

Use the llava model CLI to send an image file and a question, then read back the model’s visual answer.

FAQPage Schema
How do I answer questions about objects in an image using visual question answering?

Visual question answering identifies objects and scenes in an image by processing conversational queries. You send an image file and a question to the model, which analyzes the visual content and returns a text-based answer about the specific relationships or items visible.

Can I have a multi-turn image chat to ask follow-up questions about the same picture?

Multi-turn image chat allows you to ask follow-up questions about the same picture while preserving conversational context. The model maintains the dialogue history, enabling continuous visual instruction following without needing to re-upload or re-explain the image content.

Do I need a CLIP vision encoder to extract information from document images?

You need a CLIP vision encoder paired with a LLaMA or Vicuna-family language model to extract information from document images. This multimodal setup supports image preprocessing, prompt construction with an image token, and inference via a multimodal generate call.

What's the best way to follow instructions for describing scenes in photos?

To follow instructions for describing scenes in photos, use visual instruction following capabilities. This mechanism processes detailed prompts alongside the image to generate captions, extract information, or provide comprehensive descriptions of the visual content and object relationships.

Does visual question answering work with image chat for extracting text from document images?

Visual question answering works with image chat to extract text from document images by leveraging a vision-language model. It supports document-like image understanding through instruction following, allowing you to query specific text or data points within the image conversationally.

Why does multimodal generate call require image preprocessing and prompt construction?

A multimodal generate call requires image preprocessing and prompt construction with an image token to properly align visual features from the CLIP encoder with the language model. This ensures accurate visual understanding and instruction following during inference.
