How to use lightonai/LightOnOCR-2-1B with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("image-text-to-text", model="lightonai/LightOnOCR-2-1B")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("lightonai/LightOnOCR-2-1B")
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained("lightonai/LightOnOCR-2-1B")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(processor.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

Regarding reasoning capability on image

#24

by Ajayan - opened Feb 3

Discussion

Ajayan

Feb 3

Does the model supports reasoning based on image like suppose we have image on which there are encirclement/markings and different measures , whether the model having reasoning capability as well to interpret this marking and only extract the desired data from the image
Thanks!

Ajayan changed discussion title from Regarding reasong on image to Regarding reasoning capability on image Feb 3
