This paper introduces BLIP-3, an open framework for developing Large Multimodal Models (LMMs). The framework comprises meticulously curated datasets, a training recipe, model archi…
xGen-MM-Vid (BLIP-3-Video): You Only Need 32 Tokens to Represent a Video Even in VLMs
Michael S. Ryoo, Honglu Zhou, Shrikant Kendre +9
We present xGen-MM-Vid (BLIP-3-Video): a multimodal language model for videos, particularly designed to efficiently capture temporal information over multiple frames. BLIP-3-Video…
Democratizing AI: Open-source Scalable LLM Training on GPU-based Supercomputers
Siddharth Singh, Prajwal Singhania, Aditya Ranjan +9
Training and fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) with hundreds of billions to trillions of parameters requires tens of thousands of GPUs, and a highly scalable software stack.…
Exploiting Sparsity for Long Context Inference: Million Token Contexts on Commodity GPUs
Ryan Synk, Monte Hoover, John Kirchenbauer +6
There is growing demand for performing inference with hundreds of thousands of input tokens on trained transformer models. Inference at this extreme scale demands significant compu…
