LLaVA (Large Language-and-Vision Assistant) is an innovative multimodal model that integrates a vision encoder with the Vicuna language model to facilitate comprehensive visual and language understanding. Through end-to-end training, LLaVA exhibits impressive chat capabilities, emulating the multimodal functionalities of models like GPT-4. Notably, LLaVA-1.5 has achieved state-of-the-art performance across 11 benchmarks, utilizing publicly available data and completing training in approximately one day on a single 8-A100 node, surpassing methods that rely on billion-scale datasets. The development of LLaVA involved the creation of a multimodal instruction-following dataset, generated using language-only GPT-4. This dataset comprises 158,000 unique language-image instruction-following samples, including conversations, detailed descriptions, and complex reasoning tasks. This data has been instrumental in training LLaVA to perform a wide array of visual and language tasks effectively.
