# Qwen2.5-VL
[Qwen2.5-VL](https://huggingface.co/papers/2502.13923) is a multimodal vision-language model, available in 3B, 7B, and 72B parameters, pretrained on 4.1T tokens. The model introduces window attention in the ViT encoder to accelerate training and inference, dynamic FPS sampling on the spatial and temporal dimensions for better video understanding across different sampling rates, and an upgraded MRoPE (multi-resolutional rotary positional encoding) mechanism to better capture and learn temporal dynamics.
You can find all the original Qwen2.5-VL checkpoints under the [Qwen2.5-VL](https://huggingface.co/collections/Qwen/qwen25-vl-6795ffac22b334a837c0f9a5) collection.

> Click on the Qwen2.5-VL models in the right sidebar for more examples of how to apply Qwen2.5-VL to different vision and language tasks.
The example below demonstrates how to generate text based on an image with [`Pipeline`] or the [`AutoModel`] class.
```py
import torch
from transformers import pipeline
pipe = pipeline(
task="image-text-to-text",
model="Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct",
device=0,
torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
)
messages = [
{
"role": "user",
"content": [
{
"type": "image",
"url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/pipeline-cat-chonk.jpeg",
},
{ "type": "text", "text": "Describe this image."},
]
}
]
pipe(text=messages,max_new_tokens=20, return_full_text=False)
```
```py
import torch
from transformers import Qwen2_5_VLForConditionalGeneration, AutoProcessor
model = Qwen2_5_VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
"Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct",
torch_dtype=torch.float16,
device_map="auto",
attn_implementation="sdpa"
)
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct")
messages = [
{
"role":"user",
"content":[
{
"type":"image",
"url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/pipeline-cat-chonk.jpeg"
},
{
"type":"text",
"text":"Describe this image."
}
]
}
]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
messages,
add_generation_prompt=True,
tokenize=True,
return_dict=True,
return_tensors="pt"
).to("cuda")
generated_ids = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=128)
generated_ids_trimmed = [
out_ids[len(in_ids) :] for in_ids, out_ids in zip(inputs.input_ids, generated_ids)
]
output_text = processor.batch_decode(
generated_ids_trimmed, skip_special_tokens=True, clean_up_tokenization_spaces=False
)
print(output_text)
```
Quantization reduces the memory burden of large models by representing the weights in a lower precision. Refer to the [Quantization](../quantization/overview) overview for more available quantization backends.
The example below uses [torchao](../quantization/torchao) to only quantize the weights to int4.
```python
import torch
from transformers import TorchAoConfig, Qwen2_5_VLForConditionalGeneration, AutoProcessor
quantization_config = TorchAoConfig("int4_weight_only", group_size=128)
model = Qwen2_5_VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
"Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct",
torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
device_map="auto",
quantization_config=quantization_config
)
```
### Notes
- Use Qwen2.5-VL for video inputs by setting `"type": "video"` as shown below.
```python
conversation = [
{
"role": "user",
"content": [
{"type": "video", "path": "/path/to/video.mp4"},
{"type": "text", "text": "What happened in the video?"},
],
}
]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
conversation,
video_fps=1,
add_generation_prompt=True,
tokenize=True,
return_dict=True,
return_tensors="pt"
).to(model.device)
# Inference: Generation of the output
output_ids = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=128)
generated_ids = [output_ids[len(input_ids):] for input_ids, output_ids in zip(inputs.input_ids, output_ids)]
output_text = processor.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True, clean_up_tokenization_spaces=True)
print(output_text)
```
- Use Qwen2.5-VL for a mixed batch of inputs (images, videos, text). Add labels when handling multiple images or videos for better reference
as show below.
```python
import torch
from transformers import Qwen2_5_VLForConditionalGeneration, AutoProcessor
model = Qwen2_5_VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
"Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct",
torch_dtype=torch.float16,
device_map="auto",
attn_implementation="sdpa"
)
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct")
conversation = [
{
"role": "user",
"content": [
{"type": "image"},
{"type": "text", "text": "Hello, how are you?"}
]
},
{
"role": "assistant",
"content": "I'm doing well, thank you for asking. How can I assist you today?"
},
{
"role": "user",
"content": [
{"type": "text", "text": "Can you describe these images and video?"},
{"type": "image"},
{"type": "image"},
{"type": "video"},
{"type": "text", "text": "These are from my vacation."}
]
},
{
"role": "assistant",
"content": "I'd be happy to describe the images and video for you. Could you please provide more context about your vacation?"
},
{
"role": "user",
"content": "It was a trip to the mountains. Can you see the details in the images and video?"
}
]
# default:
prompt_without_id = processor.apply_chat_template(conversation, add_generation_prompt=True)
# Excepted output: '<|im_start|>system\nYou are a helpful assistant.<|im_end|>\n<|im_start|>user\n<|vision_start|><|image_pad|><|vision_end|>Hello, how are you?<|im_end|>\n<|im_start|>assistant\nI'm doing well, thank you for asking.

# add ids
prompt_with_id = processor.apply_chat_template(conversation, add_generation_prompt=True, add_vision_id=True)

```
- Use the `min_pixels` and `max_pixels` parameters in [`AutoProcessor`] to set the resolution.
```python
min_pixels = 224*224
max_pixels = 2048*2048
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct", min_pixels=min_pixels, max_pixels=max_pixels)
```
Higher resolution can require more compute whereas reducing the resolution can save memory as follows:
```python
min_pixels = 256*28*28
max_pixels = 1024*28*28
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct", min_pixels=min_pixels, max_pixels=max_pixels)
```
