👀 Overview

Long-VITA is a strong long-context visual language model and supports more than 1 million tokens.

• Long-VITA-1M weights are trained on Ascend NPUs with MindSpeed. The original weight is at https://huggingface.co/VITA-MLLM/Long-VITA-1M.

• We also implemented Long-VITA on Megatron with the Transformer Engine to infer and evaluate on Nvidia GPUs. The converted weight is at https://huggingface.co/VITA-MLLM/Long-VITA-1M_MG.

• We also implemented Long-VITA on DeepSpeed with the Huggingface Transformers to infer and evaluate on Nvidia GPUs. The converted weight is at https://huggingface.co/VITA-MLLM/Long-VITA-1M_HF.
