Uses

Direct Use

This model can be directly used for image-text matching tasks, such as searching for relevant images based on a textual query or generating captions for images.

Downstream Use

The model can be further fine-tuned for specific tasks such as image classification with text guidance, visual question answering, or any other task that benefits from multi-modal inputs.

Out-of-Scope Use

This model is not suitable for tasks unrelated to image and text processing. It may also not perform well on non-English texts or images outside the scope of the fine-tuning data.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

As with most large models, this model may inherit biases present in the pretraining datasets. Users should be cautious when deploying this model in sensitive applications, particularly where fairness and bias are of concern. Additionally, the model's performance might degrade on data that is significantly different from the training data, especially in terms of cultural, linguistic, or visual context.

Recommendations

Users should validate the model's performance on their specific use case, particularly looking for biases in the model's predictions. Additional fine-tuning with a carefully curated dataset may be necessary to mitigate biases. It's also recommended to monitor the model's outputs regularly to ensure its predictions remain relevant and unbiased.

How to Get Started with the Model

from transformers import VisionTextDualEncoderModel, VisionTextDualEncoderProcessor

# Load the model and processor
model = VisionTextDualEncoderModel.from_pretrained("your-username/clip-roberta-finetuned")
processor = VisionTextDualEncoderProcessor.from_pretrained("your-username/clip-roberta-finetuned")

# Example usage
inputs = processor(text=["a photo of a cat"], images=["path_to_image.jpg"], return_tensors="pt", padding=True)
outputs = model(**inputs)
logits_per_image = outputs.logits_per_image

Training Details

Training Data

The model was fine-tuned on a custom dataset containing paired image-text data, focusing on diverse skin tones and various diseases.
