# Use it with Transformers

```python
from transformers import Qwen2VLForConditionalGeneration, AutoTokenizer, AutoProcessor
from qwen_vl_utils import process_vision_info

# default: Load the model on the available device(s)
model = Qwen2VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
    "prithivMLmods/LatexMind-2B-Codec", torch_dtype="auto", device_map="auto"
)

# We recommend enabling flash_attention_2 for better acceleration and memory saving, especially in multi-image and video scenarios.
# model = Qwen2VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
#     "prithivMLmods/LatexMind-2B-Codec-GGUF",
#     torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
#     attn_implementation="flash_attention_2",
#     device_map="auto",
# )

# default processer
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("prithivMLmods/Qwen2-VL-OCR-2B-Instruct")

messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {
                "type": "image",
                "image": "https://qianwen-res.oss-cn-beijing.aliyuncs.com/Qwen-VL/assets/demo.jpeg",
            },
            {"type": "text", "text": "Describe this image."},
        ],
    }
]

# Preparation for inference
text = processor.apply_chat_template(
    messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True
)
image_inputs, video_inputs = process_vision_info(messages)
inputs = processor(
    text=[text],
    images=image_inputs,
    videos=video_inputs,
    padding=True,
    return_tensors="pt",
)
inputs = inputs.to("cuda")

# Inference: Generation of the output
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)
```
# Buf
```python
    buffer = ""
    for new_text in streamer:
        buffer += new_text
        # Remove <|im_end|> or similar tokens from the output
        buffer = buffer.replace("<|im_end|>", "")
        yield buffer
```

# Intended Use

**LatexMind-2B-Codec-GGUF** is designed for tasks that require **image-based text recognition**, **math equation extraction**, and **multi-modal understanding**. It is particularly useful in the following scenarios:  

 **Optical Character Recognition (OCR)** – Extracting printed and handwritten text from images, documents, and scanned pages.  
 **Math Expression Recognition** – Converting mathematical notations into structured **LaTeX format** for further computation and documentation.  
 **Image-to-Text Conversion** – Generating accurate descriptions for text-rich and math-heavy images.  
 **Document and Academic Processing** – Assisting researchers, students, and professionals in digitizing handwritten notes and extracting structured content from books, PDFs, and whiteboards.  
 **Automated Educational Support** – Enabling AI-powered tutors, content summarization, and interactive learning for subjects involving complex equations.  
 **Multi-Language OCR** – Recognizing text inside images across multiple languages, including English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, and various European languages.  
 **Video-Based Question Answering** – Understanding long-duration videos for content summarization, question answering, and structured data extraction.  

# Limitations

Despite its capabilities, **LatexMind-2B-Codec-GGUF** has some inherent limitations:  

 **Handwritten Text Accuracy** – While it can recognize handwritten equations, performance may degrade with highly unstructured or messy handwriting.  
 **Complex LaTeX Formatting** – The model may struggle with deeply nested or ambiguous LaTeX expressions, requiring manual corrections for precise formatting.  
 **Low-Resolution Images** – Extracting accurate text from blurry or low-resolution images can lead to misinterpretations or OCR errors.  
 **Contextual Understanding in Multi-Step Equations** – While it recognizes math expressions, solving multi-step problems autonomously may be limited.  
 **Limited Support for Rare Mathematical Notations** – Some specialized or domain-specific symbols may not be recognized with high accuracy.  
 **Processing Speed for Large Documents** – Performance may slow down when handling extremely large documents or dense mathematical content in real-time applications.  
 **Language-Specific OCR Variability** – While it supports multiple languages, OCR accuracy may vary depending on the script complexity and font style.
