## Cephalo: Model Summary
Cephalo is a series of multimodal materials science focused vision large language models (V-LLMs) designed to integrate visual and linguistic data for advanced understanding and interaction in human-AI or multi-agent AI frameworks.
A novel aspect of Cephalo's development is the innovative dataset generation method. The extraction process employs advanced algorithms to accurately detect and separate images and their corresponding textual descriptions from complex PDF documents. It involves extracting images and captions from PDFs to create well-reasoned image-text pairs, utilizing large language models (LLMs) for natural language processing. These image-text pairs are then refined and validated through LLM-based NLP processing, ensuring high-quality and contextually relevant data for training.
Cephalo can interpret complex visual scenes and generating contextually accurate language descriptions and answer queries.
The models are developed to process diverse inputs, including images and text, facilitating a broad range of applications such as image captioning, visual question answering, and multimodal content generation. The architecture combines a vision encoder model and an autoregressive transformer to process complex natural language understanding.
Cephalo provides a robust framework for multimodal interaction and understanding, including the development of complex generative pipelines to create 2D and 3D renderings of material microstructures as input for additive manufacturing methods.
## Overview of Models:
### 8b and 4b models
- [Cephalo-Phi-3-vision-128k-4b-alpha](https://huggingface.co/lamm-mit/Cephalo-Phi-3-vision-128k-4b-alpha)
- Base version of the Cephalo-Phi-3 model, trained on GPT-4o distilled image-text data from Wikipedia and scientific papers. Good baseline model, but struggles in longer conversations. Context length of 128,000 tokens.
- [Cephalo-Phi-3-vision-128k-4b-beta](https://huggingface.co/lamm-mit/Cephalo-Phi-3-vision-128k-4b-beta)
- Improved version of the Cephalo-Phi-3 model, trained on GPT-4o and Idefics-2 distilled image-text data from Wikipedia and scientific papers, as well as a large text-only corpus. Provides nuanced responses, with excellent reasoning. Context length of 128,000 tokens.
- [Cephalo-Idefics-2-vision-8b-alpha](https://huggingface.co/lamm-mit/Cephalo-Idefics-2-vision-8b-alpha)
- Trained on Idefics-2 distilled image-text data from Wikipedia and scientific papers. Gives shorter answers, to the point, and generaly accurate.
- [Cephalo-Idefics-2-vision-8b-beta](https://huggingface.co/lamm-mit/Cephalo-Idefics-2-vision-8b-beta)
- Trained on GPT-4o distilled image-text data from Wikipedia and scientific papers. Gives longer answers, with enhanced reasoning. Can struggle with complex concepts.
- [Cephalo-Llava-v1.6-Mistral-8b-alpha](https://huggingface.co/lamm-mit/Cephalo-Llava-v1.6-Mistral-8b-alpha)
- Trained on GPT-4o distilled image-text data from Wikipedia, with low-resolution images. Does not perform well on multiple image queries, and has some inconsistencies in understanding.
### Merged models
- [Cephalo-Idefics-2-vision-10b-alpha](https://huggingface.co/lamm-mit/Cephalo-Idefics-2-vision-10b-alpha)
- Merged model, 32+8=40 layers, checkpoint after first epoch. Trained on GPT-4o distilled image-text data from Wikipedia and scientific papers.
- [Cephalo-Idefics-2-vision-10b-beta](https://huggingface.co/lamm-mit/Cephalo-Idefics-2-vision-10b-beta)
- Merged model, 32+8=40 layers, checkpoint after second epoch. Trained on GPT-4o distilled image-text data from Wikipedia and scientific papers.
