Libraries

How to use Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("image-text-to-text", model="Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForImageTextToText

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct")
model = AutoModelForImageTextToText.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(processor.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

transformers has used Qwen2VLImageProcessor as Qwen2.5-VL's image processor. We need to update accordingly (see https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/36164#issuecomment-2658902781)

Hi @Isotr0py ,

You have broken it! I'm getting this error trying to use it

Unrecognized image processor in Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct. Should have a `image_processor_type` key in its preprocessor_config.json of config.json, or one of the following `model_type` keys in its config.json: align, aria, beit, bit, blip, blip-2, bridgetower, chameleon, chinese_clip, clip, clipseg, conditional_detr, convnext, convnextv2, cvt, data2vec-vision, deformable_detr, deit, depth_anything, depth_pro, deta, detr, dinat, dinov2, donut-swin, dpt, efficientformer, efficientnet, flava, focalnet, fuyu, git, glpn, got_ocr2, grounding-dino, groupvit, hiera, idefics, idefics2, idefics3, ijepa, imagegpt, instructblip, instructblipvideo, kosmos-2, layoutlmv2, layoutlmv3, levit, llava, llava_next, llava_next_video, llava_onevision, mask2former, maskformer, mgp-str, mllama, mobilenet_v1, mobilenet_v2, mobilevit, mobilevitv2, nat, nougat, oneformer, owlv2, owlvit, paligemma, perceiver, pix2struct, pixtral, poolformer, pvt, pvt_v2, qwen2_5_vl, qwen2_vl, regnet, resnet, rt_detr, sam, segformer, seggpt, siglip, superglue, swiftformer, swin, swin2sr, swinv2, table-transformer, timesformer, timm_wrapper, tvlt, tvp, udop, upernet, van, videomae, vilt, vipllava, vit, vit_hybrid, vit_mae, vit_msn, vitmatte, xclip, yolos, zoedepth.

manually removing new line in preprocessor_config.json fixes the issue. Please find another option.

@alxgrh You might need to add revision="refs/pr/24" currently when initializing the processor, because this PR hasn't been merged yet.

from transformers import AutoProcessor

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct", revision="refs/pr/24")
print(processor)

Outputs:
