# LLaVA Model Card

## Model details

**Model type:**
LLaVA is an open-source chatbot trained by fine-tuning LLM on multimodal instruction-following data.
It is an auto-regressive language model, based on the transformer architecture.
Base LLM: [mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2](https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2)

**Model date:**
LLaVA-v1.6-Mistral-7B was trained in December 2023.
