## BLIP-base fine-tuned for Image Captioning on High-Level descriptions of Actions

[BLIP](https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.12086) base trained on the [HL dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/michelecafagna26/hl) for **action generation of images**

## Model fine-tuning 🏋️‍

- Trained for 6 epochs
- lr:  5e−5,
- Adam optimizer,
- half-precision (fp16)

## Model in Action 🚀

```python
import requests
from PIL import Image
from transformers import BlipProcessor, BlipForConditionalGeneration

processor = BlipProcessor.from_pretrained("michelecafagna26/blip-base-captioning-ft-hl-actions")
model = BlipForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("michelecafagna26/blip-base-captioning-ft-hl-actions").to("cuda")

img_url = 'https://datasets-server.huggingface.co/assets/michelecafagna26/hl/--/default/train/0/image/image.jpg' 
raw_image = Image.open(requests.get(img_url, stream=True).raw).convert('RGB')


inputs = processor(raw_image, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
pixel_values = inputs.pixel_values

generated_ids = model.generate(pixel_values=pixel_values, max_length=50,
            do_sample=True,
            top_k=120,
            top_p=0.9,
            early_stopping=True,
            num_return_sequences=1)

processor.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
