Groma: Grounded Multimodal Assistant

Groma: Localized Visual Tokenization for Grounding Multimodal Large Language Models
Chuofan Ma, Yi Jiang, Jiannan Wu, Zehuan Yuan, Xiaojuan Qi

Groma is an MLLM with exceptional region understanding and visual grounding capabilities. It can take user-defined region inputs (boxes) as well as generate long-form responses that are grounded to visual context.

Groma presents a novel paradigm of grounded MLLMs. (a) LLM for localization (e.g., Kosmos-2, Shikra); (b) External modules for localization (e.g., Lisa); and (c) Visual tokenier for localization (Groma).

Model Weights

To play with Groma, please download the model weights from huggingface.

We additionally provide pretrained checkpoints from intermediate training stages. You can start from any point to customize training.

Training stage	Required checkpoints
Detection pretraining	DINOv2-L
Alignment pretraining	Vicuna-7b-v1.5, Groma-det-pretrain
Instruction finetuning	Groma-7b-pretrain

Prepare Data

We provide instructions to download datasets used at different training stages of Groma, including Groma Instruct, a 30k viusally grounded conversation dataset constructed with GPT-4V. You don't have to download all of them unless you want to train Groma from scratch. Please follow instructions in DATA.md to prepare datasets.

Training stage	Data types	Datasets
Detection pretraining	Detection	COCO, Objects365, OpenImages, V3Det, SA1B
Alignment pretraining	Image caption	ShareGPT-4V-PT
	Grounded caption	Flickr30k Entities
	Region caption	Visual Genome, RefCOCOg
	REC	COCO, RefCOCO/g/+, Grit-20m
Instruction finetuning	Grounded caption	Flickr30k Entities
	Region caption	Visual Genome, RefCOCOg
	REC	COCO, RefCOCO/g/+
	Instruction following	Groma Instruct, LLaVA Instruct, ShareGPT-4V

Training

For detection pretraining, please run

bash scripts/det_pretrain.sh {path_to_dinov2_ckpt} {output_dir}

For alignment pretraining, please run

bash scripts/vl_pretrain.sh {path_to_vicuna_ckpt} {path_to_groma_det_pretrain_ckpt} {output_dir}

For instruction finetuning, please run

bash scripts/vl_finetune.sh {path_to_groma_7b_pretrain_ckpt} {output_dir}

Inference

To test on single image, you can run

python -m groma.eval.run_groma \
    --model-name {path_to_groma_7b_finetune} \
    --image-file {path_to_img} \
    --query {user_query}

Evaluation

For evaluation, please refer to EVAL.md for more details.
