source	VLMEvalKit
domain	Vision, Model_Architecture

Overview

VLM adapter for the Yi-VL model enabling benchmark evaluation in VLMEvalKit.

Description

Yi_VL inherits from BaseModel and wraps the Yi-VL model for use within the VLMEvalKit evaluation framework. It initializes the model and tokenizer/processor from a HuggingFace model path (default: 01-ai/Yi-VL-6B) and provides the generate_inner method for inference. Requires the Yi repository to be cloned and configured with Yi_ROOT path.

Usage

Register in vlmeval/config.py via supported_VLM and invoke through the standard evaluation pipeline.

Code Reference

Source: vlmeval/vlm/yi_vl.py, Lines: L1-156
Import: from vlmeval.vlm.yi_vl import Yi_VL

Signature:

class Yi_VL(BaseModel):
    INSTALL_REQ = True
    INTERLEAVE = False
    def __init__(self, model_path='01-ai/Yi-VL-6B', **kwargs): ...
    def generate_inner(self, message, dataset=None): ...

I/O Contract

Direction	Description
Inputs	message — list of dicts with type (text/image) and value; dataset — optional dataset name for custom prompting
Outputs	generate_inner() returns str (model response text)

Usage Examples

from vlmeval.vlm.yi_vl import Yi_VL
model = Yi_VL(model_path='path/to/model')
response = model.generate_inner(message)
