This is a minimal example to launch a LLaVA-RLHF demo. In order to download the model checkpoint, please check this Hugging Face model hub link.
To run our demo, you need to install the LLaVA package. Please follow the instructions in the original repository to install LLaVA.
To launch a Gradio demo locally, please run the following commands one by one. If you plan to launch multiple model workers to compare between different checkpoints, you only need to launch the controller and the web server ONCE.
python -m llava.serve.controller --host 0.0.0.0 --port 10000
python -m llava.serve.gradio_web_server --controller http://localhost:10000 --model-list-mode reload
You just launched the Gradio web interface. Now, you can open the web interface with the URL printed on the screen. You may notice that there is no model in the model list. Do not worry, as we have not launched any model worker yet. It will be automatically updated when you launch a model worker.
This is the actual worker that performs the inference on the GPU. Each worker is responsible for a single model specified in --model-path
.
export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0
python -m model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 \
--controller http://localhost:10000 \
--port 40000 \
--worker http://localhost:40000 \
--load-bf16 \
--model-name llava-rlhf-13b-v1.5-336 \
--model-path /path/to/LLaVA-RLHF-13b-v1.5-336/sft_model \
--lora-path /path/to/LLaVA-RLHF-13b-v1.5-336/rlhf_lora_adapter_model
Wait until the process finishes loading the model and you see "Uvicorn running on ...". Now, refresh your Gradio web UI, and you will see the model you just launched in the model list.
You can launch as many workers as you want, and compare between different model checkpoints in the same Gradio interface. Please keep the --controller
the same, and modify the --port
and --worker
to a different port number for each worker.
export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1
python -m model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 \
--controller http://localhost:10000 \
--port <different from 40000, say 40001> \
--worker http://localhost:<change accordingly, i.e. 40001> \
--load-bf16 \
--model-name llava-rlhf-13b-v1.5-336 \
--model-path /path/to/LLaVA-RLHF-13b-v1.5-336/sft_model \
--lora-path /path/to/LLaVA-RLHF-13b-v1.5-336/rlhf_lora_adapter_model
If you are using an Apple device with an M1 or M2 chip, you can specify the mps device by using the --device
flag: --device mps
.
If the VRAM of your GPU is less than 24GB (e.g., RTX 3090, RTX 4090, etc.), you may try running it with multiple GPUs. Our latest code base will automatically try to use multiple GPUs if you have more than one GPU. You can specify which GPUs to use with CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES
. Below is an example of running with the first two GPUs.
export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1
python -m model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 \
--controller http://localhost:10000 \
--port 40000 \
--worker http://localhost:40000 \
--load-bf16 \
--model-name llava-rlhf-13b-v1.5-336 \
--model-path /path/to/LLaVA-RLHF-13b-v1.5-336/sft_model \
--lora-path /path/to/LLaVA-RLHF-13b-v1.5-336/rlhf_lora_adapter_model
