Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct (Abliterated)
Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct is a vision-language model from the Qwen 2.5 family, designed for multimodal understanding and generation tasks. This is an abliterated version with safety filters reduced or removed, providing more direct responses. The 7-billion parameter model can process both images and text, making it suitable for visual question answering, image captioning, and multimodal conversational AI.

Usage Examples
Using with Transformers (SafeTensors)
from transformers import Qwen2VLForConditionalGeneration, AutoProcessor
from PIL import Image
import torch
# Load model and processor
model_path = "E:/huggingface/qwen2.5-vl-7b-instruct"
model = Qwen2VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
model_path,
torch_dtype=torch.float16,
device_map="auto"
)
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct")
# Load and process image
image = Image.open("your_image.jpg")
prompt = "Describe this image in detail."
# Prepare inputs
inputs = processor(
text=prompt,
images=image,
return_tensors="pt"
).to("cuda")
# Generate response
output = model.generate(
**inputs,
max_new_tokens=512,
temperature=0.7,
do_sample=True
)
# Decode response
response = processor.decode(output[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)
Using with llama.cpp (GGUF)
# Q4_K_M quantized version (most efficient)

Performance Tips
Optimization Strategies
- Use Quantized Models: Q5_K_M or Q4_K_M formats provide excellent quality with lower VRAM usage
- GPU Offloading: Use
--n-gpu-layersparameter to maximize GPU utilization - Context Management: Keep context length reasonable (2048-4096) for faster inference
- Batch Processing: Process multiple images in batches for efficiency
- Temperature Control: Lower temperature (0.5-0.7) for factual descriptions, higher (0.8-1.0) for creative tasks
Memory Optimization
# Enable memory-efficient attention
model = Qwen2VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
model_path,
torch_dtype=torch.float16,
device_map="auto",
use_flash_attention_2=True, # Requires flash-attn installed
low_cpu_mem_usage=True
)
Image Preprocessing
from PIL import Image
# Resize large images to reduce memory usage
def preprocess_image(image_path, max_size=1024):
image = Image.open(image_path)
image.thumbnail((max_size, max_size), Image.LANCZOS)
return image
Abliteration Notice
โ ๏ธ Important: This is an abliterated model variant with reduced safety restrictions. Key considerations:
- Uncensored Responses: The model may provide responses without typical safety refusals
- Research Use: Primarily intended for research, creative applications, and controlled environments
- Responsibility: Users are responsible for appropriate use and content filtering
- No Guarantees: Abliteration does not guarantee complete removal of all safety behaviors
- Legal Compliance: Ensure usage complies with local laws and regulations
