Brief Introduction

NExt-GPT is built on top of existing pre-trained LLM, multimodal encoder and SoTA diffusion models, with sufficient end-to-end instruction tuning.

Video-LLaMA

  • Multimodal Encoding Stage. Leveraging established encoders to encode inputs in various modalities, where these representations are projected into language-like representations comprehensible to the LLM through a projection layer.
  • LLM Understanding and Reasoning Stage. Harnessing an existing open-sourced LLM as the core to process input information for semantic understanding and reasoning. The LLM not only directly generates text tokens but also produces unique “modality signal” tokens that serve as instructions to dictate the decoding layers whether & what modal content to output correspondingly.
  • Multimodal Generation Stage. Receiving the multimodal signals with specific instructions from LLM (if any), the Transformer-based output projection layers map the signal token representations into the ones that are understandable to following multimodal decoders.

For more technical details, kindly refer to the paper.

2. Environment Preparation [Back to Top]

Please first clone the repo and install the required environment, which can be done by running the following commands:

conda env create -n nextgpt python=3.8

conda activate nextgpt

# CUDA 11.6
conda install pytorch==1.13.1 torchvision==0.14.1 torchaudio==0.13.1 pytorch-cuda=11.6 -c pytorch -c nvidia

git clone https://github.com/NExT-GPT/NExT-GPT.git
cd NExT-GPT

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Training/Adapting NExt-GPT on Your Own

3.1. Preparing Pre-trained Checkpoint [Back to Top]

NExT-GPT is trained based on following excellent existing models. Please follow the instructions to prepare the checkpoints.

  • ImageBind is the unified image/video/audio encoder. The pre-trained checkpoint can be downloaded from here with version huge. Afterward, put the imagebind_huge.pth file at [./ckpt/pretrained_ckpt/imagebind_ckpt/huge].
  • Vicuna: first prepare the LLaMA by following the instructions [here]. Then put the pre-trained model at [./ckpt/pretrained_ckpt/vicuna_ckpt/].
  • Image Diffusion is used to generate images. NExT-GPT uses Stable Diffusion with version v1-5. (will be automatically downloaded)
  • Audio Diffusion for producing audio content. NExT-GPT employs AudioLDM with version l-full. (will be automatically downloaded)
  • Video Diffusion for the video generation. We employ ZeroScope with version v2_576w. (will be automatically downloaded)

3.2. Preparing Dataset [Back to Top]

Please download the following datasets used for model training:

A) T-X pairs data

B) Instruction data

3.3. Precomputing Embeddings [Back to Top]

In decoding-side alignment training, we minimize the distance between the representation of signal tokens and captions. To save costs of time and memory, we precompute the text embeddings for image, audio and video captions using the text encoder within the respective diffusion models.

Please run this command before the following training of NExT-GPT, where the produced embedding file will be saved at [./data/embed].

cd ./code/
python process_embeddings.py ../data/T-X_pair_data/cc3m/cc3m.json image ../data/embed/ runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5

Note of arguments:

  • args[1]: path of caption file;
  • args[2]: modality, which can be image, video, and audio;
  • args[3]: saving path of embedding file;
  • args[4]: corresponding pre-trained diffusion model name.

3.4. Training NExT-GPT [Back to Top]

First of all, please refer to the base configuration file [./code/config/base.yaml] for the basic system setting of overall modules.

Then, the training of NExT-GPT starts with this script:

cd ./code
bash scripts/train.sh

Specifying the command:

deepspeed --include localhost:0 --master_addr 127.0.0.1 --master_port 28459 train.py \
    --model nextgpt \
    --stage 1\
    --save_path  ../ckpt/delta_ckpt/nextgpt/7b_tiva_v0/\
    --log_path ../ckpt/delta_ckpt/nextgpt/7b_tiva_v0/log/

where the key arguments are:

  • --include: localhost:0 indicating the GPT cuda number 0 of deepspeed.
  • --stage: training stage.
  • --save_path: the directory which saves the trained delta weights. This directory will be automatically created.
  • --log_path: the directory which saves the log file.

The whole NExT-GPT training involves 3 steps:

  • Step-1: Encoding-side LLM-centric Multimodal Alignment. This stage trains the input projection layer while freezing the ImageBind, LLM, output projection layer.

    Just run the above train.sh script by setting: --stage 1

    Also refer to the running config file [./code/config/stage_1.yaml] and deepspeed config file [./code/dsconfig/stage_1.yaml] for more step-wise configurations.

    Note that the dataset used for training in this step is included dataset_name_list and the dataset name must precisely match the definition in [./code/dataset/catalog.py]

  • Step-2: Decoding-side Instruction-following Alignment. This stage trains the output projection layers while freezing the ImageBind, LLM, input projection layers.

    Just run the above train.sh script by setting: --stage 2

    Also refer to the running config file [./code/config/stage_2.yaml] and deepspeed config file [./code/dsconfig/stage_2.yaml] for more step-wise configurations.

  • Step-3: Instruction Tuning. This stage instruction-tune 1) the LLM via LoRA, 2) input projection layer and 3) output projection layer on the instruction dataset.

    Just run the above train.sh script by setting: --stage 3

    Also refer to the running config file [./code/config/stage_3.yaml] and deepspeed config file [./code/dsconfig/stage_3.yaml] for more step-wise configurations.

4. Running NExT-GPT System [Back to Top]

4.1. Preparing Checkpoints

First, loading the pre-trained NExT-GPT system.

4.2. Deploying Gradio Demo

Upon completion of the checkpoint loading, you can run the demo locally via:

cd ./code
bash scripts/app.sh

Specifying the key arguments as:

  • --nextgpt_ckpt_path: the path of pre-trained NExT-GPT params.
