Dataset Card for LLaVA-NeXT

We provide the whole details of LLaVA-NeXT Dataset. In this dataset, we include the data that was used in the instruction tuning stage for LLaVA-NeXT and LLaVA-NeXT(stronger).

Aug 30, 2024: We update the dataset with raw format (de-compress it for json file and images with structured folder), you can directly download them if you are familiar with LLaVA data format.

Dataset Sources

Compared to the instruction data mixture for LLaVA-1.5, following changes were made:

• High-quality User Instruct Data. Our definition of high-quality visual instruction-following data hinges on two principal criteria: First, the diversity of task instructions, ensuring adequately represent a broad spectrum of user intents that are likely to be encountered in real-world scenarios, particularly during the model’s deployment phase. Second, the superiority of responses is critical, with the objective of soliciting favorable user feedback. To achieve this, we consider two data sources: (1) Existing GPT-V data. LAION-GPT-V and ShareGPT-4V. (2) To further facilitate better visual conversation for more scenarios, we collect a small 15K visual instruction tuning dataset covering different applications. The instructions and images come from LLaVA demo, which are real-world users requests. We carefully filter samples that may have privacy concerns or are potentially harmful, and generate the response with GPT-4V.
• Multimodal Document/Chart Data. (1) We remove TextCaps from our training data as we realize that TextCaps uses the same set of training images as TextVQA. This allows us to better understand the zero-shot OCR capability of our model when evaluating TextVQA during development. To maintain and further improve our model’s OCR capability, we replace TextCaps with DocVQA and SynDog-EN. (2) Motivated by Qwen-VL-7B-Chat, we further add ChartQA, DVQA, and AI2D for better chart and diagram understanding.

Due to license issue and policy concern, 15k instruction data from user data were not released and the total data mixture under this repo contains around 779k rows.

Uses

This dataset is used for the training of the LLaVA-NeXT model. We only allow the use of this dataset for academic research and education purpose. For OpenAI GPT-4 generated data, we recommend the users to check the OpenAI Usage Policy.

Code Guidance

To help audience to better understand our dataest, we upload them into Hugging Face Dataset compatible format. During LLaVA-NeXT training, we use the json and image folder to store the data.

Here we provide the code guidance to convert the dataset into the format of LLaVA-NeXT, and conduct the training of the LLaVA-NeXT model with converted dataset.

import os
from datasets import load_dataset
from tqdm import tqdm
import json

data = load_dataset("lmms-lab/LLaVA-NeXT-Data", split="train")

image_folder = "<your_image_folder>"

converted_data = []

for da in tqdm(data):
    json_data = {}
    json_data["id"] = da["id"]
    if da["image"] is not None:
        json_data["image"] = f"{da['id']}.jpg"
        da["image"].save(os.path.join(image_folder, json_data["image"]))
    json_data["conversations"] = da["conversations"]
    converted_data.append(json_data)


with open("<your_json_file>.json", "w") as f:
    json.dump(converted_data, f, indent=4, ensure_ascii=False)
