Model Summary: Granite-vision-3.3-2b is a compact and efficient vision-language model, specifically designed for visual document understanding, enabling automated content extraction from tables, charts, infographics, plots, diagrams, and more. Granite-vision-3.3-2b introduces several novel experimental features such as image segmentation, doctags generation, and multi-page support (see Experimental Capabilities for more details) and offers enhanced safety when compared to earlier Granite vision models. The model was trained on a meticulously curated instruction-following data, comprising diverse public and synthetic datasets tailored to support a wide range of document understanding and general image tasks. Granite-vision-3.3-2b was trained by fine-tuning a Granite large language model with both image and text modalities.
Evaluations: We compare the performance of granite-vision-3.3-2b with previous versions of granite-vision models. Evaluations were done using the standard llms-eval benchmark and spanned multiple public benchmarks, with particular emphasis on document understanding tasks while also including general visual question-answering benchmarks.
