MiniMind-V's lightweight technology advantages
With a lightweight architecture with a parameter size of only 26 million, MiniMind-V is still able to maintain usable visual language comprehension, which makes it particularly suitable for resource-constrained application scenarios.
- Parameter streamlining:Total parameters are controlled at 26M, much smaller than mainstream VLMs
- Architecture Optimization:Uses small language model (dim=512/768, n_layers=8/16)
- Computationally efficient:Freezing visual encoder parameters dramatically reduces arithmetic requirements
- Device Compatibility:Runs on consumer GPUs such as the NVIDIA 3090
This lightweight design enables MiniMind-V to be valuable in scenarios such as embedded devices and mobile applications. Developers can use this project to quickly validate the feasibility of device-side visual language applications and lay the foundation for subsequent productized development.
