𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱'𝘀 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹!

We’re thrilled to share 𝗦𝗺𝗼𝗹𝗩𝗟𝗠 (256M & 500M)—the smallest Visual Language Models ever built. Think: running on <1GB of GPU memory—you can fine-tune it on your laptop and run it on your toaster!

Why It’s Game-Changing:
- 𝗢𝘂𝘁𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝘀 𝗟𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝘀: Even the 256M model surpasses our SOTA 80B-parameter model from just 17 months ago. Over 300x reduction!
𝗠𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘆 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆: The 256M version delivers 80% of our 2.2B model’s performance, and the 500M version hits 90%
𝗟𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴-𝗙𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵: SmolVLM integrates with ColiPali for state-of-the-art retrieval speeds—on par with models 10x bigger. That means cheaper, faster indexing and real-world impact.

What’s New Under the Hood:
- 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗘𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗿: Smaller overall size (400M -> 93M), but with higher resolution.
- 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗶𝘅𝗲𝗹𝘀/𝗧𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗻: 4096 vs. 1820—more efficient image processing.
- 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗧𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Faster training and a performance boost.

ByteDance just dropped SA2VA: a new family of vision LMs combining Qwen2VL/InternVL and SAM2 with MIT license 💗 ByteDance/sa2va-model-zoo-677e3084d71b5f108d00e093

> The models are capable of tasks involving vision-language understanding and visual referrals (referring segmentation) both for images and videos ⏯️

> The models come in 1B, 4B and 8B and are based on InternVL2.5 for base architecture and Qwen2, Qwen2.5 and InternLM2 for language model part (depending on the checkpoint)

> The model is very interesting, it has different encoders for different modalities each (visual prompt, text prompt, image and video) then it concatenates these to feed into LLM 💬

the output segmentation tokens are passed to SAM2, to sort of match text (captions or semantic classes) to masks ⤵️

> Their annotation pipeline is also interesting, they seems to use two open large vision LMs to refine the annotations, and have different levels of descriptions to provide consistency.

I was initially pretty sceptical about Meta's Coconut paper [1] because the largest perf gains were reported on toy linguistic problems. However, these results on machine translation are pretty impressive!

https://x.com/casper_hansen_/status/1875872309996855343

Together with the recent PRIME method [2] for scaling RL, reasoning for open models is looking pretty exciting for 2025!

supercharge your LLM apps with smolagents 🔥

however cool your LLM is, without being agentic it can only go so far

enter smolagents: a new agent library by Hugging Face to make the LLM write code, do analysis and automate boring stuff!

Here's our blog for you to get started https://huggingface.co/blog/smolagents

This paper ( HuatuoGPT-o1, Towards Medical Complex Reasoning with LLMs (2412.18925)) has a really interesting recipe for inducing o1-like behaviour in Llama models:

* Iteratively sample CoTs from the model, using a mix of different search strategies. This gives you something like Stream of Search via prompting.
* Verify correctness of each CoT using GPT-4o (needed because exact match doesn't work well in medicine where there are lots of aliases)
* Use GPT-4o to reformat the concatenated CoTs into a single stream that includes smooth transitions like "hmm, wait" etc that one sees in o1
* Use the resulting data for SFT & RL
* Use sparse rewards from GPT-4o to guide RL training. They find RL gives an average ~3 point boost across medical benchmarks and SFT on this data already gives a strong improvement.

Applying this strategy to other domains could be quite promising, provided the training data can be formulated with verifiable problems!

Apollo is a new family of open-source video language models by Meta, where 3B model outperforms most 7B models and 7B outperforms most 30B models 🧶

✨ the models come in 1.5B https://huggingface.co/Apollo-LMMs/Apollo-1_5B-t32, 3B https://huggingface.co/Apollo-LMMs/Apollo-3B-t32 and 7B https://huggingface.co/Apollo-LMMs/Apollo-7B-t32 with A2.0 license, based on Qwen1.5 & Qwen2
✨ the authors also release a benchmark dataset https://huggingface.co/spaces/Apollo-LMMs/ApolloBench

The paper has a lot of experiments (they trained 84 models!) about what makes the video LMs work ⏯️

Try the demo for best setup here https://huggingface.co/spaces/Apollo-LMMs/Apollo-3B
they evaluate sampling strategies, scaling laws for models and datasets, video representation and more!
> The authors find out that whatever design decision was applied to small models also scale properly when the model and dataset are scaled 📈 scaling dataset has diminishing returns for smaller models
> They evaluate frame sampling strategies, and find that FPS sampling is better than uniform sampling, and they find 8-32 tokens per frame optimal
> They also compare image encoders, they try a variation of models from shape optimized SigLIP to DINOv2
they find google/siglip-so400m-patch14-384 to be most powerful 🔥
> they also compare freezing different parts of models, training all stages with some frozen parts give the best yield

They eventually release three models, where Apollo-3B outperforms most 7B models and Apollo 7B outperforms 30B models 🔥

We outperform Llama 70B with Llama 3B on hard math by scaling test-time compute 🔥

How? By combining step-wise reward models with tree search algorithms :)

We show that smol models can match or exceed the performance of their much larger siblings when given enough "time to think"

We're open sourcing the full recipe and sharing a detailed blog post.

In our blog post we cover:

📈 Compute-optimal scaling: How we implemented DeepMind's recipe to boost the mathematical capabilities of open models at test-time.

🎄 Diverse Verifier Tree Search (DVTS): An unpublished extension we developed to the verifier-guided tree search technique. This simple yet effective method improves diversity and delivers better performance, particularly at large test-time compute budgets.

🧭 Search and Learn: A lightweight toolkit for implementing search strategies with LLMs and built for speed with vLLM

Here's the links:

- Blog post: HuggingFaceH4/blogpost-scaling-test-time-compute

- Code: https://github.com/huggingface/search-and-learn

Enjoy!
