	# LLaVA-Med v1.5 (based on [Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2](https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2))

	LLaVA-Med (Large Language and Vision Assistant for bioMedicine) is an open-source large vision-language model adapted for biomedical applications. Built upon LLaVA and enhanced through curriculum learning, LLaVA-Med is fine-tuned specifically for open-ended biomedical question answering tasks.

	This release aims to support research reproducibility for the corresponding paper, which demonstrates improved performance on biomedical VQA benchmarks such as PathVQA and VQA-RAD.

	📌 Note: For original model weights, refer to [microsoft/llava-med-v1.5-mistral-7b](https://huggingface.co/microsoft/llava-med-v1.5-mistral-7b).

	📃 Original paper: [LLaVA-Med: Training a Large Language-and-Vision Assistant for Biomedicine in One Day](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.00890).

	# 🔬 Experimental Usage in Libra's repo

	This model checkpoint is intended for experimental use and can be tested directly within the [Libra repository](https://github.com/X-iZhang/Libra).


	## Key Modification

	To enable the re-trained vision encoder during inference, ensure the following configuration is applied:

	```json
	"unfreeze_mm_vision_tower": true
	```
