🔍 Chain-of-Zoom VLM (8-bit Optimized)

Qwen2.5-VL-3B optimized with 8-bit quantization for Chain-of-Zoom super-resolution pipeline. Provides high-quality prompt generation for context-aware super-resolution.

🎯 Model Overview

This is a 8-bit quantized version of the VLM component for the Chain-of-Zoom super-resolution pipeline, specifically optimized for production deployment while maintaining exceptional quality.

⚡ Key Features

• Quantization: 8-bit precision for optimal memory/quality balance
• Memory Usage: 3.0GB (reduced from 6.0GB)
• Memory Reduction: 50% size reduction
• Quality Preservation: High quality maintained
• Hardware Compatibility: Optimized for Google Colab T4 GPU (16GB)
• Framework: Transformers compatible

📊 Chain-of-Zoom Pipeline Architecture

Chain-of-Zoom achieves extreme super-resolution (8x-32x) through intelligent autoregressive scaling:

Input Image → VLM Analysis → Enhanced Prompts → Diffusion SR → Output Image
     ↑             ↓              ↓               ↓           ↑
     └─── RAM Tags ←─── LoRA Adapt ←─── Scale Chain ←─── Iterate

🔧 Component Roles:

1. VLM (8-bit): Context-aware prompt generation
2. Diffusion (8-bit): High-quality super-resolution
3. RAM (4-bit): Image analysis and tagging
4. LoRA (4-bit): Cross-component optimization

🚀 Quick Start

# Install requirements
pip install transformers diffusers torch accelerate bitsandbytes

# Load VLM model
from transformers import AutoModel, BitsAndBytesConfig
import torch

# Configure quantization
quantization_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(
    load_in_8bit=True,
    llm_int8_threshold=6.0
)

# Load quantized model
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(
    "humbleakh/qwen2.5-vl-3b-8bit-chain-of-zoom",
    quantization_config=quantization_config,
    device_map="auto",
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
)
