# Llama JoyCaption Beta One (MLX 8-bit)
|
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
+
MLX port of [fancyfeast/llama-joycaption-beta-one-hf-llava](https://huggingface.co/fancyfeast/llama-joycaption-beta-one-hf-llava), quantized to 8-bit for efficient inference on Apple Silicon.

+
[JoyCaption](https://github.com/fpgaminer/joycaption) is a free, open, and uncensored image captioning VLM built on Llama 3.1 8B and SigLIP2, designed for generating descriptive captions to train diffusion models.

## Usage with mlx-vlm
|

|
| 29 |
```bash
|
| 30 |
+
pip install mlx-vlm
|
| 31 |
```
|
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
```python
|
| 34 |
+
import mlx.core as mx
|
| 35 |
+
from mlx_vlm import load, generate
|
| 36 |
+
from mlx_vlm.prompt_utils import apply_chat_template
|
| 37 |
+
from mlx_vlm.utils import load_config
|
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
+
MODEL = "n0kovo/llama-joycaption-beta-one-hf-llava-mlx-8Bit"
|
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
+
model, processor = load(MODEL)
|
| 42 |
+
config = load_config(MODEL)
|
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
+
prompt = apply_chat_template(
|
| 45 |
+
processor,
|
| 46 |
+
config,
|
| 47 |
+
"Write a long descriptive caption for this image in a formal tone.",
|
| 48 |
+
num_images=1,
|
| 49 |
+
)
|
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
+
output = generate(
|
| 52 |
+
model,
|
| 53 |
+
processor,
|
| 54 |
+
prompt,
|
| 55 |
+
image="image.jpg",
|
| 56 |
+
max_tokens=512,
|
| 57 |
+
temperature=0.6,
|
| 58 |
+
)
|
| 59 |
+
print(output)
|

```
|

+
|

+
## Conversion Notes
|
| 63 |
+
|
| 64 |
+
- Language model weights quantized to 8-bit via `mlx-lm`
|
| 65 |
+
- Vision encoder weights quantized to 8-bit where layer dimensions allow (`group_size=64`); 28 MLP layers with incompatible dimensions (4304, not divisible by 64) are kept in float16
|
| 66 |
+
- Projector weights quantized to 8-bit
