## A Fine-tuned Radiology-focused Model based on Hugging Face's Idefics3 Model

This repository contains a fine-tuned version of the Hugging Face [Idefics3-8B-Llama3](https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceM4/Idefics3-8B-Llama3) model, built on top of the Meta Llama 3.1 8B architecture. Our model, `IDEFICS3_ROCO`, has been fine-tuned on the [Radiology Objects in Context (ROCO)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/eltorio/ROCO-radiology) dataset, a large-scale medical and multimodal imaging collection.

### Model Information

* **Base Model:** Idefics3-8B-Llama3
* **Fine-tuning Dataset:** Radiology Objects in Context (ROCO)
* **License:** Apache-2.0
* **Current Status:** Fine-tuning process is currently halted at checkpoint 2350 (out of 12,267) (in branch bug-restart) due to limitations with Colab Free T4 GPU unit. Contributions to complete the fine-tuning process are welcome!

### Training Progress Status

* Current checkpoint: 2350/12267 (~19% completed) (in branch bug-restart)
* Estimated remaining GPU time: ~57 hours
* Hardware requirements: T4 GPU with >16GB VRAM
* Last update: november, 8th 2024

### Fine-tuning Code

The fine-tuning code is available as a Jupyter Notebook in the [ROCO-radiology dataset repository](https://huggingface.co/datasets/eltorio/ROCO-radiology) on Hugging Face:

The [Junyper Notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/#fileId=https%3A//huggingface.co/eltorio/IDEFICS3_ROCO/blob/main/ROCO-idefics3.ipynb) [![Open In Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/assets/colab-badge.svg)](https://colab.research.google.com/#fileId=https://huggingface.co/eltorio/IDEFICS3_ROCO/blob/main/ROCO-idefics3.ipynb) contains the code to fine-tune the Idefics3-8B-Llama3 model on the ROCO dataset. The fine-tuning process is currently halted at checkpoint 640 (out of 24,000) due to limitations with Colab Free T4 GPU unit. Contributions to complete the fine-tuning process are welcome!
