LLM-jp-3 VILA 14B

LLM-jp-3 VILA 14B adds image understanding to LLM-jp-3 13B Instruct. It combines a 428M SigLIP encoder with a 32M projector.

Research release

Projector training precedes joint language adaptation

The first stage trains the projector. Later stages train the projector and language model using image-text, interleaved and instruction data. The card discloses unresolved synthdog-ja dataset licensing: the authors proceeded on a CC-BY-SA assumption after no clarification was received.LLM-jp-3 VILA 14B official model card

Review the disclosed data caveat

Practical guidance. This release is useful for reproducing the earlier Japanese VLM approach. For a new redistribution plan, inspect the stated source-data conditions as well as the weight license.
