A Visual Instruction Tuning Task is a instruction fine-tuning task that enhances Large Language Models with visual capabilities through instruction-based learning.
- Context:
- It can (typically) involve training a pre-trained language model on a dataset containing instructions or prompts paired with visual data, aiming to improve the model's performance on multimodal tasks.
- It can (often) leverage datasets with paired image-text data or structured tasks that require understanding and responding to visual content.
- It can enhance models' abilities in Visual Question Answering, Image Captioning, and other tasks requiring joint understanding of text and imagery.

- Example(s):
- ...
- Counter-Example(s):
- Standard language model fine-tuning using only text-based tasks.
- Direct training on visual tasks without using language-modeling principles or instructions.

- QUOTE: "Recent research has increasingly focused on visual instruction tuning on top of the pre-trained LLM. Prominent examples include LLaVA(-1.5/NeXT), MiniGPT-4, mPLUG-Owl(-2/Doc), Otter, InstructBLIP, Honeybee, SPHINX(-X) to name a few. There is also a rich body of literature on constructing instruction-tuning data enabling MLLMs for referring and grounding, image generation, and editing.
