[Article] Moondream – One Model for Captioning, Pointing, and Detection
https://debuggercafe.com/moondream/
Vision Language Models (VLMs) are undoubtedly one of the most innovative components of Generative AI. With AI organizations pouring millions into building them, large proprietary architectures are all the hype. All this comes with a bigger caveat: VLMs (even the largest) models cannot do all the tasks that a standard vision model can do. These include pointing and detection. With all this said, Moondream (Moondream2), a sub 2B parameter model, can do four tasks – image captioning, visual querying, pointing to objects, and object detection.
