kerasformers/qwen3-vl-8b-instruct

Pure-Keras 3 conversion of Qwen/Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct for kerasformers. One implementation runs unmodified on TensorFlow / Torch / JAX. This is the 8B variant, served here as image + text -> text via Qwen3VLProcessor; weights are stored in bfloat16.

For model details, license, and usage terms, see the upstream model card.

✨ Quick start

Text-only

python

import os
os.environ["KERAS_BACKEND"] = "torch"  # or "jax" / "tensorflow"

from kerasformers.models.qwen3_vl import Qwen3VLTextGenerate, Qwen3VLProcessor

model = Qwen3VLTextGenerate.from_weights("kerasformers/qwen3-vl-8b-instruct")
processor = Qwen3VLProcessor.from_weights("kerasformers/qwen3-vl-8b-instruct")

inputs = processor(conversation=[
    {"role": "user", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Hello, who are you?"}]}
])
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=64)
print(processor.decode(outputs[0]))

Image + text

python

import os
os.environ["KERAS_BACKEND"] = "torch"  # or "jax" / "tensorflow"

from PIL import Image
from kerasformers.models.qwen3_vl import Qwen3VLConditionalGenerate, Qwen3VLProcessor

model = Qwen3VLConditionalGenerate.from_weights("kerasformers/qwen3-vl-8b-instruct")
processor = Qwen3VLProcessor.from_weights("kerasformers/qwen3-vl-8b-instruct")

inputs = processor(conversation=[
    {"role": "user", "content": [
        {"type": "image", "image": Image.open("photo.jpg")},
        {"type": "text", "text": "Describe this image in one sentence."},
    ]}
])
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=64)
print(processor.decode(outputs[0]))
