Introduction

SAIL-VL is a state-of-the-art vision-language model (VLM) developed by the Bytedance Douyin Content Team. The goal of SAIL-VL is to develope a high-performance vision language model that facilitates deployment on mobile devices and ensures accessibility and affordability for a broad audience. Through careful tuning of data and training recipes, SAIL-VL demonstrates that even a small VLM can benefit significantly from data scaling.

SAIL-VL-V1.5-pro-8B is the brand new version of our model based on SAIL-VL-v1.5-8B, which incorporates advanced techniques to achieve higher performance. For visual encoding, we use the stronger SAILViT-Huge ViT as our vision encoder. During training, we introduce an adaptive stream packing strategy to support higher throughput and longer sequences. Finally, we add more conversation and reasoning data, filter out noisy data and add a new training stage for videos. With all these updates, our model outperforms recent SoTA models of comparable sizes, InternVL-2.5-8B, Qwen2.5-VL-7B, Ovis2-8B and recently released InternVL-3-8B.

Please enjoy our model and feel free to contact us for any question or opportunity.

Training Recipes Overview:

Sail-VL benefits from high-quality data and carefully curated training recipes. We find the data quality, quantity and the design of curriculum training pipeline are crucial for model performance. With the proper design and data, the model's capacity scales effectively with data expansion at all stages, leading to enhanced performance.

Evaluation

SAIL-VL is competitive compared with recently released SoTAs, InternVL-2.5, Qwen2.5-VL, Ovis-2 and InternVL3.
