This model is the NF4 quantized version of the model: https://huggingface.co/inclusionAI/Ming-Lite-Omni-1.5, it can be directly loaded using the official demo code, let the project can be perform inference testing and learning research on a 24GB consumer GPU.
Here is only the quantized weights of the main model part. Other parts such as: connector / mlp / talker / transformer / vae, please download from the official repo, and the transformer part can also be quantized as needed.
Ming-lite-omni v1.5 is a comprehensive upgrade to the full-modal capabilities of Ming-lite-omni. It significantly improves performance across tasks including image-text understanding, document understanding, video understanding, speech understanding and synthesis, and image generation and editing. Built upon Ling-lite-1.5, Ming-lite-omni v1.5 has a total of 20.3 billion parameters, with 3 billion active parameters in its MoE (Mixture-of-Experts) section. It demonstrates highly competitive results in various modal benchmarks compared to industry-leading models.
📌 Updates
[2025.07.15] 🔥 We release Ming-lite-omni v1.5 with significant improvements across all modalities.
Compared to Ming-lite-omni, Ming-lite-omni v1.5 features key optimizations in the following 3 areas:
Enhanced Video Understanding—MRoPE & Curriculum Learning: Ming-lite-omni v1.5 significantly improves video understanding through MRoPE's 3D spatiotemporal encoding and a curriculum learning strategy for handling long videos, enabling precise comprehension of complex visual sequences.
Refined Multi-modal Generation-Consistency & Perception Control: Ming-lite-omni v1.5 offers superior generation, featuring dual-branch image generation with ID & Scene Consistency Loss for coherent editing, and perception enhancement for detailed visual control. Its new audio decoder and BPE encoding also deliver high-quality, real-time speech synthesis.
Comprehensive Data Upgrades-Broadened & Refined fine-grained Data: Ming-lite-omni v1.5's capabilities are built on extensive data upgrades, including new structured text data, expanded high-quality product information, and refined fine-grained visual and speech perception data (including dialects). This provides a richer, more accurate foundation for all modalities.
Evaluation
In various modality benchmark tests, Ming-lite-omni v1.5 demonstrates highly competitive results compared to industry-leading models of similar scale.

Model Downloads
You can download our latest model from both Huggingface and ModelScope. For previous version model like Ming-Lite-Omni v1, Please refer to this link.
At last, start the container with the current repo directory mounted:
docker run -it --gpus all -v "$(pwd)":/workspace/Ming ming:py310-cu121 ming:py310-cu121 /bin/bash
You can run the model with python interface. You may download the huggingface model in the repo directory first (.../Ming/) or mount the downloaded model path when starting the container.
Example Usage
We provide a step-by-step running example:
Step 1 - Download the source code
git clone https://github.com/inclusionAI/Ming.git
cd Ming
Step 2 - Download the model weights and create a soft link to the source code directory
Note: We test the examples on hardware of NVIDIA H800-80GB/H20-96G with CUDA 12.4. Loading inclusionAI/Ming-Lite-Omni-1.5 in bfloat16 takes about 42G GPU memory.
Gradio Demo
We provide a graphical user interface based on Gradio to facilitate the use of Ming-lite-omni.
Install Gradio dependencies
shell
1pip install gradio
2pip install gradio_client
Start the Gradio server
python gradio_demo.py
