Description
Intern Large Models (InternLM) is an initiative by Shanghai AI Laboratory dedicated to developing and open-sourcing high-quality Large Language Models (LLMs) and Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs). The project aims to provide a comprehensive ecosystem for AI development and application, encompassing both advanced models and a full-stack toolchain.
Key models developed under the InternLM umbrella include InternVL, an advanced multimodal large language model series known for its superior overall performance. Intern-S1 is a scientific multimodal large model offering strong general capabilities and state-of-the-art performance on various scientific tasks. The InternLM series itself comprises multilingual foundation and chat models. For specialized tasks, InternLM-Math provides state-of-the-art bilingual math reasoning LLMs, while InternLM-XComposer is a vision-language large model designed for advanced text-image comprehension and composition.
Complementing these models, InternLM provides a robust toolchain. XTuner is a toolkit for efficient LLM fine-tuning, supporting diverse models and algorithms. LMDeploy offers tools for compressing, deploying, and serving LLMs. Lagent is a lightweight framework for building LLM-based agents, and OpenCompass serves as a platform for large model evaluation with a fair, open, and reproducible benchmark.
The project actively engages with the AI community, regularly publishing research and making its models and tools accessible. This commitment to open-sourcing fosters collaboration and accelerates innovation in the field of large language models. The team behind InternLM is actively involved in research, with recent papers focusing on areas like multimodal LLM evaluation and reinforcement learning for captioning.
InternLM's offerings cater to researchers, developers, and organizations looking to leverage cutting-edge LLM and MLLM technology. The availability of open-source models, coupled with practical development and deployment tools, makes it a valuable resource for a wide range of AI applications, from scientific research to creative content generation and intelligent agent development.
