Classes:

Functions:

Attributes:

MultiModalIsCached = dict[str, list[bool]] module-attribute

A collection of the is_cached flag for each item, with a similar structure as MultiModalKwargsItems.

MultiModalPromptUpdates = Mapping[str, list[Sequence[ResolvedPromptUpdate]]] module-attribute

A collection of prompt updates with a similar structure as MultiModalKwargsItems.

MultiModalPromptUpdatesApplyResult = Mapping[str, list[int | None]] module-attribute

For an item MultiModalPromptUpdates[k][i], MultiModalPromptUpdatesApplyResult[k][i] represents the index of the ResolvedPromptUpdate instance that has been applied, or None if none of the ResolvedPromptUpdate instances have been applied.

PromptSeq = str | list[int] module-attribute

A token sequence (list of token IDs) or text.

PromptUpdateContent = Callable[[int], PromptUpdateInfo] | PromptUpdateInfo module-attribute

Given the index of the processed item within modality, output the corresponding token sequence (or text).

For convenience, you can directly pass in the token sequence (or text) instead of a function if it does not depend on the input.

PromptUpdateInfo = PromptSeq | PromptUpdateDetails module-attribute

The token sequence or text that are part of the update.

If only part of the content corresponds to feature placeholders, you can use PromptUpdateDetails to specify which part.

PromptUpdateTarget = Callable[[int], UpdateTarget] | UpdateTarget module-attribute

Given the index of the processed item within modality, output the corresponding token sequence (or text).

For convenience, you can directly pass in the token sequence (or text) instead of a function if it does not depend on the input.

UpdateTarget = PromptSeq | PromptIndex module-attribute

The token sequence or text to update.

_QueueMatch = tuple[_UpdateQueue, PromptTargetMatch, int] module-attribute

A queue together with its next match and selected alternative index.

_UpdateQueue = deque[tuple[int, Sequence[ResolvedPromptUpdate]]] module-attribute

Items with the same ordered match rules, stored as (priority, alternatives).

Insert these tokens after a prefix Images::

PromptReplacement dataclass

Bases: PromptUpdate

Defines how to replace portions of an input prompt with placeholder tokens.

Example:

For each image, replace one <image> input placeholder in the prompt with a number of <image> feature placeholders equal to the feature size of the vision encoder:

PromptReplacement(
    modality="image",
    target="<image>",
    replacement="<image>" * image_feature_size,
)

As above, but further pad the feature placeholders with <image_bos> and <image_eos>, which are not supposed to be passed to the vision encoder:

PromptReplacement(
    modality="image",
    target="<image>",
    replacement=PromptUpdateDetails(
        full="".join(
            [
                "<image_bos>",

            ]
        ),
        features="<image>" * image_feature_size,
    ),
)

To avoid unnecessary tokenization during prompt replacement, we recommended passing token sequences instead of text:

PromptReplacement(
    modality="image",
    target=[image_token_id],
    replacement=PromptUpdateDetails(
        full=(

  • match (PromptTargetMatch) –

    The target range in the original prompt.

  • priority (int) –

    The original item order used to preserve match tie-breaking.

  • update (ResolvedPromptUpdate) –

    The selected update for the multimodal item.

  • update_idx (int) –

    The selected update's index within the item's alternatives.
