Scaling up contrastive language-image pretraining (CLIP) is critical for empowering both vision and multimodal models. We present EVA-CLIP-18B, the largest and most powerful open-source CLIP model to date, with 18-billion parameters. With only 6-billion training samples seen, EVA-CLIP-18B achieves an exceptional 80.7% zero-shot top-1 accuracy averaged across 27 widely recognized image classification benchmarks, outperforming its forerunner EVA-CLIP (5-billion parameters) and other open-source CLIP models by a large margin. Remarkably, we observe a consistent performance improvement with the model size scaling of EVA-CLIP, despite maintaining a constant training dataset of 2-billion image-text pairs from LAION-2B and COYO-700M. This dataset is openly available and much smaller than the in-house datasets (e.g., DFN-5B, WebLI-10B) employed in other state-of-the-art CLIP models. EVA-CLIP-18B demonstrates the potential of EVA-style weak-to-strong visual model scaling. With our model weights made publicly available, we hope to facilitate future research in vision and multimodal foundation models.

Summary of EVA-CLIP performance

Scaling behavior of EVA-CLIP with zero-shot classification performance averaged across 27 image classification benchmarks, compared with the current state-of-the-art and largest CLIP models (224px). The diameter of each circle demonstrates the forward GFLOPs × the number of training samples seen. The performance of EVA-CLIP consistently improves as scaling up.

To construct Merged-2B, we merged 1.6 billion samples from LAION-2B dataset with 0.4 billion samples from COYO-700M.
The Merged-2B+ consists of all samples from Merged-2B, along with 20 millions samples from LAION-COCO and 23 millions samples from Merged-video including VideoCC3M, InternVid and WebVid-10M. Merged-video was added at the end of the training process.

It's important to note that all results presented in the paper are evaluated using PyTorch weights. There may be differences in performance when using Hugging Face (hf) models.

Zero-Shot Evaluation

We use CLIP-Benchmark to evaluate the zero-shot performance of EVA-CLIP models. Following vissl, we evauate the zero-shot video classification using 1 middle frame. Further details regarding the evaluation datasets can be found in our paper, particularly in Table 11.

You can leverage deepspeed.zero.Init() with deepspeed zero stage 3 if you have limited CPU memory. For loading a pretrained checkpoint in the context of using deepspeed.zero.Init(), it's advised to use the load_zero_partitions() function in eva_clip/factory.py.
