# Model Details
## Model Description
A series of CLIP ConvNeXt-XXLarge (a custom `timm` ConvNeXt size) models trained on LAION-2B (english), a subset of [LAION-5B](https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.08402), using [OpenCLIP](https://github.com/mlfoundations/open_clip).

| ----- | ------- | ---------- | ------------ | --------- |
| [convnext_xxlarge.laion2b_s34b_b82k-augreg](https://huggingface.co/laion/CLIP-convnext_xxlarge-laion2B-s34B-b82K-augreg) | LAION-2B | 256x256 | RRC (0.33, 1.0), RE (0.35), SD (0.1) | 79.1 |

RRC = Random Resize Crop (crop pcts), RE = Random Erasing (prob), SD = Stochastic Depth (prob) -- image tower only
The core training run was performed in pieces over a period of ~ 2 months. The global batch size for the core run was 81920. The last ~10% of training was re-done at a 95744 global batch size w/ higher LR and aug than original finish. The two were averaged together in a 'soup'. See more details in [Training Details](#training-details).
Goals:
* Push the size of largest convolutional CLIP image tower into the performance range of ViT-g to ViT-G w/ improved image size scaling for downstream use.
Firsts:
* Largest released ConvNeXt model pretrained (847M params w/ 198 GMAC and 125 MActs @ 256x256 for image)
* A non-ViT image tower CLIP model (with no previous image tower pretrain) achieving > 79% ImageNet top-1 zero-shot
The models utilize:
* the [timm](https://github.com/rwightman/pytorch-image-models) ConvNeXt-XXLarge model (`convnext_xxlarge`) as the image tower
* a standard projection at end of image tower
* a text tower with same size (with 1024, heads 16, depth 24) as ViT-H-14 and ViT-g-14 models
The models are trained at 256x256 image resolution. The size of the combined image + text CLIP model is 1.2B params w/ 222 GMAC and 146 MActs. At 256x256, the ConvNext-XXLarge sits just above a ViT-H-14 CLIP configuration in FLOPS and params while being lower in activation counts. It is well under both g-14 and G-14 while being between them in capabilities.

# Uses
As per the original [OpenAI CLIP model card](https://github.com/openai/CLIP/blob/d50d76daa670286dd6cacf3bcd80b5e4823fc8e1/model-card.md), this model is intended as a research output for research communities. We hope that this model will enable researchers to better understand and explore zero-shot, arbitrary image classification. We also hope it can be used for interdisciplinary studies of the potential impact of such model.
The OpenAI CLIP paper includes a discussion of potential downstream impacts to provide an example for this sort of analysis. Additionally, the LAION-5B blog (https://laion.ai/blog/laion-5b/) and upcoming paper include additional discussion as it relates specifically to the training dataset.
## Direct Use
Zero-shot image classification, image and text retrieval, among others.
## Downstream Use
Image classification and other image task fine-tuning, linear probe image classification, image generation guiding and conditioning, among others.
## Out-of-Scope Use
As per the OpenAI models,
**Any** deployed use case of the model - whether commercial or not - is currently out of scope. Non-deployed use cases such as image search in a constrained environment, are also not recommended unless there is thorough in-domain testing of the model with a specific, fixed class taxonomy. This is because our safety assessment demonstrated a high need for task specific testing especially given the variability of CLIP’s performance with different class taxonomies. This makes untested and unconstrained deployment of the model in any use case currently potentially harmful.
Certain use cases which would fall under the domain of surveillance and facial recognition are always out-of-scope regardless of performance of the model. This is because the use of artificial intelligence for tasks such as these can be premature currently given the lack of testing norms and checks to ensure its fair use.
Since the model has not been purposefully trained in or evaluated on any languages other than English, its use should be limited to English language use cases.
Further the above notice, the LAION-5B dataset used in training of these models has additional considerations, see below.
# Training Details
## Training Data
This model was trained with LAION-2B -- A 2 billion sample English subset of LAION-5B (https://laion.ai/blog/laion-5b/).
**IMPORTANT NOTE:** The motivation behind dataset creation is to democratize research and experimentation around large-scale multi-modal model training and handling of uncurated, large-scale datasets crawled from publically available internet. Our recommendation is therefore to use the dataset for research purposes. Be aware that this large-scale dataset is uncurated. Keep in mind that the uncurated nature of the dataset means that collected links may lead to strongly discomforting and disturbing content for a human viewer. Therefore, please use the demo links with caution and at your own risk. It is possible to extract a “safe” subset by filtering out samples based on the safety tags (using a customized trained NSFW classifier that we built). While this strongly reduces the chance for encountering potentially harmful content when viewing, we cannot entirely exclude the possibility for harmful content being still present in safe mode, so that the warning holds also there. We think that providing the dataset openly to broad research and other interested communities will allow for transparent investigation of benefits that come along with training large-scale models as well as pitfalls and dangers that may stay unreported or unnoticed when working with closed large datasets that remain restricted to a small community. Providing our dataset openly, we however do not recommend using it for creating ready-to-go industrial products, as the basic research about general properties and safety of such large-scale models, which we would like to encourage with this release, is still in progress.
## Training Procedure
The main training run was done at global batch size of 81920 for 256 checkpoint intervals of 135.6M samples for a total of ~34B samples seen over training.
Many difficulties w/ both model numerical stability and cluster stability and performance were encountered while training this model. Initial attempts to train with float16 AMP and default adam beta2 resulted in loss spikes and eventually NaN blow ups. `beta2` was reduced to 0.97 which helped, but the loss / zs curves were not tracking as expected. After switching to PyTorch nightlies, it was possible to use bfloat16 + AMP for training (as with rececnt H/14, g/14, and G/14 models), beta2 was returned to 0.98 and metrics improved.

JUWELS Booster has 4x A100 GPU per node w/ 4x HDR-200 IB adapters per node (200Gbit/sec per GPU). Stability setup used was 8x A100 GPU per node w/ 400Gbit/sec EFA networking per node (50 GBit/sec per GPU). Significant variation in training efficiency (throughput per GPU) as observed across the various configurations. The 1024 GPU configurations across both clusters were particularly prone to crashing (or very difficult to get running w/ a 'good' set of GPUs).
