Google’s new vision-language model, PaliGemma 2, upgrades the powerful SigLIP image encoder and Gemma 2 text decoder to enhance AI capabilities for understanding and generating image-based text. Available in three sizes (3B, 10B, 28B parameters) and supporting flexible input resolutions (224×224, 448×448, and 896×896), PaliGemma 2 is ideal for various tasks like detailed image captions and visual question answering. The models are pre-trained on diverse datasets and can be fine-tuned easily for specialized applications. Fine-tuned versions on the DOCCI dataset demonstrate improved captioning, including nuanced and factual descriptions. Developers can access tools for integration, fine-tuning, and quantization through Hugging Face. Compared to its predecessor, this release offers greater flexibility, scalability, and accuracy, empowering the community to tackle complex vision-language tasks.
