Llama 3.2 11B Vision PokemonCard OCR LoRA

Llama-3.2-11B-Vision-PokemonCard-OCR-LoRA

📋 Description

This is a Vision-Language Model (VLM) fine-tuned from Llama-3.2-11B-Vision-Instruct to perform Optical Character Recognition (OCR) on Pokémon trading cards. The model is trained to extract card names and card numbers in JSON format.

🎯 Purpose

This model specializes in:

• Recognizing Pokémon card names (English/Japanese)
• Extracting card numbers
• Outputting results in standardized JSON format

💻 Usage

1. Load Model

from unsloth import FastVisionModel
import torch

# Load base model
model_id = "unsloth/Llama-3.2-11B-Vision-Instruct-bnb-4bit"
model, tokenizer = FastVisionModel.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    load_in_4bit=True,
    use_gradient_checkpointing="unsloth",
)

# Load LoRA adapter
lora_model_path = "lora_pokemon_model"
model.load_adapter(lora_model_path, adapter_name="default")
FastVisionModel.for_inference(model)

2. Inference

from transformers import TextStreamer

# Path to card image
image_path = "path/to/pokemon_card.jpg"

# Instruction prompt
instruction = "You are an OCR expert specialized in Pokémon cards. Extract the card name and card number in JSON format."

# Prepare input
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": [
        {"type": "image"},
        {"type": "text", "text": instruction}
    ]}
]

input_text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, add_generation_prompt=True)
inputs = tokenizer(
    image_path,
    input_text,
    add_special_tokens=False,
    return_tensors="pt",
).to("cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")

# Generate
text_streamer = TextStreamer(tokenizer, skip_prompt=True)
outputs = model.generate(
    **inputs,
    streamer=text_streamer,
    max_new_tokens=128,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.9,
    use_cache=True,
)

# Decode result
result = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(result)

3. Example Output

Input: Pokémon card image

Output:

{
  "gt_parse": {
    "card_details": [
      {"name_en": "Sableye"},
      {"card_number": "61/113"}
    ]
  }
}

⚙️ System Requirements

• GPU: NVIDIA GPU with at least 15GB VRAM (T4/V100/A100 recommended)
• RAM: Minimum 16GB
• CUDA: 11.8+ or 12.x
• Python: 3.8+

📝 Training from Scratch

To retrain the model:

1. Prepare dataset according to the structure above
2. Run the notebook fineture_pokemon_card.ipynb
3. Model will be saved to lora_pokemon_model/

🔍 Limitations

• Model only recognizes English and Japanese card names and card numbers
• Accuracy depends on input image quality
• Does not support extraction of other information (HP, Type, Rarity, etc.)
