## π Quick Start
|
| 42 |
+
|
| 43 |
+
### Installation
|
| 44 |
+
pip install transformers torch pillow
|
| 45 |
+
|
| 46 |
+
|
| 47 |
+
|
| 48 |
+
### Basic Usage
|
| 49 |
+
from transformers import BlipProcessor, BlipForConditionalGeneration
|
| 50 |
+
from PIL import Image
|
| 51 |
+
|
| 52 |
+
Load the Vijayawada traffic model
|
| 53 |
+
processor = BlipProcessor.from_pretrained("Charansaiponnada/vijayawada-traffic-accessibility-v2")
|
| 54 |
+
model = BlipForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("Charansaiponnada/vijayawada-traffic-accessibility-v2")
|
| 55 |
+
|
| 56 |
+
Process a traffic image
|
| 57 |
+
image = Image.open("vijayawada_traffic_scene.jpg")
|
| 58 |
+
inputs = processor(images=image, return_tensors="pt")
|
| 59 |
+
generated_ids = model.generate(**inputs, max_length=128, num_beams=5)
|
| 60 |
+
caption = processor.decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
|
| 61 |
+
|
| 62 |
+
print(f"Traffic description: {caption}")
|
| 63 |
+
|
| 64 |
+
Example output: "motorcycles parked on the road"
|
| 65 |
+
|
| 66 |
+
|
| 67 |
+
### Pipeline Usage (Simpler)
|
| 68 |
+
from transformers import pipeline
|
| 69 |
+
|
| 70 |
+
Create captioning pipeline
|
| 71 |
+
captioner = pipeline("image-to-text", model="Charansaiponnada/vijayawada-traffic-accessibility-v2")
|
| 72 |
+
|
| 73 |
+
Generate caption
|
| 74 |
+
result = captioner("vijayawada_street_scene.jpg")
|
| 75 |
+
print(result["generated_text"])
|
| 76 |
+
|
| 77 |
+
|
| 78 |
+
|
| 79 |
