## 🚀 Showcase

**langvision** is a modular, research-friendly framework for building and fine-tuning Vision Large Language Models (LLMs) with efficient Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) support. Whether you're working on image classification, visual question answering, or custom vision tasks, langvision provides the tools you need for parameter-efficient model adaptation.

---

## 🏁 Getting Started

Here's a minimal example to get you up and running:

```bash
pip install langvision
```

```python
import torch
from langvision.models.vision_transformer import VisionTransformer
from langvision.utils.config import default_config

# Create model
x = torch.randn(2, 3, 224, 224)
model = VisionTransformer(
    img_size=default_config['img_size'],
    patch_size=default_config['patch_size'],
    in_chans=default_config['in_chans'],
    num_classes=default_config['num_classes'],
    embed_dim=default_config['embed_dim'],
    depth=default_config['depth'],
    num_heads=default_config['num_heads'],
    mlp_ratio=default_config['mlp_ratio'],
    lora_config=default_config['lora'],
)

# Forward pass
with torch.no_grad():
    out = model(x)
    print('Output shape:', out.shape)
```

For advanced usage, CLI details, and more, see the [Documentation](docs/index.md) and [src/langvision/cli/finetune.py](src/langvision/cli/finetune.py).

## 🧩 Why langvision?

- **Parameter-efficient fine-tuning**: Plug-and-play LoRA adapters for fast, memory-efficient adaptation with minimal computational overhead
- **Modular ViT backbone**: Swap or extend components like patch embedding, attention, or MLP heads with ease
- **Unified model zoo**: Access and experiment with open-source visual models through a consistent interface
- **Research & production ready**: Clean, extensible codebase with comprehensive configuration options and robust utilities
- **Memory efficient**: Fine-tune large models on consumer hardware by updating only a small fraction of parameters

---

## 🏗️ Architecture Overview

langvision is built around a modular Vision Transformer (ViT) backbone, with LoRA adapters strategically injected into attention and MLP layers for efficient fine-tuning. This approach allows you to adapt large pre-trained models using only a fraction of the original parameters.

### Architecture Components

**Legend:**
- **Solid arrows**: Main data flow through the Vision Transformer
- **Dashed arrows**: LoRA adapter injection points in encoder layers
- **Blue boxes**: LoRA adapters for parameter-efficient fine-tuning

**Data Flow Steps:**
1. **Input Image** (224×224×3): Raw image data ready for processing
2. **Patch Embedding**: Image split into 16×16 patches and projected to embedding dimension
3. **CLS Token & Positional Encoding**: Classification token prepended with learnable position embeddings
4. **Transformer Encoder Stack**: Multi-layer transformer with self-attention and MLP blocks
   - **LoRA Integration**: Low-rank adapters injected into attention and MLP layers
   - **Efficient Updates**: Only LoRA parameters updated during fine-tuning
5. **LayerNorm**: Final normalization of encoder outputs
6. **MLP Head**: Task-specific classification or regression head
7. **Output**: Final predictions (class probabilities, regression values, etc.)
