async function generateImage(prompt) {
  // Process text prompt
  const inputs = processor(prompt, {
    task: "text-to-image",
    return_tensors: "pt"
  });

  // Generate image tokens
  const outputs = await model.generate(inputs.input_ids, {
    max_new_tokens: 576,
    do_sample: true,
    temperature: 0.7,
    top_p: 0.9
  });

  console.log("โœจ Image generated successfully!");
  return outputs;
}

// Example usage
await generateImage("A majestic dragon flying over a medieval castle at sunset");

Image Understanding

async function understandImage(imageElement, question = "What do you see?") {
  // Process image and question
  const inputs = processor(imageElement, question, {
    task: "image-to-text", 
    return_tensors: "pt"
  });

  // Generate description
  const outputs = await model.generate(inputs.input_ids, {
    max_new_tokens: 256,
    do_sample: false
  });

  // Decode response
  const description = processor.decode(outputs[0], {
    skip_special_tokens: true
  });

  return description;
}

// Example usage
const description = await understandImage(
  document.getElementById("my-image"),
  "Describe the objects and scene in detail"
);

Multimodal Chat

javascript
class JanusChat {
  constructor(model, processor) {
    this.model = model;
    this.processor = processor;
    this.conversation = [];
  }

  async chat(message, image = null) {
    // Add user message to conversation
    this.conversation.push({ role: "user", content: message, image });

    // Process conversation
    const inputs = this.processor(this.conversation, {
      return_tensors: "pt"
    });

    // Generate response
    const outputs = await this.model.generate(inputs.input_ids, {
      max_new_tokens: 512,
      temperature: 0.7,
      do_sample: true
    });

    const response = this.processor.decode(outputs[0], {
      skip_special_tokens: true
    });

    // Add assistant response
    this.conversation.push({ role: "assistant", content: response });

    return response;
  }
}

// Example usage
const chat = new JanusChat(model, processor);
await chat.chat("What's in this image?", imageElement);
await chat.chat("Can you create a similar image but with different colors?");
